Research and development of tunnel engineering protection measures suitable for environmental conditions with crossing active faults and high ground stress are key points for determining success and failure of tunnel engineering.
Aiming at the protection aspect of tunnel engineering crossing active faults, the patent with the publication number of CN111287756A discloses only a single protection structure form which is not strong enough during the fault activity of a normal fault, a reverse fault and a strike-slip fault. In addition, the anti-dislocation effect is unknown. The tunnel structure disclosed in the patent with the publication number of CN110159315A uses high cost materials and also requires high construction standards. The anti-seismic structure disclosed in the patent with the publication number of CN108547633A also uses high cost materials. In addition, the anti-dislocation effects of the anti-seismic structures in these patents are highly uncertain when the damping ring is built in a pressure injection mode.

The embodiment provides a tunnel protection structure (100) suitable for active fault areas and high ground stress areas, as shown in
When surrounding rock (200) is seriously deformed, firstly, the radial buffer energy consumption layer and the axial buffer energy consumption layer (22) on the outer layer perform energy consumption on radial large deformation and axial large deformation respectively, in the deformation process of the surrounding rock (200), the radial high-strain energy and the axial high-strain energy are rapidly reduced, then the radial buffer energy consumption layer and the axial buffer energy consumption layer (22) on the inner layer buffer the radial large deformation and the axial large deformation respectively, and the situation that radial deformation of surrounding rock (200) is transmitted to the tunnel to damage the tunnel is avoided.
Further, each radial buffer energy consumption layer comprises a plurality of radial tire layers (34) which are sequentially and fixedly connected around the axis of the tunnel, each radial tire layer (34) comprises a plurality of radial tires (31) which are annularly distributed around the axial direction (1) of the tunnel and are sequentially and fixedly connected, and the axis of each radial tire (31) is parallel to the axis of the tunnel; each axial buffer energy consumption layer (22) comprises a plurality of axial tire layers (23) sequentially sleeved along the radial direction of the tunnel, each axial tire layer (23) comprises a plurality of axial tires (21) annularly distributed around the axis of the tunnel and sequentially and fixedly connected, and the axis of each axial tire (21) is perpendicular to the axis of the tunnel; and the radial tires (31) and the axial tires (21) are filled with buffer energy consumption materials, the buffer performance of the buffer energy consumption material filled in the radial tire (31) is gradually increased and the energy consumption performance of the buffer energy consumption material filled in the radial tire (31) is gradually decreased from outside to inside along the radial direction of the tunnel, and the buffer performance of the buffer energy consumption material filled in the axial tire (21) is gradually increased and the energy consumption performance of the buffer energy consumption material filled in the axial tire (21) is gradually decreased from outside to inside along the axial direction (1) of the tunnel. Both the axial tire (21) and the radial tire (31) have a buffer function, and the axial tire (21) and the radial tire (31) are combined with the buffer energy consumption material to jointly resist large deformation of the surrounding rock.
Further, the number of the radial buffer energy consumption layers and the number of the axial buffer energy consumption layers (22) are each three, the radial tire (31) and the axial tire (21) on the outermost layer are filled with energy consumption materials composed of construction waste such as concrete blocks, gravel blocks, brick and tile fragments and muck and coal gangue, the fineness modulus is “large”, the compactness is “slightly dense”, and the grading form is an “intermittent” grading form; the radial tire (31) and the axial tire (21) on the middle layer are filled with energy consumption materials composed of coal gangue, steel slag and the like, the fineness modulus is “medium”, the compactness is “medium”, and the grading form is a “continuous opening” grading form; and the radial tire (31) and the axial tire (21) on the inner layer are filled with energy consumption materials composed of steel slag, coal ash, red mud, phosphogypsum and the like, the fineness modulus is “small”, the compactness is “compact”, and the grading form is a “continuous” grading form. Bulk solid wastes are directly converted into building materials, so that the comprehensive utilization efficiency of the bulk solid wastes is improved while the buffer energy consumption effect is met, and the cost of tunnel engineering is reduced.
Further, the diameter and the thickness of each radial tire (31) are gradually increased from inside to outside along the radial direction of the tunnel, the thicknesses of the radial buffer energy consumption layers along the axial direction (1) of the tunnel are the same, and each radial tire (31) can abut against at least two adjacent radial tires (31) in the adjacent buffer energy consumption layers. Due to the arrangement, the arrangement of the radial tires (31) is more compact, and the buffer energy consumption performance of the axial protection ring (2) is improved.
Further, the gaps between the adjacent radial tires (31), the gaps between the adjacent axial tires (21) and the gaps between the radial tires (31) and the axial tires (21) which are adjacent to each other are filled with the buffer energy consumption materials, specifically, the gaps are filled with the energy consumption materials composed of coal gangue, steel slag, coal ash, red mud, ardealite and the like, the fineness modulus is “medium-small”, the compactness is “dense”, the grading form is a “continuous” grading form, and a buffer function is achieved.
Further, the radial tires (31) and the axial tires (21) are waste tires. The waste tires are directly converted into building materials, comprehensive utilization of the bulk solid wastes is achieved while the buffering effect is achieved, and the cost of tunnel engineering is reduced.
Further, the adjacent radial tire layers (34) are bonded and fixed.
Further, the centers of the radial tires (31) in the same radial tire layer (34) are sequentially connected through first anchor rods (32), a plurality of radial tires (31) distributed along the axial direction (1) of the tunnel in the same radial buffer energy consumption layer form a radial tire part (35), the thickness of the radial tire part is the same as that of the radial tire (31) of the outermost radial buffer energy consumption layer, and the centers of the adjacent radial tire parts (35) in every two adjacent radial buffer energy consumption layers are connected through second anchor rods (33).

Further, the contact positions of the adjacent radial tires (31) and the adjacent axial tires (21) are fixedly connected through fifth anchor rods.
Further, the first anchor rods (32), the second anchor rods (33), the third anchor rods, the fourth anchor rods (24) and the fifth anchor rods are all anchor rods with ideal elastic-plastic characteristics and axial deformation-radial coarsening characteristics, so that no matter for the movement conditions of different faults such as a normal fault, a reverse fault and a strike-slip fault, or the movement forms of fault stick-slip dislocation and creep-slip deformation, the anchor rod still keeps constant high strength even under large tensile and shear deformation conditions, a large deformation space is reserved for surrounding rock, and the anchor rod is in closer contact with tires and solid wastes due to the characteristic of radial coarsening after deformation of the anchor rods, so that the overall rigidity and strength of a tunnel engineering protection structure are enhanced.
According to the embodiment, the anchor rod groups acting on a radial protection structure and an axial protection structure are tightly connected with the tire groups in a special arrangement mode, the using amount of special anchor rod materials is saved to the maximum extent, and on the other hand, the material cost of the tunnel engineering protection structure is remarkably reduced.
According to the embodiment, under the complex stress conditions of static loads such as extremely high self-weight stress and structural stress and dynamic loads such as strong seismic stress waves and blasting stress waves, the coordinated deformation effect of the waste tire group and the anchor rod group and the movement rearrangement and particle crushing effect of solid waste blocks/particles are considered; and therefore, the combined functions of tire buffering, anchor rod energy absorption and block/particle energy consumption are fully exerted.
