Compared with ordinary tunnels, the influence analysis of underwater tunnel adjacent constructions is more complicated. At present, the empirical method used to divide the influence zone of the tunnel adjacent constructions has great uncertainty. So it is of great significance for actual construction and design to determine the influence zone accurately according to theoretical calculations. In this paper, based on the Hoek–Brown nonlinear failure criterion of rock mass and taking seepage factor into account, the stress state of rock mass around the underwater tunnel adjacent constructions can be deduced by elastoplastic theory. en combined with the concept of “loose zone-bearing zone”, the influence zone division method of underwater tunnel adjacent constructions is proposed, and it is applied to the analysis of engineering examples. rough the deduced theoretical formulas, the influence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction can be divided into extensively strong, strong, relatively strong, weak, and noninfluence zones. Corresponding the influence zones with the risk levels in the code, different control measures are adopted for different risk levels, which can provide certain guidance for the design and construction of tunnel in practical engineering. 1. Introduction Presently, the development of urban subway traffic construc- tion is rapid. As the utilization ratio of land resources and building space in the city is gradually improved, tunnel con- struction inevitably will be close to existing structures, which makes tunnel adjacent construction become the key link in current tunnel design and construction, and underwater tunnel is no exception. However, due to its more difficult con- struction, more complicated conditions, and more stringent requirements, the underwater tunnel adjacent construction is different from ordinary tunnels. How to evaluate the impact of underwater tunnel construction on adjacent structures is of great guiding significance for tunnel line selection and site construction. e local and overseas scholars have performed out- standing achievement regarding the influence zone division of tunnel adjacent constructions. In 1998, Japan made a guideline for the construction of railway, highway, and electric power industries which lead to the beginning of the study on the influence zone of adjacent construction [1]. In recent years, the research on the theory of zoning has been further developed. In terms of experimental research, the team of Chou [2] systematically summarized the local cases of recent construction projects, studied the impact of adjacent construction, and proposed the zoning method of different types of adjacent construction. For example, when two tunnels are parallel (where L is the distance between the two tunnels), L <1D is the strong influence area, and 1DL <2.5D is the weak influence area. ereaſter, most of the studies are similar. Du [3] relied on the tunnel in Shanghai to carry out in situ tests of soil disturbance. Based on the soil disturbance data, the degree of influence was divided. Li et al. [4] deduced the disturbed plastic zone of soil under tunnel construction based on hole expansion theory. e plastic zone was regarded to strong influence zone, and the field test and the finite element method were used to verify this finding. Other scholars conducted further research on the basis of different engineering test data. In terms of numerical simulation, Huang et al.

Presently the development of urban subway traffic construc-tion is rapid As the utilization ratio of land resources andbuilding space in the city is gradually improved tunnel con-struction inevitably will be close to existing structures whichmakes tunnel adjacent construction become the key linkin current tunnel design and construction and underwatertunnel is no exception However due to itsmore difficult con-struction more complicated conditions and more stringentrequirements the underwater tunnel adjacent construction isdifferent from ordinary tunnels How to evaluate the impactof underwater tunnel construction on adjacent structures isof great guiding significance for tunnel line selection and siteconstruction

The local and overseas scholars have performed out-standing achievement regarding the influence zone divisionof tunnel adjacent constructions In 1998 Japan made aguideline for the construction of railway highway andelectric power industries which lead to the beginning of thestudy on the influence zone of adjacent construction [1]In recent years the research on the theory of zoning has

Summarizing previous studies it is found that the currentresearch on the influence zone of tunnel adjacent construc-tion is rarely about the underwater tunnel Using the Japanesetunnel construction guidelines as examples all of them arecomprehensively evaluated on the basis of distance engi-neering geology and construction design When applied tounderwater tunnels it is insufficient due to the lack of consid-eration of water weakening and permeation to surroundingrock In addition most scholars use the MohrndashCoulombfailure criterion for the theoretical analysis Based on thedevelopment of constitutive models of rock mass in recentyears the HoekndashBrown failure criterion is considered as amore universal model The HoekndashBrown nonlinear theoryis extensively used in various kinds of problems due to itsrelatively accurate solutions In this study based on theHoek-Brown yield criterion considering the influence of waterseepage the elastoplastic analysis of the underwater tunnelconstruction is carried out and the method of zoning of theunderwater tunnel adjacent construction is further proposedCorresponding the influence zones with the risk levels in thecode then the appropriate control measures are selected onthe basis of the risk level to guide the site construction

2 Elastoplastic Analysis of Surrounding Rockunder Seepage Conditions

21 HoekndashBrown Failure Criterion and Basic AssumptionsBased on the Griffith brittle fracture theory the HoekndashBrownfailure criterion believed that the cause of rock failure isthe deformation and expansion of the existing cracks whichhas no significant relationship with the complete rock bodyyield strength It is assumed that the rock mass cracks areirregular and the whole rock is isotropic After years ofresearch and development the HoekndashBrown failure criterionhas been amended several times Finally the relationshipbetween rock parameters 119898 119904 120572 and GSI is established andits mathematical expression is as follows

1205901 = 1205903 + 120590119888 (119898119887 1205903120590119888 + 119904)120572 (1)

In the formula1205901 and1205903 are themaximumandminimumprincipal stresses when rock mass is destroyed (the compres-sive stress is positive) 120590119888 is the uniaxial compressive strengthof complete rock mass and m s and 120572 are the dimensionlessparameter which have the following equivalent expressions

119898119887 = 119898119894 sdot exp [(119866119878119868 minus 100)(28 minus 14119863) ] (2)

119904 = exp [(119866119878119868 minus 100)(9 minus 3119863) ] (3)

In the formula D is the disturbance factor that reflects thetype of rock mass and GSI reflects the integrity of rock mass

Based on the revised HoekndashBrown failure criterion theelasticndashplastic stress state of underwater tunnel excavation isanalyzed and the calculation model is shown in Figure 1 Inthe model the tunnel section shape is circular the radius ofthe tunnel is 119886 the inner water head is ℎ119886 the surroundingrock plastic zone radius is119877119901 thewater head at the edge of theplastic zone is ℎ119901 the normal stress at the interface betweenthe elastic zone and the plastic zone is 119875119901 and the elastic zoneradius is 119877119890 the water head far enough is ℎ0 the originalrock stress of the surrounding rock is 1198750 and the liningsupport force is 119875119886 In order to simplify the calculationmodeland the solution process the following basic assumptionsare made during the solution of the circular tunnel (1)assuming that the surrounding rocks around the tunnel arehomogeneous rocks and ignoring the selfndashweight of thecalculation unit the lateral pressure coefficient is 10 (2)with the same permeability coefficient of rocks the seepagedirection is radial to form a stable seepage field (3) thetunnel lining support force is evenly distributed along theradial direction (4) the length of the tunnel is long enoughto handle the problem as axially symmetric plane strainsduring calculation (5) finally the elastoplastic analysis of thesurrounding rock follows the HoekndashBrown failure criterion

