Pre-support with Pipe Umbrella System for Gaojiaping Tunnel
Time:2022-08-04View:
Project Background
Zhengzhou-Wanzhou high-speed railway has a construction length of 818 kilometers, an estimated total investment of CNY 118 billion, and a design speed of 350 km/h. After opening to traffic, the journey time from Zhengzhou to Chongqing will be shortened to less than 4 hours.
The project is the Gaojiaping tunnel in the ZWZQ-5 bid section in the Hubei section of the Zhengzhou-Wanzhou high-speed railway. The Gaojiaping tunnel is located in Limiao TowNanchangang County, Xiangyang City. The center mileage is DK451+786, and starting and ending mileage is DK449+037~DK454+535. The total length of the Gaojiaping tunnel is 5498m, and the maximum buried depth is about 320m. The tunnel adopts two-way tunneling at the entrance and exit.
Project Overview
Project Duration
|
August 2017 – December 2017 |
Service Scope | Anchoring materials and on-site technical services |
Application | Pre-support with pipe-roofing for railway tunnel |
Application Structure | Self-drilling anchor bars used as pipe-roofing |
Quantity Consumption | About 5000m |
Geological Conditions | Grade-V surrounding rocks in some locations are mainly moderately weathered shale, with soft rock, broken rock mass, and poor self-stability. The lining type is Vcw composite lining. As a ridge-crossing tunnel, the overlying soil on the slope is thin, the bedrock is partially exposed, and the surface is mostly cultivated as dry land. |
Questions and Challenges
According to geological conditions, full-face excavation was adopted, and the original design adopted steel flower pipes as pipe-roofing. However, during construction, it was found that it was extremely difficult to make a hole after drilling under a broken rock. The construction party has tried every possible means, but it’s still unable to insert into the hole, resulting in project suspension.
Solutions
The construction party adopted our suggestion to use R51 self-drilling anchor bars as pipe-roofing. The drill bit is ESF R51/76, and the drilling depth is 25m (each hole adopts a 4*5+3m arrangement mode).
The self-drilling anchor system consists of a hollow anchor bar, coupler, and drill bit. Grouting after drilling to achieve an anchoring effect and anchor bar can be used as a drill rod and reinforcement body.
Construction Process
Materials prepared → Survey lofting→ Drilling jumbo in place → Connect hollow anchor bar and drill bit → Percussive rotary drilling→ Couple next anchor bar → Repeated drilling and grouting → Drilling completion → Grouting →Enter into next circle → Installation completion
Construction Equipment
Drilling Rig: ZYS113 three-boom drilling jumbo
Construction Efficiency: High efficiency, net drilling time is about 1m/min

- The Tala hydroelectric project is located in Chukha Dzongkhag in western Bhutan. The dam site is in the Thimphu gneiss, and the section of HRT up to 14km downstream from C-1 is in gneiss with quartzite bands and biotite schists. There are joint sets, and the rock is highly faulted, with foliation shears of varying thickness up to 30cm. From 14km to 23km, the rock type is biotite gneiss with bands of quartzite, mica schist, and sericite-schist with amphibolite. Rock conditions merit 3 - 4 on the NGI Q system, with pretty poor conditions affecting parts of C2, C-3 and all of C-4. The rock format

- The traditional deep excavation retaining method can not meet the requirement of the stabilization of large-scale underground buildings. Especially in sandy cobble stratum where the ratio of finishing gas hole is very low, it must lead to high pressure for the grouting and anchoring later and increase the construction cost.

- Self drilling anchor bolt has two performances: drilling and grouting. It features a hollow bore for flushing, or simultaneous drilling and grouting. It can be installed in sites with weak rocks, loose soil, weathered layer, sand with stone layer where it is so difficult to create a hole in complex formation. The unconsolidated ground conditions favor the self drilling anchor bolt technique for fast and simple method of installed compared to the traditional method, which was confirmed by the application in Vertical Shaft at Left Bank of Xiluodu Hydropower Station.
