Abstract
In order to study the applicability of high-pressure gas expansion rock-cracking technology in hard rock tunnel near historic sites, theoretical analysis, field tests as well as vibration monitoring are conducted to obtain suitable rock mass cracking parameters for tunnel excavation. The results show that the ideal effect of rock mass cracking can be achieved with the cutting mode of “central vertical empty hole + double wedge cutting hole” and the auxiliary hole network parameter of “0.8 m × 0.7 m”. The measured vibration velocity is less than 0.1 cm/s at the monitoring point 60 m away from the tunnel face in the field test, which meets the vibration control requirements of the historic sites in the process of tunnel excavation. The research results show that as long as there is a high quality of hole plugging and no punching, the high-pressure gas expansion rock-cracking technology has the advantages of little vibration, low noise and less flying rocks, which provides a technical reference for the excavation of hard rock tunnels near ancient buildings and historic sites.