22 Seepage Field Status Calculation According to Darcyrsquoslaw and the continuity equation of seepage flow in the under-water tunnel the seepage continuous equilibrium differentialequation (5) can be obtained Equations (6) and (7) are theseepage flow boundary conditions which are expressed asfollows

12059721198671205971199032 + 1119903 120597119867120597119903 = 0 (5)

119867(119903)119903=119886 = ℎ119886 (6)

119867(119903)119903=119877119890 = ℎ0 (7)Combinedwith above equations thewater headH (r) can

be obtained

119867(119903) = 1ln (119877119890119886) (ℎ0 ln

119903119886 + ℎ119886 ln 119877119890119903 ) (8)

23 ElasticndashPlastic Zone Stress State Calculation When thestress state of the elasticndashplastic zone of the surrounding rockis calculated the seepage water pressure acts on the unit inthe form of volume force and the expression is as follows

119891119903 = minus120574119908 119889 (120585119867)119889119903 = 120574119908120585 (ℎ119886 minus ℎ0)119903 ln 119896 (9)

Considering the effect of seepage volume force accordingto elastoplastic calculation principle the balance differentialequation of elastic zone unit is expressed as follows

119889120590119903119889119903 + 120590119903 minus 120590120579119903 + 120574119908120585 (ℎ119886 minus ℎ0)119903 ln 119896 = 0 (10)

When the stress state of the plastic zone is calculated thesurrounding rock follows the HoekndashBrown failure criterionin the plastic zone According to the force analysis when120582 = 1 it can be known the tangential pressure 120590120579 isthe maximum principal stress 1205901 and the radial stress 120590r isthe minimum principal stress 1205903 the HoekndashBrown failurecriterion is expressed as follows

120590120579 = 120590119903 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119903120590119888 + 119904)120572 (17)

The equilibrium equation of the unit can be changed into(18) as follows

119889120590119903119889119903 minus 120590119888 (119898119887 (120590119903120590119888) + 119904)120572119903 + 120574119908120585 (ℎ0 minus ℎ119886)119903 ln 119896 = 0 (18)

After integrating (18) (19) and (20) can be obtainedAccording to (20) the amount of change of the radialstress along the radial direction in the plastic zone can bedetermined Furthermore according to (17) the amount ofchange of the tangential stress along the radial direction inthe plastic zone can be determined

24 Calculation of the Radius of Loose ZonendashBearing ZoneAccording to the definition of the ldquoloose areardquo it is assumed

that the tangential stress on the boundary of the loose area isthe original rock stress that is120590120579 = 120590119901 then it can be obtainedaccording to the Hoek-Brown failure criterion

120590120579 = 120590119897 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119897120590119888 + 119904)120572 = 1198750 (21)

Substituting (21) into (20) the radius of the loose zone canbe obtained as follows

119877119871 = 119886 sdot exp[int120590119897119875119886

1198891205901199031198750 minus 120590119903 minus 120574119908120585 (ℎ0 minus ℎ119886) ln 119896]= 119886 [1198750 minus 119875119886 minus 120574119908120585 (ℎ0 minus ℎ119886) ln 119896][1198750 minus 120590119897 minus 120574119908120585 (ℎ0 minus ℎ119886) ln 119896]

(22)

It can be seen from (22) that the mechanical parametersof rock mass groundwater pressure and seepage effect havea great influence on the radius of the loose zone Meanwhilethe larger the section size of the excavation tunnel the largerthe radius whereas the larger the tunnel support force 119875119886 thesmaller the radius

The radius of the bearing zone can be determined by thefollowing

becomes damaged or enters the plastic state Subsequentlythe stress of the plastic zone around the tunnel is partly trans-ferred to the deep rock mass due to the stress redistributionwhile the other part is relieved and eliminated due to thedeformation As the distance from the cave wall increasestheminimumradial principal stress increases and the bearingcapacity of the rock mass also increases which makes thestress state of the surrounding rock transition from plasticstate to elastic state in space

Compared with the initial state of stress the plastic zoneof surrounding rock can be divided into the bearing zoneand the loose zone after excavation The area in the deepplastic zone where the stress is higher than the initial stressand the area with the higher stress in the elastic area ofthe surrounding rock are combined as the ldquobearing zonerdquowhile the area whose stress is lower than the initial stressis the ldquoloose zonerdquo In the loose zone the stress and crackpropagation of the surrounding rock increase and the plasticslip is obvious When the surrounding rock reaches theplastic state all mechanical parameters are deteriorated Atthe same time the ldquoweakrdquo surrounding rock structure isfurther weakened by the action of groundwater throughpore hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure whichmakes it easier to damage

According to the above analysis of the stress state ofthe surrounding rock after the underwater tunnel excavationand the stress graph of the surrounding rock the influencezone of the adjacent construction is divided The loose andbearing zones are considered to be the strong influence zoneIn the elastic zone under the elastic stress state the rangeof tangential stress at the hole edge greater than or equal to101 times of the initial stress is defined as the elastic stressconcentration zone Therefore the stress concentration zonein the elastic zone can be regarded as the weak influence zoneand the outer zone is an initial stress zone The influencezones division is shown in Figure 2

Based on theHoek-Brown failure criterion the loose zonecan be divided into three regions the strong influence weakinfluence and no influence zones and the strong influencezone can be divided into extensively strong influence stronginfluence and fairly strong influence zones

4 Engineering Example

The research on the influence zone division of the adjacentconstruction has a strong guiding role in the design andconstruction of underwater tunnels For example whenthe adjacent construction is in a strong influence zonereinforcement and support are required When it is in a weakinfluence zone monitoring measures are needed When it isin a no influence zone nomeasures are needed Figure 3 is anexample of underwater shield tunnel engineering

tunnel to the main floor of the existing tunnel is 5442mTheriverbed strata are mainly highly weathered conglomerateand moderately weathered conglomerate exists locally Twotypical sections are selected for calculation and analysisAccording to geological data the water depth of the river insection A is 6m the depth of the shield tunnel is 10906mand the whole tunnel is in strong weathered conglomerateThe water depth of river in section B is 1m the depth ofthe shield tunnel is 2673m and the tunnel is also in strongweathered conglomerate

The relevant parameters at section A are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 20m the original rockstress of surrounding rock is P0 = 04MPa the equivalentporewater pressure coefficient is 120585= 10 the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 45MPa Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 03 thecohesion is c = 50 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593 =37∘

By substituting r = 119877119901 in Equation (19) the radial stressPp of the surrounding rock at the elasticndashplastic zone can beobtained Then the plastic zone radius Re can be obtainedCombined with the relevant parameters of surrounding rockand tunnel the radius of the plastic zone after the excavationof tunnel is 576m

The radii of the loose zone and the bearing zone arefurther solved according to (22) When substituting thesurrounding rock and tunnel parameters into the equationthe following can be obtained the loose and bearing zonesradii are 458m and 953m Therefore the range of exten-sively strong influence zone is 3ndash458m the range of stronginfluence zone is 458ndash576m and the range of fairly stronginfluence zone is 576ndash953m After solving the radius ofthe loose and bearing zones according to (15) and (16)then combining the calculation result of the plastic zone thefollowing can be obtained the radius of stress concentrationin the elastic zone is 1844m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1844m The influence zones of section Aare shown in Figure 4

