Abstract
In this study, the behavior of a shallow 2-arch tunnel during the excavation in the sandy ground containing vertical discontinuity plane was experimentally studied. Load transfer mechanism in the pillar caused by a 2-arch tunnel excavation was observed. The position of the vertical discontinuity plane was varied. Model tests were carried out in the normal construction sequence of 2-arch tunnel. Test results-showed that the load transfer caused by the 2-arch tunnel excavation was concentrated in the discontinuity plane, and was cut by the discontinuity plane, so no load transfer took place above the discontinuity plane. It was also shown that the effect of adjacent tunnel excavation on the pillar load and the ground deformation was greater when excavating the upper half-face of the main tunnel, more than when excavating the lower half-face.
본 논문에서는 연직 불연속면을 포함하는 지반에서 얕은 심도 2-arch 터널 굴착에 따른 거동특성을 실험적으로 연구하였으며, 2-arch 터널 굴착에 따른 필러부 하중전이 특성을 관찰하였다. 연직 불연속면의 위치를 변화시키고, 2-arch터널 시공단계별로 모형실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과, 2-arch 터널 굴착에 따른 이완하중이 불연속면이 위치한 곳에 집중되었고, 불연속면에 차단되어 불연속면을 넘어서까지 하중이 전이되지는 않았다. 또한 인접한 터널의 하반을 굴착할 때보다 상반을 굴착할 때에 필러부와 지반변형에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
