Excavation and Construction Technology of Diversion Tunnel under Complex Geological Conditions

Na He and Xianggang Zhang    

Resumen

During the construction of a diversion tunnel, geological problems often include faults, fragile strata, hard rock formations, karst landforms, etc., which may have adverse effects on the excavation and construction of the diversion tunnel. Based on the analysis of the engineering overview, this study designed a new construction technology for the excavation of water diversion tunnels in hard rock layers and high-karst areas. Based on tunnel seismic prediction (TSP) technology to achieve advanced geological prediction, combined with actual geological conditions, construction difficulties are analyzed. Then, detection technology is used to collect two-way travel time, amplitude, and waveform data. By processing and analyzing the detection image, the spatial orientation and length of the main tunnel during the construction of the diversion tunnel are calculated. After completing the construction ventilation and wind, water, and electricity layout, the excavation construction procedure is designed. In the specific excavation design, the tunnel curtain excavation technology, tunnel body excavation and support technology, excavation grouting technology, important unfavorable geological tunnel section excavation technology, upper/lower flat section excavation technology, upper/lower curved section excavation technology, and vertical shaft section excavation technology were elaborated. Finally, a plan was made for the reuse process of slag material and a construction quality control system was established. During the testing process, it was found that the antidamage coefficient of the side wall was above 0.9 after using the technology described in this article. Therefore, it indicates that the excavation construction technology designed in this article can ensure the support capacity of the side wall of the diversion tunnel, which is suitable for the excavation of the main tunnel during the construction of the diversion tunnel.
