Abstract. Through the analysis and research on the vibration effect caused by the urban New Austrian (shallow embedded) metro tunnel blasting construction, the main harming effect of the blasting vibration on the surface buildings is summarized. According to the actual condition on the site of blasting construction in No.2 line of Dalian metro tunnel, the reasonable vibration monitoring plan for blasting vibration wave is established. At the same time, by means of the regression analysis about the monitoring results of blasting vibration, the vibration wave’s regression formula are set up, which can expression the correlation among the vibration velocity, the charge weight, the distance between the blasting fountains and the buildings. The results show that the Sadaovsk formula can be use to describe the effect of the metro tunnel blasting construction on the surface buildings accurately and reasonably in this construction segment. This kind of regression analysis method can be use to direct subsequent blasting excavation.

Although drilling and blasting method is widely used to excavate tunnel structures, it has great effect on adjacent ground structures. In order to find out the influence sphere and features of this construction method on overpass, three-dimensional numerical simulation method was used to analyze the displacement, stress and blasting vibration velocity of overpass. The results show that: (1) Drilling and blasting excavation method can cause differential settlement of stratum and overpass which is above the crown of tunnel. (2) The strong constraint structures of overpass are obviously affected by blasting vibration than other parts. (3) It should be taken extra protection measures at connection points between piers and decks as well as connection points between piers and stratum. (4) Horizontal vibration velocity caused by blasting excavation is lower than vertical vibration velocity. To control the vertical blasting vibration velocity is the essential to control the security of tunnel structure and upper structures. The above results certainly contribute to construct tunnel structures by using drilling and blasting excavation under complicated conditions.

It is important to guarantee the safety of adjacent underground structures during the foundation pit blasting excavation of modern city construction. The blasting excavation construction of a large, deep foundation pit near an existing metro station of Guangzhou Metro Line 3 is used as the example in this study. Based on blasting vibration field test results, the influence of blasting dynamic load on the lining of an adjacent metro tunnel is numerically analyzed in simulation using Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua 3D (FLAC3D), and the relationships between the blasting vibration velocity and stress and the displacement of the metro tunnel lining are obtained. The results show that the stress of lining structure is within the allowable range under the experimental blasting conditions, the lining displacement increases linearly with the applied dynamic vibration velocity, and the vertical displacement of the lining is more obviously affected than the horizontal displacement by the dynamic load. This study can be used as a basis for the control of blasting vibration in a complex urban environment. Its practical application shows that the proposed blasting plan and parameters are reasonable and effective.

The reconstruction and expansion project of oil reserve base often faces the excavation and blasting of the slope and undercrossing tunnel at the same time. Due to the flammable and explosive liquid storage nearby, the tight construction period, and the high requirements of collaborative construction, once the blasting accident occurs, the consequences are unimaginable. To facilitate safe and timely cooperative blasting construction of the slope and undercrossing tunnel, a vibration monitoring test of the slope and tunnel surrounding rock is conducted. The vibration response characteristics of the rock surrounding the slope and tunnel are analyzed, and a mathematical prediction model for the peak particle velocity (PPV) with consideration of the influence of the relative slope gradient (H/D) is established based on dimension analysis theory, which improves the prediction accuracy of PPV at the slope surface. ANSYS/LS-DYNA is used to establish a 3D finite element model for the slope and tunnel, and the dynamic response of the tunnel surrounding rock under blasting load is verified through field monitoring data. A linear statistical relationship between PPV and effective tensile stress (ETS) of the tunnel surrounding rock is established. The PPV safety criterion of the tunnel surrounding rock under blasting load is proposed to be 10 cm/s according to the first strength theory, and hence, the minimum safety distance from the tunnel working face to the slope surface is calculated to be 36 m. Finally, the excavation timing arrangement of the slope and tunnel is proposed, which has been successfully applied to the expansion project, and the construction period has been effectively shortened by 45 days while ensuring construction safety. The research results have great guiding significance to similar cooperative blasting excavation engineering for high slope and adjacent tunnel with safety and efficiency.