The relevant parameters at section B are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 10m the original rock stressof surrounding rock is P0 = 05MPa and the equivalent porewater pressure coefficient is 120585 = 10 and the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 50MPa the Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 02the cohesion is c = 55 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593= 40∘

Based on the process of calculating the radius of theinfluence zones in section A the radius of the influence zonesin section B can be calculated as follows

It can be obtained from (19) that the radius of the tunnelexcavation plasticity influence zone is 617m then the radiusof the loose zone is 472m and the radius of the bearingzone is 828m Therefore the range of extensively stronginfluence zone is 3ndash472m the range of strong influence zoneis 472ndash617m and the range of fairly strong influence zone is617ndash828m Similarly the radius of the stress concentrationzone in the elastic zone is 1522m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1522mThe influence zones of section B areshown in Figure 5

5 Adjacent Construction Influence Zones andRisk Classification

On the basis of the adjacent construction influence zone divi-sion different influence zones of the adjacent constructionare associated with different risk levels in the risk assessmentso that the risk level can be determined according to differentinfluence zones during construction Then the correspond-ing measures can be taken Different countermeasures areadopted for the adjacent construction with different risklevels which has guiding significance for the actual project

Referring to (GB50652ndash2011 underground rail transiturban construction risk management practices) [29] (GB T 50839ndash2013 urban rail transit safety control technicalspecifications) [30] and (CJJ T 202ndash2013 urban railtransit structural safety protection technical specifications)[31] the influence zones obtained above and risk levels arecorresponded Different risk levels should be taken differentrisk disposal guidelines and control plans as shown inTable 1

6 Control Measures

For the adjacent construction three aspects can be controlledone is to reinforce the existing structure the other is tostrengthen the new structure and the third is to takemeasures against the soil between the existing and the newstructuresTherefore the followingmeasures can be taken forthe adjacent construction(1) Measures to be taken for the existing tunnels orprojects the types of countermeasures include basic mea-sures strengthening measures and repairing measures Thebasic measures include backfilling grouting and preventtunnel lining off the block Strengthening measures includethe use of arches anchorage and crossbar to strengthen

tunnel linings Repairing measures include stripping of float-ing blocks that may fall off cleaning the surface of thetunnel lining repairing drainage ditch and preventing waterleakage(2)Measures to be taken for the new tunnels or projectswhen construction has to be conducted in a strong-influencezone in order to reduce the impact on the existing tunnel amore perfect construction scheme or new countermeasuresshould be developed The concrete measures include adjust-ing the driving parameters and changing the supportingstructure of lining(3) Measures to be taken for the surrounding rockbetween the existing and the new construction or projectswhen the adjacent construction has a bad influence theprotection of the existing tunnel and the measures taken tothe side of the new construction are insufficient measuresshould be taken to deal with the intermediate strata inorder to reduce or eliminate the impact Generally methodssuch as grouting method and freezing method are adoptedto strengthen and improve the stratum and methods ofisolating influencemay also be adopted such as undergroundcontinuous walls pipe sheds steel pipe piles and archprotection

Under normal circumstances the abovemeasures are notcompletely independently used and comprehensive appli-cation can achieve better control effect In addition con-struction monitoring is an important part of undergroundengineering Due to the high risk complexity and unpre-dictability of adjacent construction monitoring is even moresignificantMonitoring datamust be fed back in time to guidefollow-up construction

Based on the influence degree of the adjacent construc-tion the risk level is judged and then the actual situation ofthe site is combined to take corresponding measures For thegrade I risk level the existing structure the new structureand the surrounding rock between the existing structure andthe new structure should be taken reinforcement measuresFor the grade II risk level the new structure and thesurrounding rock between the existing structure and thenew structure should take reinforcement measures and themonitoring of existing structures is needed For the gradeIII risk level the surrounding rock between the existingstructure and the new structure should take reinforcementmeasures and the monitoring of the existing and the newstructures are needed For the grade IV risk level themonitoring of the existing and the new structures are neededso as to grasp the impact of construction in real time

7 Conclusions

In this paper based on the HoekndashBrown failure criterion thetheoretical analysis is conducted on the underwater tunneladjacent construction In consideration of seepage flow theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction isdivided then influence zones are matched with risk levels inthe code The following conclusions can be obtained(1)The elasticndashplastic stress state of the surrounding rockof underwater tunnel is different from that of ordinary tunnelThe seepage action can cause a certain degree of deteriorationto the surrounding rock which cannot be ignored(2) According to the proposed zoning method for theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction in

Summarizing previous studies it is found that the currentresearch on the influence zone of tunnel adjacent construc-tion is rarely about the underwater tunnel Using the Japanesetunnel construction guidelines as examples all of them arecomprehensively evaluated on the basis of distance engi-neering geology and construction design When applied tounderwater tunnels it is insufficient due to the lack of consid-eration of water weakening and permeation to surroundingrock In addition most scholars use the MohrndashCoulombfailure criterion for the theoretical analysis Based on thedevelopment of constitutive models of rock mass in recentyears the HoekndashBrown failure criterion is considered as amore universal model The HoekndashBrown nonlinear theoryis extensively used in various kinds of problems due to itsrelatively accurate solutions In this study based on theHoek-Brown yield criterion considering the influence of waterseepage the elastoplastic analysis of the underwater tunnelconstruction is carried out and the method of zoning of theunderwater tunnel adjacent construction is further proposedCorresponding the influence zones with the risk levels in thecode then the appropriate control measures are selected onthe basis of the risk level to guide the site construction

2 Elastoplastic Analysis of Surrounding Rockunder Seepage Conditions

21 HoekndashBrown Failure Criterion and Basic AssumptionsBased on the Griffith brittle fracture theory the HoekndashBrownfailure criterion believed that the cause of rock failure isthe deformation and expansion of the existing cracks whichhas no significant relationship with the complete rock bodyyield strength It is assumed that the rock mass cracks areirregular and the whole rock is isotropic After years ofresearch and development the HoekndashBrown failure criterionhas been amended several times Finally the relationshipbetween rock parameters 119898 119904 120572 and GSI is established andits mathematical expression is as follows

1205901 = 1205903 + 120590119888 (119898119887 1205903120590119888 + 119904)120572 (1)

In the formula1205901 and1205903 are themaximumandminimumprincipal stresses when rock mass is destroyed (the compres-sive stress is positive) 120590119888 is the uniaxial compressive strengthof complete rock mass and m s and 120572 are the dimensionlessparameter which have the following equivalent expressions

119898119887 = 119898119894 sdot exp [(119866119878119868 minus 100)(28 minus 14119863) ] (2)

119904 = exp [(119866119878119868 minus 100)(9 minus 3119863) ] (3)

In the formula D is the disturbance factor that reflects thetype of rock mass and GSI reflects the integrity of rock mass

