The main challenge for metro station construction is to ensure the construction schedule while minimizing the impact on the surrounding environment. Based on the characteristics of the upper-soft and lower-hard stratum in the Dalian city of China, a special structure with six pilot tunnels and three spans of the pile-beam-arch (PBA) method is proposed and applied to the construction of the Labor Park metro station. In this study, laboratory experiments, numerical simulation analysis, and field monitoring data are used to investigate the applicability of six pilot tunnels and three spans of the PBA method in the process of construction. In the process of numerical simulation, the ground surface settlement, arch vertical displacement, the horizontal displacement of rock mass on both sides of the station, and vertical stress of support structure are analyzed. The numerical simulation results are found to be in good agreement with field measurement. Furthermore, the results indicate that, in the construction of six pilot tunnels and three spans of the PBA method, pilot tunnel construction and arch construction have a great influence on the surface settlement. The part of the initial vertical support of the pilot tunnels is removed, which caused the change of the position of maximum vertical stress and the redistribution of vertical stress. Because of reinforcement by side piles on both sides of the station, the horizontal displacement of the rock mass was reduced by 44.76% compared with that without reinforcement. The six pilot tunnels and three spans of the PBA method can effectively control the surface settlement, arch vertical displacement, and horizontal displacement of the rock mass.

Finite element software was employed to establish a model to simulate the compound soil nailing. The model simulates the process of constructing prestressed compound soil nailing. Compared the condition prestressed with no prestress, analyzed the Impact of prestress anchor on the deformation in the process of construction and the effect on axial force of soil nail. Applying prestress is able to control the horizontal displacement obviously, but has not obvious effect on vertical displacement, especially place the anchor bolt at the lower part of the slope. In the process of construction, prestress has an advance effect on the deformation of foundation pit and the axial force of soil nails near the anchor bolt.

Abstract When gob-side entry retaining is adopted in mining face with large cutting height, due to large stope space, strong dynamic pressure and other reasons, the filling body is usually broken and unstable due to improper width of filling body, and the stability of surrounding rock of roadway is poor. Therefore, this paper will take Shaqu mine as the engineering background to study the reasonable filling body width of gob-side entry retaining in mining face with large cutting height. Firstly, the stability factors of gob-side entry retaining in mining face with large cutting height are analyzed, and the mechanical model of bearing structure of gob-side entry retaining is established based on the lateral pressure and overlying load of filling body, and the reasonable width of filling body is obtained quantitatively; Numerical simulation is used to analyze the evolution of vertical stress, vertical displacement and plastic zone of working face with the change of filling body width. Finally, combined with the deformation observation results of 24207 gob-side entry retaining roof, two sides and filling body, the rationality of filling body width is verified. The results show that: the setting of the width and strength of the filling body plays an important role in the stability of gob-side entry retaining. According to the mechanical model, the minimum width of the filling body is 2.2m in the lateral direction and 3.9m in the vertical direction; Numerical simulation shows that when the width of filling body is too small, with the increase of filling body width, the vertical stress of filling body increases gradually. When the width of filling body reaches a certain value, the vertical stress decreases with the increase of width, and the stress concentration area will change from symmetrical type to eccentric load type, from the middle of filling body to the side of filling body near gob. If the width of the filling body is too small, the filling body will be too broken to bear the load, resulting in too small vertical stress and too large vertical displacement of the roadway roof. The larger the width of the filling body is, the greater the cutting resistance is, the more timely the side roof of the gob can be cut off, the less the stress of the roadway and the filling body, and the more stable the retained roadway is. Finally, through the observation of 24207 gob-side entry retaining, the total deformation of two sides and roof and floor of roadway tends to be stable after 665mm and 597mm respectively. The roof of roadway does not appear severe subsidence and obvious cracking, and the floor does not appear too large floor heave. The effect of roadway retaining is good, which indicates that 4m support can meet the needs of practical engineering.

Side-crossing residential buildings in tunnel construction may lead to building subsidence, structural damage by tension and affect the use of buildings. Aiming at the structural damage caused by the side-crossing structure of Re Shuitang Tunnel NO.1, by simulating the influence of tunnel construction on the building, it is concluded that the surrounding rock above the tunnel will be deformed when the tunnel crosses the building. The maximum horizontal displacement is 0.64 mm and the maximum vertical displacement is 4.43 mm. According to the analysis results, the surrounding rock above the tunnel should be strengthened in time, and attention should be paid to the impact of blasting on residential buildings, so as to ensure the safety of buildings and provide reference for future construction.

Taking the Zigaojian tunnel, Hangzhou–Huangshan high-speed railway, China, as background, the rock mass structure effect on smooth blasting quality was studied. Four rock mass structures were determined on the basis of the information collected on the tunnel site. Smooth blasting finite element models were established using LS-DYNA. The accuracy of the numerical calculation model was verified by comparing the overbreak and underbreak between the numerical simulation and monitoring. Orthogonal numerical test was used to study the rock mass structure effect through single factor and main effect analysis methods. With the decrease in rock mass integrity, the smooth blasting overbreak of tunnels with massive integrity structure, massive structure, layered structure, and cataclastic structure increased. For massive integrity structure and cataclastic structure, the peripheral hole spacing should be emphatically considered. Meanwhile, in massive structure and layered structure, the included angle and spacing of structural planes had a great influence on the smooth blasting quality. The research results could provide a reference to improve the quality of similar tunnel smooth blasting.

Abstract The paper presents an analysis of seismic activity for selected areas of hard coal mine executing exploitation in a rock mass with a variable degree of rock disturbance, i.e., also with a varied number of previous mined-out seams. A distribution of vertical stress and a value of vertical stress concentration coefficient were also determined in the strata of immediate roof of the seams planned for mining. In the analyzed case, despite the lack of thick and solid strata of sandstones in the roof, the rock mass emits seismic activity, where the energy largely depends upon an impact of exploitation edges and tectonic disturbance.

Protective layer mining, as a dominating method for preventing coal and gas outburst, is generally adopted in highly gassy coal mines. In the absence of a suitable thickness coal seam to serve as the protective layer, the rock-coal composite protective layer was proposed in this paper. We conducted a series of simulations and engineering measurements to investigate the protective effect under the mining of the rock-coal composite protective layer of the Zhongtai coal mine located in the Hebi area of Henan, China. The numerical simulation analysis showed that, after the completion of protective layer mining, the minimum vertical stress of the No. 2-1 coal seam had been reduced to 3.46 MPa. The maximum vertical displacement of the No. 2-1 coal seam is 455.01 mm. The maximum expansion deformation of the No. 2-1 coal seam is 9.77‰; the effective pressure relief range is as long as 160 m. The similarity simulation experiment revealed that, after the completion of protective layer mining, the minimum vertical stress of the No. 2-1 coal seam is 4.0 MPa. The maximum vertical displacement of the No. 2-1 coal seam is 640 mm. The maximum expansion deformation of the No. 2-1 coal seam is 26.37‰; the effective protection range reaches 130 m. The engineering measurements demonstrated that the variation law of gas drainage parameters in the protected layer corresponds to the protected layer's vertical stress distribution law in numerical simulation and similarity simulation. With the exploitation of the composite protective layer, the protective layer’s pressure begins to release. The average gas drainage concentration is 2-3 times of that before the composite protective layer mining.