Mining method inevitably causes a certain degree of damage on the shaft and surrounding rock, and severe vibration can effect on the ground buildings. The Sectional blasting design was discussed on the base of stratigraphic features, field condition and the nearest distance from surrounding buildings to Cuchun Shaft of Dalian Subway 202 construction which is taken as blasting safety control distance in this paper. The control blasting technology with short footage, weak blasting was put forward to reducing blasting vibration. The ground vibration monitoring was carried through during shaft blasting. Particle vibration velocity was from 0.28 to 1.85 cm/s and main vibration frequency was from 16.97 to 42.24 Hz at different level blasting of the surrounding rock. The monitoring results show the blasting parameters and damping measures can meet requirements of Engineering and standardization of the industry. It can provide the scientific basis and technical support for subway construction damping optimization design.

In order to study the dynamic response of adjacent buildings in the process of tunnel blasting excavation, taking Yangjia tunnel blasting through a five-story frame structure residential building as an example, the propagation law of blasting seismic wave was analyzed by using HHT method through on-site blasting monitoring. Then, the ALE algorithm in ANSYS/LS-DYNA software was used to establish a three-dimensional numerical model based on the surrounding rock-cutting section-structure coupling to study the dynamic response of adjacent buildings under the blasting vibration of tunnel. The results show that the HHT analysis method can clearly describe the energy distribution of vibration signals in the time and frequency domain. The energy carried by the blasting vibration signal is corresponding to the detonating section, and the maximum energy appears in the cutting section, which further verifying that the vibration effect caused by the cutting hole blasting is the strongest. In the process of tunnel blasting, the dynamic responses of beams, columns and exterior walls of adjacent buildings are not consistent and show different variation rules along the height direction. In addition, the stress centralization mainly occurs in the exterior wall of the building, the joint of the exterior wall and the column, the joint of the exterior wall and the beam, and the joint of the exterior wall and the floor and other non-weight bearing area, indicating that these parts are more likely to damage and crack in the process of tunnel blasting.

The vibration effect generated during tunnel excavation can influence or damage adjacent tunnels. Studying and controlling the blasting vibration effect has important theoretical and practical significance, especially for new tunnels. This paper takes the tunnel project of Gao Jiu Lu-Jia Hua Cross Tunnel in Chongqing as the research background and assesses the blasting vibration influence in the up-down cross-tunnel. Onsite monitoring and numerical simulation were used to analyze peak particle velocity (PPV) changes, stress distribution, and crown settlement during the excavation process of Gao Jiu Lu I Tunnel at Jia Hua Tunnel Left Line in the cross-section. Influence laws of blasting excavation in a small, clear distance cross-tunnel on an existing tunnel below were obtained. Results show that new tunnel blasting vibrations exerted the largest influence on the crown of the existing tunnel below in the cross-section. The maximum tensile stress of the secondary lining of the existing tunnel below was mainly concentrated in the crown area. The maximum compressive stress during excavation was concentrated in the crown foot, and the stress value was less than the tensile and compressive strength of the concrete. The loosening of the surrounding rock from blasting excavation of the new tunnel caused secondary settlement of the existing tunnel crown below. The cumulative settlement value at the cross-section of the two tunnels was the largest. With an increase in axial distance from the cross-section of the existing tunnel crown, the settlement value gradually declined and became stable. These research results have reference value for the construction of a small, clear distance cross-tunnel and provide theoretical guidance for similar tunnel excavation projects in the future.

The effects of tunnel blast excavation on the lining structures of adjacent tunnels are comprehensively studied for the Xinling highway tunnel project. First, the LS-DYNA software is applied to obtain the characteristics of vibration velocities and dynamic stresses at different positions of the tunnel liner. The results indicate that the maximum peak particle velocity (PPV) is located on the haunch of the lining facing the blasting source and that the PPV and peak tensile stress decrease with the increase in the surrounding rock grade. Second, a site test on blasting vibration is conducted to verify the simulation results. By using regression analysis of the measured vibration data, the calculation method of maximum charge per delay for optimizing blasting excavation under different surrounding rock grades is obtained. Finally, based on the statistical relationship between crack alteration and PPV on the lining before and after blasting, the safety thresholds of PPV for different portions of the tunnel are determined. The recommended safety threshold of PPV is 10 cm/s for intact lining and for B-grade and V-grade linings of the surrounding rock tunnel. However, if the lining crack grade falls between 1A and B, then the recommended safety thresholds of PPV for the III-grade and IV-grade surrounding rock tunnel are 5 cm/s and 6 cm/s, respectively. The threshold PPV proposed in this study has been successfully applied to restrict blast-induced damage during new tunnel excavation of the Xinling tunnel project.
