摘要

The ground behaviour associated with tunnelling in mixed-faced soil condition is gaining more attention from researchers in recent years. A sudden change in soil medium at the tunnel face creates difficulties in controlling face pressure and over excavation that can cause substantial ground loss and movements. To date, a majority of studies were carried out in single-face soil conditions. Therefore, this research aims to understand the ground behaviour due to tunnelling in mixed-face soil conditions by local case studies and numerical analyses. Main studies include (i) ground behaviour at a tunnelling project (ii) 3-D FE study on the soil responses in single-face soil tunnelling of Old Alluvium (OA) and Kallang Formation (KF), and (iii) 3-D and 2-D FE study on the soil responses in mixed-face tunnelling.;The tunnel alignment of a recent tunnel project in Singapore was expected to pass through single-face and mixed-face soil conditions. With the measured field data, numerical back-analyses were performed to study mixed-face tunnelling behaviour using 3-D finite element (FE) GeoFEA software. The findings were compared with the well-understood behaviours of those in single layer tunnelling and similarities and differences were highlighted.;The FE studies demonstrated that the settlement increased up to 3.5 times at the mixed-face location, hard soil (OA) to soft soil (KF) in this case, as compared to single layer tunnelling in OA. Highly localised ground loss up to 2% was estimated. The longitudinal settlement profiles were highly dependent on the soil condition at the tunnel face and no longer followed the shape of cumulative Gaussian curve. However, the transverse settlement remained the same Gaussian profile as in single-face tunnelling.;A series of sensitivity studies were also implemented to investigate the influence of some important factors such as the contribution of F1 layer in the Kallang Formation, different face pressure values, tunnel advancing directions, and mixed-face tunnelling under different geological condition. The findings from parametric studies showed that the volume loss decreases with increasing face pressure, up to 1.25Hy (Hy = Hydrostatic pressure), beyond which reduction in the volume loss becomes insignificant. In order to maintain the volume loss less than 2% at all times, face pressure of 1.3Hy to 1.5Hy is recommended to maintain throughout the mixed soil transition zone. Sometimes, the face pressure is expressed in terms of the overburden pressure, P0 and the face pressure of 0.7P0 to 0.8P0, is recommended. Similar trends of mixed soil settlement were observed in different geologies for the same tunnel advancing direction. The relative stiffness of two different soils at the transition also influences the resulting ground movements. Soft clay and rock interface showed larger total settlement than that of hard soil and rock interface.;Finally, an idealization of mixed-face tunnelling problem in 2-D numerical analysis was discussed. The study showed that fairly reasonable predictions can be obtained with 2-D FE modelling, if the percentage of soft soil/hard soil at the tunnel face are correctly incorporated and the applied face pressure is 1.0Hy or higher.