Based on the revised HoekndashBrown failure criterion theelasticndashplastic stress state of underwater tunnel excavation isanalyzed and the calculation model is shown in Figure 1 Inthe model the tunnel section shape is circular the radius ofthe tunnel is 119886 the inner water head is ℎ119886 the surroundingrock plastic zone radius is119877119901 thewater head at the edge of theplastic zone is ℎ119901 the normal stress at the interface betweenthe elastic zone and the plastic zone is 119875119901 and the elastic zoneradius is 119877119890 the water head far enough is ℎ0 the originalrock stress of the surrounding rock is 1198750 and the liningsupport force is 119875119886 In order to simplify the calculationmodeland the solution process the following basic assumptionsare made during the solution of the circular tunnel (1)assuming that the surrounding rocks around the tunnel arehomogeneous rocks and ignoring the selfndashweight of thecalculation unit the lateral pressure coefficient is 10 (2)with the same permeability coefficient of rocks the seepagedirection is radial to form a stable seepage field (3) thetunnel lining support force is evenly distributed along theradial direction (4) the length of the tunnel is long enoughto handle the problem as axially symmetric plane strainsduring calculation (5) finally the elastoplastic analysis of thesurrounding rock follows the HoekndashBrown failure criterion

22 Seepage Field Status Calculation According to Darcyrsquoslaw and the continuity equation of seepage flow in the under-water tunnel the seepage continuous equilibrium differentialequation (5) can be obtained Equations (6) and (7) are theseepage flow boundary conditions which are expressed asfollows

12059721198671205971199032 + 1119903 120597119867120597119903 = 0 (5)

119867(119903)119903=119886 = ℎ119886 (6)

119867(119903)119903=119877119890 = ℎ0 (7)Combinedwith above equations thewater headH (r) can

be obtained

119867(119903) = 1ln (119877119890119886) (ℎ0 ln

(16)

When the stress state of the plastic zone is calculated thesurrounding rock follows the HoekndashBrown failure criterionin the plastic zone According to the force analysis when120582 = 1 it can be known the tangential pressure 120590120579 isthe maximum principal stress 1205901 and the radial stress 120590r isthe minimum principal stress 1205903 the HoekndashBrown failurecriterion is expressed as follows

120590120579 = 120590119903 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119903120590119888 + 119904)120572 (17)

The equilibrium equation of the unit can be changed into(18) as follows

119889120590119903119889119903 minus 120590119888 (119898119887 (120590119903120590119888) + 119904)120572119903 + 120574119908120585 (ℎ0 minus ℎ119886)119903 ln 119896 = 0 (18)

After integrating (18) (19) and (20) can be obtainedAccording to (20) the amount of change of the radialstress along the radial direction in the plastic zone can bedetermined Furthermore according to (17) the amount ofchange of the tangential stress along the radial direction inthe plastic zone can be determined

24 Calculation of the Radius of Loose ZonendashBearing ZoneAccording to the definition of the ldquoloose areardquo it is assumed

that the tangential stress on the boundary of the loose area isthe original rock stress that is120590120579 = 120590119901 then it can be obtainedaccording to the Hoek-Brown failure criterion

120590120579 = 120590119897 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119897120590119888 + 119904)120572 = 1198750 (21)

Substituting (21) into (20) the radius of the loose zone canbe obtained as follows

119877119871 = 119886 sdot exp[int120590119897119875119886

(22)

It can be seen from (22) that the mechanical parametersof rock mass groundwater pressure and seepage effect havea great influence on the radius of the loose zone Meanwhilethe larger the section size of the excavation tunnel the largerthe radius whereas the larger the tunnel support force 119875119886 thesmaller the radius

The radius of the bearing zone can be determined by thefollowing

3 Underwater Tunnel Adjacent ConstructionInfluence Zones Division

After the excavation of the underwater tunnel the initialstress equilibrium state of the surrounding rock is damagedand the stress is redistributed The rock stress around thetunnel exceeds the yield stress of the rock mass and the rock

becomes damaged or enters the plastic state Subsequentlythe stress of the plastic zone around the tunnel is partly trans-ferred to the deep rock mass due to the stress redistributionwhile the other part is relieved and eliminated due to thedeformation As the distance from the cave wall increasestheminimumradial principal stress increases and the bearingcapacity of the rock mass also increases which makes thestress state of the surrounding rock transition from plasticstate to elastic state in space

Compared with the initial state of stress the plastic zoneof surrounding rock can be divided into the bearing zoneand the loose zone after excavation The area in the deepplastic zone where the stress is higher than the initial stressand the area with the higher stress in the elastic area ofthe surrounding rock are combined as the ldquobearing zonerdquowhile the area whose stress is lower than the initial stressis the ldquoloose zonerdquo In the loose zone the stress and crackpropagation of the surrounding rock increase and the plasticslip is obvious When the surrounding rock reaches theplastic state all mechanical parameters are deteriorated Atthe same time the ldquoweakrdquo surrounding rock structure isfurther weakened by the action of groundwater throughpore hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure whichmakes it easier to damage

According to the above analysis of the stress state ofthe surrounding rock after the underwater tunnel excavationand the stress graph of the surrounding rock the influencezone of the adjacent construction is divided The loose andbearing zones are considered to be the strong influence zoneIn the elastic zone under the elastic stress state the rangeof tangential stress at the hole edge greater than or equal to101 times of the initial stress is defined as the elastic stressconcentration zone Therefore the stress concentration zonein the elastic zone can be regarded as the weak influence zoneand the outer zone is an initial stress zone The influencezones division is shown in Figure 2

Based on theHoek-Brown failure criterion the loose zonecan be divided into three regions the strong influence weakinfluence and no influence zones and the strong influencezone can be divided into extensively strong influence stronginfluence and fairly strong influence zones

4 Engineering Example

The research on the influence zone division of the adjacentconstruction has a strong guiding role in the design andconstruction of underwater tunnels For example whenthe adjacent construction is in a strong influence zonereinforcement and support are required When it is in a weakinfluence zone monitoring measures are needed When it isin a no influence zone nomeasures are needed Figure 3 is anexample of underwater shield tunnel engineering

The relevant parameters at section A are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 20m the original rockstress of surrounding rock is P0 = 04MPa the equivalentporewater pressure coefficient is 120585= 10 the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 45MPa Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 03 thecohesion is c = 50 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593 =37∘

By substituting r = 119877119901 in Equation (19) the radial stressPp of the surrounding rock at the elasticndashplastic zone can beobtained Then the plastic zone radius Re can be obtainedCombined with the relevant parameters of surrounding rockand tunnel the radius of the plastic zone after the excavationof tunnel is 576m

The radii of the loose zone and the bearing zone arefurther solved according to (22) When substituting thesurrounding rock and tunnel parameters into the equationthe following can be obtained the loose and bearing zonesradii are 458m and 953m Therefore the range of exten-sively strong influence zone is 3ndash458m the range of stronginfluence zone is 458ndash576m and the range of fairly stronginfluence zone is 576ndash953m After solving the radius ofthe loose and bearing zones according to (15) and (16)then combining the calculation result of the plastic zone thefollowing can be obtained the radius of stress concentrationin the elastic zone is 1844m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1844m The influence zones of section Aare shown in Figure 4

