Abstract
As more and more TBM tunnels are constructed under complex conditions such as high stress and fault fracture zones, large deformation disasters of squeezing soft surrounding rocks occur frequently. However, TBM method shows poor adaptability to major engineering challenges. Equipment damage, track deviation and support structures failure are widely observed. It is important to propose an effective support scheme and to fully clarifying the mechanical properties of the support structures in TBM tunnel. In this case, this paper aims to conduct laboratory and numerical tests considering steel–concrete interface bond-slip behavior so as to verify the effectiveness of the proposed support scheme. Thus, the quantitative relationship between arch type, arch spacing, longitudinal connection strength, concrete strength, steel fiber content, and tunnel surrounding rock deformation can be obtained. The research results show that the support scheme proposed in this paper shows good applicability for deformation control of TBM tunnels under squeezing soft rock conditions, which provides a reference for TBM tunnel support under squeezing soft rock conditions.
