常用围岩分类方法对某深埋隧洞的适用性分析

某深埋隧洞局部地应力高达42 MPa,局部外水压力高达10 MPa,具有高地应力、高外水压力的特点。一般认为,最大主应力大于20 MPa属于高地应力,外水压力远大于1 MPa为高外水压力。采用Q系统、RMR分类、水电规范HC分类、国标BQ分类等4种常用围岩分类方法对该隧洞进行了围岩分类。分类结果表明,高地应力条件下,Q系统的适用性较好,RMR分类、HC分类、BQ分类适用性均差。4种分类方法在高外水压力条件下的适用性均差。出现上述现象的主要原因有:Q系统通过最大切向应力与岩石抗压强度的比值σθ/σc的大小,反映高地应力对围岩类别的影响。故其在高地应力条件下的适用性较好;RMR分类没有考虑高地应力对围岩类别的影响。其分类结果在高地应力区特别是岩爆段偏高;HC分类在高地应力区简单地采用降级的方法。其分类结果误差较大;BQ分类对岩石强度过于敏感。其分类结果在高地应力区过于保守。这4种方法均未考虑高外水压力对围岩类别的影响。论文提出了一种“归一化方法”,可以对不同分类方法分类结果进行相互比较。     

岩爆与围岩分类

岩爆是高地应力条件下完整脆性硬质围岩失稳的一种表现型式,岩爆烈度如何影响围岩类别尚不清楚,探索岩爆与围岩分类的关系,对准确判别高地应力条件下的围岩类别有着重要意义。本文以某深埋隧洞围岩分类为依据,对我国水利水电地下洞室围岩分类中岩爆烈度与围岩类别的关系、岩爆判别指标的选取等问题进行了探讨。     

大型地下洞室围岩分类相关性分析及应用

大型地下洞室岩体质量受诸多因素影响,围岩分类相对复杂,综合运用几种围岩分类方法有利于准确确定围岩的综合类别。在试验资料和长期现场地质工作的基础上,利用RMR、Q、HC、BQ及RMi分类方法,对大岗山水电站代表性洞室主厂房围岩进行分类,并通过对分类结果的回归分析,得出Q值与RMR值、HC值,RMi值与HC值、RMi值与RMR值呈指数关系,相关系数依次为0.91、0.82、0.87、0.94; Q值与RMi值呈乘幂关系,RMR值与HC值呈线性关系,相关系数分别为0.90、0.85;[BQ]值与HC值、RMR值呈线性关系,而与Q值、RMi值分别呈指数、对数关系,相关系数依次为0.49、0.38、0.38、0.40。研究结果表明,RMR、Q、HC及RMi分类方法相关性好,可互相补充、验证,有效应用于工程实践中; BQ分类与另4种分类相关性较差,在该水电站及类似工程中适用性相对较小。

深埋隧道工程高地应力影响下围岩稳定性分析

隧洞围岩稳定性分析目前主要采用的方法仍以经验判断为主,但高地应力区的深埋隧道,其围岩稳定性问题越来越突出,定量的分析评价显得非常重要。结合正在建设的引大济湟干渠工程中的深埋引水隧道,在分析隧道工程地质条件的基础上,分析隧道沿线地应力的分布规律,利用Fl AC3D软件采用强度折减分析法对隧道围岩进行稳定性定量分析,并对围岩发生岩爆的可能性进行判别。结果表明,隧道埋深较浅时,岩土体以垂直自重应力为主;随着埋深增加,隧道的围岩稳定性逐步降低;在引水隧洞围岩的第十九至第二十六段有中等岩爆至弱岩爆,部分地段可能有较强岩爆。研究结果可以为工程施工提供技术支撑,也可为类似工程的建设提供借鉴。     

考虑截面规则性的柱状节理岩体变形及强度特性研究

柱状节理岩体的复杂结构使其现场力学参数的确定存在困难,可靠地估计柱状节理岩体强度及变形特性对工程安全至关重要。结合Voronoi图形及3D打印技术制作不规则柱状节理岩体光敏树脂模具,并制备了具有不同倾角的规则及不规则柱状节理岩体试样。基于开展的单轴压缩试验结果,分析不同截面柱状节理岩体的变形及强度特性差异。根据试样最终破坏形态,揭示柱状节理岩体破坏模式及机制。结合已有研究结果,描述节理面材料对柱状节理岩体破坏形态及强度的影响。基于传统节理系数方法,提出了更能反映柱状节理岩体柱体结构特征的修正节理系数方法。采用修正节理系数法建立规则及不规则柱状节理岩体试验结果与现场变形及强度参数间的经验关系,将所提出计算公式应用于白鹤滩水电站工程,预测结果与现场实测值及RMR法（RMR为岩石质量评分指标）、Q法（Q为岩体质量指标）的预测值进行比较。结果表明,对于现场变形和强度参数,所提出的修正节理系数法的预测结果与现场实测结果较为吻合。     