The relevant parameters at section B are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 10m the original rock stressof surrounding rock is P0 = 05MPa and the equivalent porewater pressure coefficient is 120585 = 10 and the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 50MPa the Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 02the cohesion is c = 55 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593= 40∘

Based on the process of calculating the radius of theinfluence zones in section A the radius of the influence zonesin section B can be calculated as follows

It can be obtained from (19) that the radius of the tunnelexcavation plasticity influence zone is 617m then the radiusof the loose zone is 472m and the radius of the bearingzone is 828m Therefore the range of extensively stronginfluence zone is 3ndash472m the range of strong influence zoneis 472ndash617m and the range of fairly strong influence zone is617ndash828m Similarly the radius of the stress concentrationzone in the elastic zone is 1522m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1522mThe influence zones of section B areshown in Figure 5

5 Adjacent Construction Influence Zones andRisk Classification

On the basis of the adjacent construction influence zone divi-sion different influence zones of the adjacent constructionare associated with different risk levels in the risk assessmentso that the risk level can be determined according to differentinfluence zones during construction Then the correspond-ing measures can be taken Different countermeasures areadopted for the adjacent construction with different risklevels which has guiding significance for the actual project

Referring to (GB50652ndash2011 underground rail transiturban construction risk management practices) [29] (GB T 50839ndash2013 urban rail transit safety control technicalspecifications) [30] and (CJJ T 202ndash2013 urban railtransit structural safety protection technical specifications)[31] the influence zones obtained above and risk levels arecorresponded Different risk levels should be taken differentrisk disposal guidelines and control plans as shown inTable 1

6 Control Measures

For the adjacent construction three aspects can be controlledone is to reinforce the existing structure the other is tostrengthen the new structure and the third is to takemeasures against the soil between the existing and the newstructuresTherefore the followingmeasures can be taken forthe adjacent construction(1) Measures to be taken for the existing tunnels orprojects the types of countermeasures include basic mea-sures strengthening measures and repairing measures Thebasic measures include backfilling grouting and preventtunnel lining off the block Strengthening measures includethe use of arches anchorage and crossbar to strengthen

Under normal circumstances the abovemeasures are notcompletely independently used and comprehensive appli-cation can achieve better control effect In addition con-struction monitoring is an important part of undergroundengineering Due to the high risk complexity and unpre-dictability of adjacent construction monitoring is even moresignificantMonitoring datamust be fed back in time to guidefollow-up construction

Based on the influence degree of the adjacent construc-tion the risk level is judged and then the actual situation ofthe site is combined to take corresponding measures For thegrade I risk level the existing structure the new structureand the surrounding rock between the existing structure andthe new structure should be taken reinforcement measuresFor the grade II risk level the new structure and thesurrounding rock between the existing structure and thenew structure should take reinforcement measures and themonitoring of existing structures is needed For the gradeIII risk level the surrounding rock between the existingstructure and the new structure should take reinforcementmeasures and the monitoring of the existing and the newstructures are needed For the grade IV risk level themonitoring of the existing and the new structures are neededso as to grasp the impact of construction in real time

7 Conclusions

In this paper based on the HoekndashBrown failure criterion thetheoretical analysis is conducted on the underwater tunneladjacent construction In consideration of seepage flow theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction isdivided then influence zones are matched with risk levels inthe code The following conclusions can be obtained(1)The elasticndashplastic stress state of the surrounding rockof underwater tunnel is different from that of ordinary tunnelThe seepage action can cause a certain degree of deteriorationto the surrounding rock which cannot be ignored(2) According to the proposed zoning method for theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction in

When the stress state of the plastic zone is calculated thesurrounding rock follows the HoekndashBrown failure criterionin the plastic zone According to the force analysis when120582 = 1 it can be known the tangential pressure 120590120579 isthe maximum principal stress 1205901 and the radial stress 120590r isthe minimum principal stress 1205903 the HoekndashBrown failurecriterion is expressed as follows

120590120579 = 120590119903 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119903120590119888 + 119904)120572 (17)

After integrating (18) (19) and (20) can be obtainedAccording to (20) the amount of change of the radialstress along the radial direction in the plastic zone can bedetermined Furthermore according to (17) the amount ofchange of the tangential stress along the radial direction inthe plastic zone can be determined

24 Calculation of the Radius of Loose ZonendashBearing ZoneAccording to the definition of the ldquoloose areardquo it is assumed

that the tangential stress on the boundary of the loose area isthe original rock stress that is120590120579 = 120590119901 then it can be obtainedaccording to the Hoek-Brown failure criterion

120590120579 = 120590119897 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119897120590119888 + 119904)120572 = 1198750 (21)

Substituting (21) into (20) the radius of the loose zone canbe obtained as follows

(22)

It can be seen from (22) that the mechanical parametersof rock mass groundwater pressure and seepage effect havea great influence on the radius of the loose zone Meanwhilethe larger the section size of the excavation tunnel the largerthe radius whereas the larger the tunnel support force 119875119886 thesmaller the radius

3 Underwater Tunnel Adjacent ConstructionInfluence Zones Division

After the excavation of the underwater tunnel the initialstress equilibrium state of the surrounding rock is damagedand the stress is redistributed The rock stress around thetunnel exceeds the yield stress of the rock mass and the rock

becomes damaged or enters the plastic state Subsequentlythe stress of the plastic zone around the tunnel is partly trans-ferred to the deep rock mass due to the stress redistributionwhile the other part is relieved and eliminated due to thedeformation As the distance from the cave wall increasestheminimumradial principal stress increases and the bearingcapacity of the rock mass also increases which makes thestress state of the surrounding rock transition from plasticstate to elastic state in space

Compared with the initial state of stress the plastic zoneof surrounding rock can be divided into the bearing zoneand the loose zone after excavation The area in the deepplastic zone where the stress is higher than the initial stressand the area with the higher stress in the elastic area ofthe surrounding rock are combined as the ldquobearing zonerdquowhile the area whose stress is lower than the initial stressis the ldquoloose zonerdquo In the loose zone the stress and crackpropagation of the surrounding rock increase and the plasticslip is obvious When the surrounding rock reaches theplastic state all mechanical parameters are deteriorated Atthe same time the ldquoweakrdquo surrounding rock structure isfurther weakened by the action of groundwater throughpore hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure whichmakes it easier to damage

According to the above analysis of the stress state ofthe surrounding rock after the underwater tunnel excavationand the stress graph of the surrounding rock the influencezone of the adjacent construction is divided The loose andbearing zones are considered to be the strong influence zoneIn the elastic zone under the elastic stress state the rangeof tangential stress at the hole edge greater than or equal to101 times of the initial stress is defined as the elastic stressconcentration zone Therefore the stress concentration zonein the elastic zone can be regarded as the weak influence zoneand the outer zone is an initial stress zone The influencezones division is shown in Figure 2

