As construction for road tunnel is increasing, various geotechnical conditions can be faced during the construction stage. Especially, if the tunnel is located in limestone area, many kinds of site investigations such as in-situ boring, electrical resistance survey, TSP(Tunnel Seismic Prediction) and etc., are conducted before and during the construction. By conducting these preliminary tests, location, size, and filling materials in limestone cavities can be approximately estimated. Once some cavities which can be harmful for tunnel safety are predicted, methods for ground reinforcement and tunnel excavation, corresponding those ground conditions, have to be established and verified by measurement data and numerical analysis. If necessary, invert lining should be also considered. In this paper, by studying some cases of tunnels constructed in limestone area, predicted problems during construction and rational countermeasures for those are presented.

For the construction of twin single track subway tunnels by NATM within close proximity of existing vehicle underpass in the highly congested area of downtown Seoul, finite element analyses were performed to evaluate the ground responses during tunnelling and also the stability and safety of the underpass structure and subway tunnels. Results of the analyses indicated the need to improve the soil beneath the underpass, and pre-grouting was carried out prior to the tunnel excavation. During tunnel construction field measurement program was implemented to confirm the results of anslyses and to control the tunnel construction procedures, thus ensuring stability of the existing structres.

PURPOSES : It is difficult to estimate tunnel stability because of lack of timely information during tunnel excavation. Tunnel deformability refers to the capacity of rock to strain under applied loads or unloads during tunnel excavation. This study was conducted to analyze a methods of pre-evaluation of stability during tunnel construction using the critical strain concept, which is applied to the results of tunnel settlement data and unconfined compression strength of intact rock or rock mass at the tunnel construction site. METHODS : Based on the critical strain concept, the pre-evaluation of stability of a tunnel was performed in the Daegu region, at a tunnel through andesite and granite rock. The critical strain concept is a method of predicting tunnel behavior from tunnel crown settlement data using the critical strain chart that is obtained from the relationship between strain and the unconfined compression strength of intact rock in a laboratory. RESULTS : In a pre-evaluation of stability of a tunnel, only actually measured crown settlement data is plotted on the lower position of the critical strain chart, to be compared with the total displacement of crown settlement, including precedent settlement and displacement data from before the settlement measurement. However, both cases show almost the same tunnel behavior. In an evaluation using rock mass instead of intact rock, the data for the rock mass strength is plotted on the lower portion of the critical strain chart, as a way to compare to the data for intact rock strength. CONCLUSIONS : From the results of the pre-evaluation of stability of the tunnel using the critical strain chart, we reaffirmed that it is possible to promptly evaluate the stability of a tunnel under construction. Moreover, this research shows that a safety evaluation using the actual instrumented crown settlement data with the unconfined compression strength of intact rock, rather than with the unconfined compression strength of a rock mass in the tunnel working face, is more conservative.

During the tunnel construction the major failure mode can be categorized as: tunnel failure just after the tunnel excavation without support, failure after application of shotcrete and finally failure after setting the concrete lining. The failure mode just after the tunnel excavation without support, can be further classified as : bench failure, crown failure, face failure, full face failure, failure due to weak strata and failure due to overburden. Moreover the failure after application of shotcrete is classified as heading face failure, settlement of shotcrete support, local failure of shotcrete lining and invert shotcrete. To find out the major causes of tunnel collapse, the investigation was done in case of the second phase of Seoul subway construction. The investigation results depicted that the major causes of tunnel collapse were due to the weak layer of rock/fault and sudden influx of ground water from the tunnel crown. While the investigation results of the mountain road tunnels construction have shown that the major causes of tunnel failure were inadequate analysis of tunnel face mapping results, intersection of faults and limestone cavities. In this paper some recent measurement in order to mitigate such tunnel collapse are presented

The behaviour of ground induced by tunneling of 2arch tunnels may differ from the one caused by usual type tunnels. This paper describe the behaviour created by the size of pilot tunnel and the condition on the construction method of center piller Also, loads acting on the supports of the first tunnel and the center pillar during the excavation of second tunnel is investigated by numerical analyses. The results of numerical analyses are compared to the data records of measurement results, i.e. force on the support system and ground displacement.