岩体完整性系数确定及应用中的几个问题探讨

岩体完整性系数是一个与岩体质量和强度有关的地质参数,用于岩体完整程度划分、工程岩体质量分级等方面。然而不同的规范在岩体完整性系数的确定和应用等方面存在分歧。本文分析了岩体波速测试方法、岩体风化状态对岩体完整性系数的影响以及岩体体积节理数与岩体完整性系数的关系,并对岩体完整性系数应用中存在的问题进行了探讨。确定岩体完整性系数时,若岩块与岩体弹性波速的测试方法不同,应进行修正。所测试的岩块与岩体应处于相同的风化状态。采用岩体体积节理数确定岩体完整性系数时应考虑岩体中结构面的张开宽度和充填情况。应注意区分规范中围岩工程地质分类与岩爆判别中的围岩强度应力比的不同地质含义。     

基于组合赋权和未确知测度的深埋隧道岩爆危险性评价——以川藏交通廊道桑珠岭隧道为例

针对复杂山区深埋隧道岩爆危险性评价中的诸多不确定性因素问题,通过归纳分析典型高地应力条件下深埋隧道岩爆破坏特征及关键影响因子,从客观反映高地应力环境、岩石力学性能和围岩性质3个层面确定5项岩爆评价指标,利用未确知测度理论建立隧道岩爆危险性评价模型.为了充分考虑岩爆危险性评价的主观因素和客观因素,通过引入距离函数,采用熵权法和层次分析法相结合构建组合赋权法,综合确定各指标的权重系数.基于未确知测度理论及计算规则,结合岩爆危险性分级标准,构建直线型单指标测度函数,计算单指标测度评价矩阵和多指标测度向量,依照置信度准则进行岩爆危险性评价.将构建的岩爆危险性评价未确知测度模型应用于川藏交通廊道桑珠岭隧道,并与强度应力比法、Russenes判据、岩石脆性系数、岩体完整性系数、岩石弹性能指数等单指标判据评价结果及实际岩爆结果进行对比.研究结果表明:该模型评价结果的准确率达到94.4%,比单指标岩爆判据的准确率高16.7%~66.7%.

Rock Mass Characterization and Support Assessment along Power Tunnel of Hydropower in Kohistan Area,KPK, Pakistan

This paper encompasses the engineering geological properties of rock mass along the power tunnel of hydropower in Kohistan, Khayber Pakhtun Khawa (KPK), Pakistan. The major geological units of the study area are Chilas complex (CC) and Gilgit complex (GC) that consists mostly of igneous and metamorphic rocks. Discontinuity surveys were conducted to classify the rock mass by utilizing rock mass rating (RMR) and tunneling quality index (Q) classification systems. RMR system involves collection of data for parameters of rock strength, RQD, spacing of discontinuities, condition of discontinuities, groundwater condition and Q system involves rock quality designation (RQD), joint roughness (J_r), joint sets (J_s), joint alteration (J_a), stress reduction factor (SRF) and joint water reduction (J_w). RMR values ranges from 46 to 66 (fair to good) for rock unit of Chilas complex (CC) and 50 to 58 (fair) for rock unit of Gilgit complex (GC). The evaluated values of tunnel quality by Q-system are 1.55 to 6.4 (poor to fair) for Chilas complex (CC) and 1.35 to 1.84 (poor) for Gilgit complex (GC). The required support along the tunnel route is also estimated by both classification systems. Unwedge program is used to analyze the unstable zones due to the intersection of different joint sets. Total 14 cases are analyzed in Unwedge from which 3 cases have failure potential with FOS less than 1. These failure potential blocks can become stable by applying further support of rock bolting and shotcrete layer.

Influence of Rock Mass Parameters on the Performance of a TBM in a Gneissic Formation (Varzo Tunnel)

Summary The paper analyses the influence of rock mass quality on the performance of a double shield TBM in the excavation of a tunnel in a gneiss formation which is characterized by high strength and low fracture intensity.As full observation of the rock conditions was prevented by the use of segmental lining, a geomechanical survey of the face was performed during maintenance downtime and the observed conditions were correlated with the machine performance parameters for that same day. A statistical analysis of the data shows that penetration rate correlates well with a slightly modified RMR index (in which the influence of the water conditions and joint orientation were discounted), but the most important factor is by far the partial rating of the RMR classification related to joint spacing only. However in tunnels characterized by greater variability in rock strength and joint conditions, it could be worthwhile using the complete RMR index.Given the toughness of the rock, failure of the cutter bearings and supports were a frequent occurrence during excavation. Owing to this factor the influence of rock quality on the rate of advance was found to be weak and the correlation more scattered.The results obtained for the Varzo tunnel were compared with those relative to other tunnels in granitic rocks and found to be in good agreement. However the relationships obtained should be considered valid only for this type of rock; machine behaviour could be found to be markedly different in other rock types, even where rock material strength and joint frequency are the same.     