Based on theHoek-Brown failure criterion the loose zonecan be divided into three regions the strong influence weakinfluence and no influence zones and the strong influencezone can be divided into extensively strong influence stronginfluence and fairly strong influence zones

4 Engineering Example

The research on the influence zone division of the adjacentconstruction has a strong guiding role in the design andconstruction of underwater tunnels For example whenthe adjacent construction is in a strong influence zonereinforcement and support are required When it is in a weakinfluence zone monitoring measures are needed When it isin a no influence zone nomeasures are needed Figure 3 is anexample of underwater shield tunnel engineering

The radii of the loose zone and the bearing zone arefurther solved according to (22) When substituting thesurrounding rock and tunnel parameters into the equationthe following can be obtained the loose and bearing zonesradii are 458m and 953m Therefore the range of exten-sively strong influence zone is 3ndash458m the range of stronginfluence zone is 458ndash576m and the range of fairly stronginfluence zone is 576ndash953m After solving the radius ofthe loose and bearing zones according to (15) and (16)then combining the calculation result of the plastic zone thefollowing can be obtained the radius of stress concentrationin the elastic zone is 1844m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1844m The influence zones of section Aare shown in Figure 4

The relevant parameters at section B are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 10m the original rock stressof surrounding rock is P0 = 05MPa and the equivalent porewater pressure coefficient is 120585 = 10 and the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 50MPa the Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 02the cohesion is c = 55 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593= 40∘

Based on the process of calculating the radius of theinfluence zones in section A the radius of the influence zonesin section B can be calculated as follows

It can be obtained from (19) that the radius of the tunnelexcavation plasticity influence zone is 617m then the radiusof the loose zone is 472m and the radius of the bearingzone is 828m Therefore the range of extensively stronginfluence zone is 3ndash472m the range of strong influence zoneis 472ndash617m and the range of fairly strong influence zone is617ndash828m Similarly the radius of the stress concentrationzone in the elastic zone is 1522m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1522mThe influence zones of section B areshown in Figure 5

5 Adjacent Construction Influence Zones andRisk Classification

On the basis of the adjacent construction influence zone divi-sion different influence zones of the adjacent constructionare associated with different risk levels in the risk assessmentso that the risk level can be determined according to differentinfluence zones during construction Then the correspond-ing measures can be taken Different countermeasures areadopted for the adjacent construction with different risklevels which has guiding significance for the actual project

Referring to (GB50652ndash2011 underground rail transiturban construction risk management practices) [29] (GB T 50839ndash2013 urban rail transit safety control technicalspecifications) [30] and (CJJ T 202ndash2013 urban railtransit structural safety protection technical specifications)[31] the influence zones obtained above and risk levels arecorresponded Different risk levels should be taken differentrisk disposal guidelines and control plans as shown inTable 1

6 Control Measures

For the adjacent construction three aspects can be controlledone is to reinforce the existing structure the other is tostrengthen the new structure and the third is to takemeasures against the soil between the existing and the newstructuresTherefore the followingmeasures can be taken forthe adjacent construction(1) Measures to be taken for the existing tunnels orprojects the types of countermeasures include basic mea-sures strengthening measures and repairing measures Thebasic measures include backfilling grouting and preventtunnel lining off the block Strengthening measures includethe use of arches anchorage and crossbar to strengthen

tunnel linings Repairing measures include stripping of float-ing blocks that may fall off cleaning the surface of thetunnel lining repairing drainage ditch and preventing waterleakage(2)Measures to be taken for the new tunnels or projectswhen construction has to be conducted in a strong-influencezone in order to reduce the impact on the existing tunnel amore perfect construction scheme or new countermeasuresshould be developed The concrete measures include adjust-ing the driving parameters and changing the supportingstructure of lining(3) Measures to be taken for the surrounding rockbetween the existing and the new construction or projectswhen the adjacent construction has a bad influence theprotection of the existing tunnel and the measures taken tothe side of the new construction are insufficient measuresshould be taken to deal with the intermediate strata inorder to reduce or eliminate the impact Generally methodssuch as grouting method and freezing method are adoptedto strengthen and improve the stratum and methods ofisolating influencemay also be adopted such as undergroundcontinuous walls pipe sheds steel pipe piles and archprotection

Under normal circumstances the abovemeasures are notcompletely independently used and comprehensive appli-cation can achieve better control effect In addition con-struction monitoring is an important part of undergroundengineering Due to the high risk complexity and unpre-dictability of adjacent construction monitoring is even moresignificantMonitoring datamust be fed back in time to guidefollow-up construction

Based on the influence degree of the adjacent construc-tion the risk level is judged and then the actual situation ofthe site is combined to take corresponding measures For thegrade I risk level the existing structure the new structureand the surrounding rock between the existing structure andthe new structure should be taken reinforcement measuresFor the grade II risk level the new structure and thesurrounding rock between the existing structure and thenew structure should take reinforcement measures and themonitoring of existing structures is needed For the gradeIII risk level the surrounding rock between the existingstructure and the new structure should take reinforcementmeasures and the monitoring of the existing and the newstructures are needed For the grade IV risk level themonitoring of the existing and the new structures are neededso as to grasp the impact of construction in real time

7 Conclusions

In this paper based on the HoekndashBrown failure criterion thetheoretical analysis is conducted on the underwater tunneladjacent construction In consideration of seepage flow theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction isdivided then influence zones are matched with risk levels inthe code The following conclusions can be obtained(1)The elasticndashplastic stress state of the surrounding rockof underwater tunnel is different from that of ordinary tunnelThe seepage action can cause a certain degree of deteriorationto the surrounding rock which cannot be ignored(2) According to the proposed zoning method for theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction in

When the stress state of the plastic zone is calculated thesurrounding rock follows the HoekndashBrown failure criterionin the plastic zone According to the force analysis when120582 = 1 it can be known the tangential pressure 120590120579 isthe maximum principal stress 1205901 and the radial stress 120590r isthe minimum principal stress 1205903 the HoekndashBrown failurecriterion is expressed as follows

120590120579 = 120590119903 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119903120590119888 + 119904)120572 (17)

After integrating (18) (19) and (20) can be obtainedAccording to (20) the amount of change of the radialstress along the radial direction in the plastic zone can bedetermined Furthermore according to (17) the amount ofchange of the tangential stress along the radial direction inthe plastic zone can be determined

24 Calculation of the Radius of Loose ZonendashBearing ZoneAccording to the definition of the ldquoloose areardquo it is assumed

that the tangential stress on the boundary of the loose area isthe original rock stress that is120590120579 = 120590119901 then it can be obtainedaccording to the Hoek-Brown failure criterion

120590120579 = 120590119897 + 120590119888 (119898119887 120590119897120590119888 + 119904)120572 = 1198750 (21)

Substituting (21) into (20) the radius of the loose zone canbe obtained as follows

119877119871 = 119886 sdot exp[int120590119897119875119886

(22)

