This paper focuses on the stability analysis of the Nanjung Water Diversion Twin Tunnels using convergence measurement. The Nanjung Tunnel is horseshoe-shaped in cross-section, 10.2 m x 9.2 m in dimension, and 230 m in length. The location of the tunnel is in Curug Jompong, Margaasih Subdistrict, Bandung. Convergence monitoring was done for 144 days between February 18 and July 11, 2019. The results of the convergence measurement were recorded and plotted into the curves of convergence vs. day and convergence vs. distance from tunnel face. From these plots, the continuity of the convergence and the convergence rate in the tunnel roof and wall were then analyzed. The convergence rates from each tunnel were also compared to empirical values to determine the level of tunnel stability. In general, the trend of convergence rate shows that the Nanjung Tunnel is stable without any indication of instability. Although there was a spike in the convergence rate at several STA in the measured span, that spike was not replicated by the convergence rate in the other measured spans and it was not continuous. The stability of the Nanjung Tunnel is also confirmed from the critical strain analysis, in which most of the STA measured have strain magnitudes located below the critical strain line and are less than 1%.

The Stability

Analyzing and Evaluating the stability of the surrounding rock is an indispensable and important part in the tunnel design. In this paper, the surrounding rock stability of Danba hydropower station diversion tunnel is dealt with, FLAC3Dsoftware is used for stability analysis. Selecting three different cross sections for calculation models, comparing with the displacement and principal stress and the plastic zone which calculated by FLAC3D, we can evaluate their stability and get the best diversion tunnel design.

Coulomb Criterion

In view of the complexity of the deeply-buried water diversion tunnel and adopting the advantage of slope strength reduction method, this research takes advantage of strength reduction method to study the stability of diversion tunnel. Based on the instance of Jinping II hydropower, this paper analyzes Yantang Formation III surrounding rocks buried 2500m deep below the ground, adopts the Mohr-Coulomb criterion, takes the cavern displacements or relative displacement as buckling critical criterion, and finally concludes that the safety factor is 1.5 in this instance, not far from 1.2 in the norm. It is thus reasonable to use strength reduction method to study the stability of the deeply-buried water diversion tunnel. The method can get safety factor easily and objectively and can provide scientific basis for evaluating the deeply-buried water diversion tunnel and the design for the supporting structure.