The application of rock mass classification systems to underground excavation in weak limestone, Atatürk dam, Turkey

The Atatürk dam was built across the Firat River on clayey limestone. A grout curtain, providing impermeability in the left and right abutments, was done in grouting galleries. The well known rock mass classification systems for tunneling purposes [rock structure rating (RSR), rock mass rating (RMR) and rock mass quality index (Q)] were used to classify the rock mass along these galleries. Based on RSR, RMR and Q values, the rock masses in the galleries have been classified into three different classes. Correlation between the three classification systems is discussed and suggestions are made for using rockbolt, shotcrete with wiremesh and steel ribs for supporting the rock mass.     

Geological and geotechnical investigations of Loharinag-Pala Hydroelectric Project,Garhwal Himalaya,Uttarakhand

The project area, forming a part of Bhagirathi valley, exposed rocks classed as central Himalayan crystallines and are medium to high grade metamorphics. The rock types exposed are feldspathic gneisses, quartz-biotite schists, garnet-biotite schist, biotite gneisses, migmatites and amphibolites. To design the rock support for the underground structures of desilting chambers, HRT, surge shaft, pressure shafts, power house, TRT and for the foundations of barrage and intake of desilting chambers, rock mass classifications was attempted following the methods of Bieniawski Rock Mass Rating (RMR) Classification and Tunnelling Quality Index (Q) of Barton et al. RMR technique involves collection of data on rock strength, RQD (%), spacing of discontinuities, condition of discontinuities and groundwater condition, while the ‘Q’ involves collection of data on RQD (%), joint set numbers (Jn), joint roughness number (Jr), joint alternation number (Ja), joint water reduction factor (Jw) and stress reduction factors (SRF). The permeability test in the overburden was done by the constant head method, while in the bed rock portion conducted by packer test. The result indicates that the rock masses of the area fall under the good, fair and poor rock quality. Augen gneiss of power house area is coming under the category of moderately strong rock as proved by deformability characteristics and strength parameter. On the basis of above study recommendations have been made for the proper and safe construction of the project components.     

基于广义Hoek-Brown准则的岩体等效强度

为了更方便地求出岩体的等价粘聚力C和摩擦角φ,基于Hoek-Brown准则与RMR法岩体质量分级,求出不同RMR值下的C和φ,拟合出C和φ的折减系数关于RMR值的变化曲线。结果表明:对于质量等级较好的岩体,根据RMR值可以分别求得岩体的C和φ的折减系数,对已知岩石的C和φ值进行折减,求得岩体的C和φ值。岩体的C值随岩石单轴抗压强度成线性正相关,岩体的φ值不随单轴抗压强度变化而变化。C和φ的折减系数不随岩石的单轴抗压强度变化而变化,只与岩体RMR值有关。      

Joint Frequency in the Rock Mass Rating 2014 Classification System Based on Field P-wave Propagation Velocity Tests: A New Rating Method

The joint frequency rating index accounts for 40% of the weight in the hundred-mark Rock Mass Rating 2014 (RMR14) classification system. However, owning to the natural variations of in-situ rock mass, this parameter is difficult for site engineers to obtain along the tunnel axis, especially in groundwater-rich conditions or prior to any disturbances made to rock mass. In this study, we propose an equivalent joint frequency, expressed quantitatively in terms of the ratio of the P-wave propagation velocity in the rock mass to that of the intact rocks, which is mainly based on engineering statistics easily obtained from the Chinese National Standard, GB/T 50218. We also explore a new rating method, based on field P-wave propagation velocity tests, for the joint frequency in the RMR14 classification system. Literature from in-situ databases is discussed to verify the applicability of the proposed rating method. The verifications demonstrate that, compared with the results of on-site parameters ratings as per the RMR classification system, the new rating method using P-wave propagation velocity can obtain a certain degree of accuracy. Hence, this enables the presentation of the primary state of integrity of an in-situ rock mass in accordance with the RMR14 classification system, through simple and non-destructive field P-wave velocity tests.