It can be seen from (22) that the mechanical parametersof rock mass groundwater pressure and seepage effect havea great influence on the radius of the loose zone Meanwhilethe larger the section size of the excavation tunnel the largerthe radius whereas the larger the tunnel support force 119875119886 thesmaller the radius

The radius of the bearing zone can be determined by thefollowing

3 Underwater Tunnel Adjacent ConstructionInfluence Zones Division

After the excavation of the underwater tunnel the initialstress equilibrium state of the surrounding rock is damagedand the stress is redistributed The rock stress around thetunnel exceeds the yield stress of the rock mass and the rock

becomes damaged or enters the plastic state Subsequentlythe stress of the plastic zone around the tunnel is partly trans-ferred to the deep rock mass due to the stress redistributionwhile the other part is relieved and eliminated due to thedeformation As the distance from the cave wall increasestheminimumradial principal stress increases and the bearingcapacity of the rock mass also increases which makes thestress state of the surrounding rock transition from plasticstate to elastic state in space

Compared with the initial state of stress the plastic zoneof surrounding rock can be divided into the bearing zoneand the loose zone after excavation The area in the deepplastic zone where the stress is higher than the initial stressand the area with the higher stress in the elastic area ofthe surrounding rock are combined as the ldquobearing zonerdquowhile the area whose stress is lower than the initial stressis the ldquoloose zonerdquo In the loose zone the stress and crackpropagation of the surrounding rock increase and the plasticslip is obvious When the surrounding rock reaches theplastic state all mechanical parameters are deteriorated Atthe same time the ldquoweakrdquo surrounding rock structure isfurther weakened by the action of groundwater throughpore hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure whichmakes it easier to damage

According to the above analysis of the stress state ofthe surrounding rock after the underwater tunnel excavationand the stress graph of the surrounding rock the influencezone of the adjacent construction is divided The loose andbearing zones are considered to be the strong influence zoneIn the elastic zone under the elastic stress state the rangeof tangential stress at the hole edge greater than or equal to101 times of the initial stress is defined as the elastic stressconcentration zone Therefore the stress concentration zonein the elastic zone can be regarded as the weak influence zoneand the outer zone is an initial stress zone The influencezones division is shown in Figure 2

Based on theHoek-Brown failure criterion the loose zonecan be divided into three regions the strong influence weakinfluence and no influence zones and the strong influencezone can be divided into extensively strong influence stronginfluence and fairly strong influence zones

The radii of the loose zone and the bearing zone arefurther solved according to (22) When substituting thesurrounding rock and tunnel parameters into the equationthe following can be obtained the loose and bearing zonesradii are 458m and 953m Therefore the range of exten-sively strong influence zone is 3ndash458m the range of stronginfluence zone is 458ndash576m and the range of fairly stronginfluence zone is 576ndash953m After solving the radius ofthe loose and bearing zones according to (15) and (16)then combining the calculation result of the plastic zone thefollowing can be obtained the radius of stress concentrationin the elastic zone is 1844m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1844m The influence zones of section Aare shown in Figure 4

The relevant parameters at section B are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 10m the original rock stressof surrounding rock is P0 = 05MPa and the equivalent porewater pressure coefficient is 120585 = 10 and the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 50MPa the Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 02the cohesion is c = 55 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593= 40∘

Based on the process of calculating the radius of theinfluence zones in section A the radius of the influence zonesin section B can be calculated as follows

It can be obtained from (19) that the radius of the tunnelexcavation plasticity influence zone is 617m then the radiusof the loose zone is 472m and the radius of the bearingzone is 828m Therefore the range of extensively stronginfluence zone is 3ndash472m the range of strong influence zoneis 472ndash617m and the range of fairly strong influence zone is617ndash828m Similarly the radius of the stress concentrationzone in the elastic zone is 1522m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1522mThe influence zones of section B areshown in Figure 5

On the basis of the adjacent construction influence zone divi-sion different influence zones of the adjacent constructionare associated with different risk levels in the risk assessmentso that the risk level can be determined according to differentinfluence zones during construction Then the correspond-ing measures can be taken Different countermeasures areadopted for the adjacent construction with different risklevels which has guiding significance for the actual project

Referring to (GB50652ndash2011 underground rail transiturban construction risk management practices) [29] (GB T 50839ndash2013 urban rail transit safety control technicalspecifications) [30] and (CJJ T 202ndash2013 urban railtransit structural safety protection technical specifications)[31] the influence zones obtained above and risk levels arecorresponded Different risk levels should be taken differentrisk disposal guidelines and control plans as shown inTable 1

becomes damaged or enters the plastic state Subsequentlythe stress of the plastic zone around the tunnel is partly trans-ferred to the deep rock mass due to the stress redistributionwhile the other part is relieved and eliminated due to thedeformation As the distance from the cave wall increasestheminimumradial principal stress increases and the bearingcapacity of the rock mass also increases which makes thestress state of the surrounding rock transition from plasticstate to elastic state in space

Compared with the initial state of stress the plastic zoneof surrounding rock can be divided into the bearing zoneand the loose zone after excavation The area in the deepplastic zone where the stress is higher than the initial stressand the area with the higher stress in the elastic area ofthe surrounding rock are combined as the ldquobearing zonerdquowhile the area whose stress is lower than the initial stressis the ldquoloose zonerdquo In the loose zone the stress and crackpropagation of the surrounding rock increase and the plasticslip is obvious When the surrounding rock reaches theplastic state all mechanical parameters are deteriorated Atthe same time the ldquoweakrdquo surrounding rock structure isfurther weakened by the action of groundwater throughpore hydrostatic pressure and hydrodynamic pressure whichmakes it easier to damage

According to the above analysis of the stress state ofthe surrounding rock after the underwater tunnel excavationand the stress graph of the surrounding rock the influencezone of the adjacent construction is divided The loose andbearing zones are considered to be the strong influence zoneIn the elastic zone under the elastic stress state the rangeof tangential stress at the hole edge greater than or equal to101 times of the initial stress is defined as the elastic stressconcentration zone Therefore the stress concentration zonein the elastic zone can be regarded as the weak influence zoneand the outer zone is an initial stress zone The influencezones division is shown in Figure 2

Based on theHoek-Brown failure criterion the loose zonecan be divided into three regions the strong influence weakinfluence and no influence zones and the strong influencezone can be divided into extensively strong influence stronginfluence and fairly strong influence zones

The radii of the loose zone and the bearing zone arefurther solved according to (22) When substituting thesurrounding rock and tunnel parameters into the equationthe following can be obtained the loose and bearing zonesradii are 458m and 953m Therefore the range of exten-sively strong influence zone is 3ndash458m the range of stronginfluence zone is 458ndash576m and the range of fairly stronginfluence zone is 576ndash953m After solving the radius ofthe loose and bearing zones according to (15) and (16)then combining the calculation result of the plastic zone thefollowing can be obtained the radius of stress concentrationin the elastic zone is 1844m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1844m The influence zones of section Aare shown in Figure 4

The relevant parameters at section B are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 10m the original rock stressof surrounding rock is P0 = 05MPa and the equivalent porewater pressure coefficient is 120585 = 10 and the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 50MPa the Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 02the cohesion is c = 55 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593= 40∘

