Abstract
A position conflict exists between Harbin Urban Rail Transit Line No.1 and the branch tunnel of "7381" civil air defense tunnel. Intense tunnel interaction occurs when Line No.1 is perpendicularly tunneled across the branch tunnel. The investigation of the interaction is necessary. A 3D numerical simulation is established using FLAC3D and the vault deformation around the tunnel intersection is analyzed. The vault settlement of Line No.1 increases by 1.4 times during crosswise tunneling, while the vault settlement of branch tunnel increases 21.0mm in addition. The affected region of the tunnel intersection is further revealed. The affected length of the vault of Line No.1 and branch tunnel is 7.5 times the diameter and 6 times the width respectively. In combination with monitoring data, the reinforcement effect is studied at last. Both the vault settlement and surface settlement are well controlled in the tunnel intersection.
