Resumen

More complex geological conditions could be encountered with the construction of urban subway projects. At present, many subway tunnels have been built in composite strata with upper soft and lower hard layers, but the presence of a cavity in the strata increases the risk of collapse during construction. In this paper, a series of model experiments and discrete element methods were conducted to investigate the failure behavior of composite strata with a cavity caused by tunnel excavation disturbance. The influence of the distance between the cavity and vault (hd) and the distance between the soil?rock interface and vault (hr) on the collapse of the composite strata are analyzed. The research results indicate that tunnel collapse exhibits progressive failure because of the forming of a collapsed arch in the strata. If the hd is greater than the tunnel span (D), the arch can be stabilized without other disturbances. Additionally, the thickness of the tunnel rock layer affects the height of the collapsed arch significantly, as it is difficult to form a stable arch when the hr is less than 2/3 D. Finally, reasonable construction safety distances are proposed based on the possibility of forming a stable arch collapse in the tunnel and determining the range of the collapse.
