Public Transport System

Pune has witnessed enormous industrial growth, rapid urbanization in the recent past and has put the city's travel infrastructure to stress. Being a densely populated area, Pune's traffic needs cannot be met by road-based transportation systems and additional flyovers. Considering this, the Pune Metro project a strong public transport system partly elevated, and partly underground Line 1 and the completely elevated Line 2 has been discussed and undertaken by Maha Metro Rail Corporation. With the rise in demand, the responsibility for a safe and efficient public transport system also increases hence proper planning, designing, and execution play a vital role. The underground tunnel stretch of the Pune Metro Line 1 project is carried out by TBM and by segmental lining as a support system. By geotechnical parameters and FEM, RS2 software author analyses the ground behaviour and support system and conveys a basic understanding of ground behaviour and results in guidelines for designing the underground tunnel.

Tunnelling or undertaking below-ground construction in squeezing ground can always present many engineering surprises, in which this complicated geology bring a series of tunnelling difficulties. Obviously, if the major affecting factors and mechanism of the structure damage in these complicated geological conditions are determined accurately, fewer problems will be faced during the tunnel excavation. For this study, reference is made to four tunnel cases located in the Qingling-Daba mountainous squeezing area that are dominated by a strong tectonic uplift and diversified geological structures. This paper establishes a strong support system suitable for a squeezing tunnel for the purpose of addressing problems exhibited in the extreme deformation of rock mass, structure crack, or even failure during excavation phase. This support system contains a number of temporary support measures used for ensuring the stability of tunnel face during tunnelling. The final support system was constructed, including some key techniques such as the employment of the foot reinforcement bolt (FRB), an overall strong support measure, and more reserved deformation. Results in this case study showed significant effectiveness of the support systems along with a safe and efficient construction process. The tunnel support system proposed in this paper can be helpful to support design and provide sufficient support and arrangement before tunnel construction in squeezing ground.

AbstractDue to the increasing population and resulting transportation needs, the number of subway and high-speed railway projects has also increased. The geometric constraints of such projects have caused many tunnels to be built in weak ground. Thus, weak ground tunnelling has attracted the attention of tunnel engineers and researchers. The main purposes of this study are to analyse the T4 tunnel excavated in weak ground and to compare the results obtained from the analytical solutions and 3D numerical analyses. This study specifically considers the T4 tunnel support system used in the Ankara İzmir High Speed Railway Project (Afyonkarahisar-Banaz Section). The T4 tunnel route encounters weak ground composed of layers of extremely weak mudstone, clayey sand, weakly cemented sandstone, and silty–clay matrix with pebbles. The tunnel overburden ranges from 10 to 35 m, which is shallow. After the excavation work of the T4 tunnel, severe deformation and critical stability problems in the shallow part (where the overburden is approximately 10 m) were encountered inside the tunnel, leading to a halt in construction. This was followed by revisions to the tunnel support system, leading to successful completion of the tunnel excavation. Numerical simulations of the low overburden section are performed using the commercially available FLAC3D program that uses the finite difference method. The characteristics of insufficient/ineffective support systems and adequate support systems for shallow tunnels excavated through weak ground are discussed in this study. Additionally, problems that pertain to the tunnel itself and its support system are discussed. The results of the 3D numerical analyses and analytical solutions are compared, and the advantages of 3D numerical analyses are discussed. The importance and necessity of tunnel face stability and roof stability for tunnel stability in weak ground is illustrated. Consequently, solutions based on analytical and numerical analyses are presented, and the analysis methodology and solutions proposed in the study can help guide weak ground tunnelling design and evaluation.

Fastener-style steel pipe formwork scaffolding system is a body made up of different components, such as plates, rods, blocks of space structure system,Force process of its being repeatedly affected by construction technology,and providing a comprehensive analysis of mechanical characteristics of each component in the system is relatively difficult.But only in the design and analysis of vertical rods as object design and analysis is not enough, vertical Rod itself is not a simple one-way rod of, it is in the system and the horizontal rod, floor stiffness, the upper cord and the ribs and other components affected.Therefore, from the overall awareness of fastener-style steel pipe formwork support system, a comprehensive analysis of connection characteristics, and interactions between the various components,thus summed up the practical computing model for each component in order to essentially recognize the bracket system, eliminate the source of accidents fundamentally.

An engineering geological mapping was carried out at the construction site of the Tunnel 10 of Jakarta Bandung High-Speed Railway to obtain data and information of the engineering geological conditions, particularly the rock masses. This research aims to determine the rock mass classes at the tunnel construction site and recommend the tunnel support system based on the Rock Mass Rating (RMR) and the Japan Society of Civil Engineers (JSCE) systems. This research is expected to better understand the rock mass classes, which were previously determined based on the newly applied Basic Quality (BQ) system for the tunnel support empirical design. The results showed that the research area consisted of young volcanic products, namely moderate to highly weathered tuff breccia and andesitic breccia. The uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) of rock mass varies between 1-25 MPa. The RMR value ranges from 21 to 40, indicating disintegrated and poor rock mass quality. The proposed tunnel support system is the combination of shotcrete, steel support for top heading and bench support, arch sidewall, and invert concrete.
