Abstract

In a shotcrete support system, the cooperation of the ground and the shotcrete lining makes it possible to transfer the shear stress to the shotcrete lining, which is dedicated to form a stable structure. In this study, a homogeneous model ground with constant strength was produced by using gypsum and the tunnel was excavated with a top heading method under the definite initial stress. During the excavation, the stress in the ground around the tunnel and the deformation of shotcrete lining were measured, The tensile stress was generated in tangential direction in the ground near the tunnel and in the shotcrete lining due to tunnel excavation. This shows the unified behavior of the ground and shotcrete lining, which is the most typical characteristic of the shotcrete support. As a result, the rates of in-situ stress during the excavation at a top boundary line was 9% and at top arch heading 15%. It was 48% right after excavating the heading and 94% before cutting the bench.

숏크리트 지보 구조는 지반과 숏크리트가 일체화되어 숏크리트 라이닝에 전단력의 전달이 가능한 터널구조로서 안정한 구조물을 형성하는데 기여한다. 본 연구에서는 석고를 사용하여 일정한 강도를 가진 균질한 모형지반을 제작하였다. 하중재하에 의해 일정한 원지반 응력을 조성한 후 상$.$하부반단면 굴착공법으로 굴착하며 굴착시 터널 주변지반의 응력상태와 라이닝의 거동특성을 계측하였다. 측정결과 굴착으로 인하여 터널 주변지반과 라이닝에 접선방향으로 인장응력이 발생되었다. 단계굴착에 의한 응력 해방율은 상부 경계선 확대천공시 9%, 상부반단면 아치부 확대천공시 15%, 상부반단면 경계선 절단 즉시 48%, 안정화 후 하부반단면 굴착전 94%로 나타났다.