터널시공 중 터널 완공 후에 발생할 최종변위를 미리 예측하는 것은 터널의 역학적 안정성을 평가하는데 중요하다. 시공 중인 터널에서 계측한 천단 및 내공변위와 변위함수를 이용하여 터널을 시공 완료하였을 때 발생할 터널의 최종변위를 예측하였다. 연구대상 터널은 상반과 하반으로 나누어 시공하였고 터널상반 시공 중 설치한 계측핀을 이용하여 하반막장이 이 계측핀을 통과할 때 발생한 초기변위를 계측할 수 있었다. 터널하반 시공 중 계측한 변위를 이용하여 하반굴착에 따른 변위 증가량을 변위함수로 예측한 결과 터널시공 완료 후 계측한 증가량과 거의 같았다.

Currently an increasing number of urban tunnels with small overburden are excavated according to the principle of the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM). Therefore, a possibility of a tunnel collapse during excavation is getting higher in a proportionate manner. This paper will analyze causes the failure mechanism of a shallow NATM tunnel for different geological conditions, ground-water and invert solutions by investigation typical collapse site during tunnel construction. In this paper, this analysis performed two phase, firstly, the field investigation considering displacement measurement, ground-water level, geological characteristic, secondly, the numerical simulation considering the exist of invert construction and the effect of ground-water. It has been found that environmental factors such as state of underground water or construction sequences could influence failure mechanism of a shallow tunnel.

본 연구에서는 굴착이 진행 중인 터널 시공현장에서 계측변위를 활용하여 신속하게 터널의 안정성을 정량적으로 평가할 수 있는 기술을 새롭게 제안하였다. 이를 위해 먼저, 현재 국내외적으로 터널 시공현장에서 활용하고 있는 계측관리지침 사례를 조사하였다. 그러나 이들 지침은 그 근거가 뚜렷하지 못하고, 터널시공현장마다 서로 달라 통일적인 관리가 이루어지지 못할 뿐만 아니라 터널 계측과 관련된 다양한 제약으로 인해 현장 실무에서 활용도와 그 중요성이 높지 않은 것을 알 수 있었다. 터널굴착에 의해 발생하는 변위에 대한 기준 설정을 위해서 본 연구에서는 한계변형률 개념을 새롭게 도입하였으며 이를 활용하여 시공 중인 터널의 안정성 평가 기법을 새롭게 제안하였다. 또한 한계변형률 개념을 터널 실무에 활용하기 위해서, 지반굴착에 의해 발생하는 변위발생 특징을 종합적으로 검토하였으며, 터널굴착에 의해 발생하는 총변위를[굴착전 변위], [계측전 변위], [계측변위]로 구분하여 이들 각각에 대한 특성을 살펴보았다. 마지막으로 시공중인 터널에 대하여 한계변형률 개념을 도입하여 현장 계측결과를 활용하는 방안에 대하여 구체적으로 언급하였으며 이를 현재 국내의 계측현황 조사를 토대로 그 활용방안에 대해 기술하였다.

The stresses acting on shotcrete lining of tunnel have been measured virtually by monitoring instruments installed during construction. However, the malfunction of instrument and the lack of consistency of signal have always been controversial, but re-installation of instrument after construction of tunnel lining is practically impossible. Therefore, authors have carried out the study to develop a new technique for estimating the stress acting on shotcrete lining during and after construction. In the technique, stresses of shotcrete lining can be estimate by the measurement of deformation of free face. Therefore, the relationships between the stresses of shotcrete lining and deformation of free surface are indispensable factor. In this paper, the parametric study using 2D FEM analysis was carried out to estimate the relationships between the stress level acting on the tunnel shotcrete lining and the deformation near the free face (e.g. artificial crack in this study). The distribution of stresses of shotcrete lining is also investigated in this study as the preliminary investigation for the large-scale tunnel lining test and detailed 3D FEM analysis.

D&B(Drill & Blast) 공법은 터널 시공시 현장지반조건에 대한 신속한 대응능력이 장점으로서, 정보화 시공에 의한 피드백해석(feedback analysis)이 필수적이며 이때 터널변위에 대한 신속하고 정확한 계측이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 터널내공변위 계측에 있어서의 기존계측 사례와 첨단 IT기법을 이용한 계측사례의 비교 분석을 통한 적용성을 분석하고자 하며 적용성 평가를 위해 00지하철 현장에서 내공침하 비교계측실험을 실시하였다. 또한, 계측비용, 계측빈도, 계측간격, 계측기간, 계측소요시간 등을 평가항목으로 선정하여 실제 현장터널의 내공 및 천단변위 계측시 소요되는 계측 용역의 내역자료를 통해 경제성을 분석하였다. 따라서 터널 시공시 기존방법에 비해 보다 안전하고 경제적인 시공에 기여함으로써 첨단 IT기법을 응용한 레이저스캐너의 현장 적용성이 높다고 판단된다.