Based on the process of calculating the radius of theinfluence zones in section A the radius of the influence zonesin section B can be calculated as follows

It can be obtained from (19) that the radius of the tunnelexcavation plasticity influence zone is 617m then the radiusof the loose zone is 472m and the radius of the bearingzone is 828m Therefore the range of extensively stronginfluence zone is 3ndash472m the range of strong influence zoneis 472ndash617m and the range of fairly strong influence zone is617ndash828m Similarly the radius of the stress concentrationzone in the elastic zone is 1522m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1522mThe influence zones of section B areshown in Figure 5

Extremely strong impact zoneStrong impact zoneFairly Strong impact zoneWeak impact zoneNo impact zone

Figure 4 Influence zones of section A

The radii of the loose zone and the bearing zone arefurther solved according to (22) When substituting thesurrounding rock and tunnel parameters into the equationthe following can be obtained the loose and bearing zonesradii are 458m and 953m Therefore the range of exten-sively strong influence zone is 3ndash458m the range of stronginfluence zone is 458ndash576m and the range of fairly stronginfluence zone is 576ndash953m After solving the radius ofthe loose and bearing zones according to (15) and (16)then combining the calculation result of the plastic zone thefollowing can be obtained the radius of stress concentrationin the elastic zone is 1844m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1844m The influence zones of section Aare shown in Figure 4

The relevant parameters at section B are as follows thetunnel radius is a = 314m the inner water head is ha = 0mthe water head far enough is h0 = 10m the original rock stressof surrounding rock is P0 = 05MPa and the equivalent porewater pressure coefficient is 120585 = 10 and the surrounding rockelastic modulus is E = 50MPa the Poissonrsquos ratio is 120583 = 02the cohesion is c = 55 kPa and the internal friction angle is 120593= 40∘

Based on the process of calculating the radius of theinfluence zones in section A the radius of the influence zonesin section B can be calculated as follows

It can be obtained from (19) that the radius of the tunnelexcavation plasticity influence zone is 617m then the radiusof the loose zone is 472m and the radius of the bearingzone is 828m Therefore the range of extensively stronginfluence zone is 3ndash472m the range of strong influence zoneis 472ndash617m and the range of fairly strong influence zone is617ndash828m Similarly the radius of the stress concentrationzone in the elastic zone is 1522m so the radius of the weakinfluence zone is 1522mThe influence zones of section B areshown in Figure 5

5 Adjacent Construction Influence Zones andRisk Classification

On the basis of the adjacent construction influence zone divi-sion different influence zones of the adjacent constructionare associated with different risk levels in the risk assessmentso that the risk level can be determined according to differentinfluence zones during construction Then the correspond-ing measures can be taken Different countermeasures areadopted for the adjacent construction with different risklevels which has guiding significance for the actual project

Referring to (GB50652ndash2011 underground rail transiturban construction risk management practices) [29] (GB T 50839ndash2013 urban rail transit safety control technicalspecifications) [30] and (CJJ T 202ndash2013 urban railtransit structural safety protection technical specifications)[31] the influence zones obtained above and risk levels arecorresponded Different risk levels should be taken differentrisk disposal guidelines and control plans as shown inTable 1

6 Control Measures

For the adjacent construction three aspects can be controlledone is to reinforce the existing structure the other is tostrengthen the new structure and the third is to takemeasures against the soil between the existing and the newstructuresTherefore the followingmeasures can be taken forthe adjacent construction(1) Measures to be taken for the existing tunnels orprojects the types of countermeasures include basic mea-sures strengthening measures and repairing measures Thebasic measures include backfilling grouting and preventtunnel lining off the block Strengthening measures includethe use of arches anchorage and crossbar to strengthen

tunnel linings Repairing measures include stripping of float-ing blocks that may fall off cleaning the surface of thetunnel lining repairing drainage ditch and preventing waterleakage(2)Measures to be taken for the new tunnels or projectswhen construction has to be conducted in a strong-influencezone in order to reduce the impact on the existing tunnel amore perfect construction scheme or new countermeasuresshould be developed The concrete measures include adjust-ing the driving parameters and changing the supportingstructure of lining(3) Measures to be taken for the surrounding rockbetween the existing and the new construction or projectswhen the adjacent construction has a bad influence theprotection of the existing tunnel and the measures taken tothe side of the new construction are insufficient measuresshould be taken to deal with the intermediate strata inorder to reduce or eliminate the impact Generally methodssuch as grouting method and freezing method are adoptedto strengthen and improve the stratum and methods ofisolating influencemay also be adopted such as undergroundcontinuous walls pipe sheds steel pipe piles and archprotection

Under normal circumstances the abovemeasures are notcompletely independently used and comprehensive appli-cation can achieve better control effect In addition con-struction monitoring is an important part of undergroundengineering Due to the high risk complexity and unpre-dictability of adjacent construction monitoring is even moresignificantMonitoring datamust be fed back in time to guidefollow-up construction

Based on the influence degree of the adjacent construc-tion the risk level is judged and then the actual situation ofthe site is combined to take corresponding measures For thegrade I risk level the existing structure the new structureand the surrounding rock between the existing structure andthe new structure should be taken reinforcement measuresFor the grade II risk level the new structure and thesurrounding rock between the existing structure and thenew structure should take reinforcement measures and themonitoring of existing structures is needed For the gradeIII risk level the surrounding rock between the existingstructure and the new structure should take reinforcementmeasures and the monitoring of the existing and the newstructures are needed For the grade IV risk level themonitoring of the existing and the new structures are neededso as to grasp the impact of construction in real time

7 Conclusions

In this paper based on the HoekndashBrown failure criterion thetheoretical analysis is conducted on the underwater tunneladjacent construction In consideration of seepage flow theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction isdivided then influence zones are matched with risk levels inthe code The following conclusions can be obtained(1)The elasticndashplastic stress state of the surrounding rockof underwater tunnel is different from that of ordinary tunnelThe seepage action can cause a certain degree of deteriorationto the surrounding rock which cannot be ignored(2) According to the proposed zoning method for theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction in

Under normal circumstances the abovemeasures are notcompletely independently used and comprehensive appli-cation can achieve better control effect In addition con-struction monitoring is an important part of undergroundengineering Due to the high risk complexity and unpre-dictability of adjacent construction monitoring is even moresignificantMonitoring datamust be fed back in time to guidefollow-up construction

Based on the influence degree of the adjacent construc-tion the risk level is judged and then the actual situation ofthe site is combined to take corresponding measures For thegrade I risk level the existing structure the new structureand the surrounding rock between the existing structure andthe new structure should be taken reinforcement measuresFor the grade II risk level the new structure and thesurrounding rock between the existing structure and thenew structure should take reinforcement measures and themonitoring of existing structures is needed For the gradeIII risk level the surrounding rock between the existingstructure and the new structure should take reinforcementmeasures and the monitoring of the existing and the newstructures are needed For the grade IV risk level themonitoring of the existing and the new structures are neededso as to grasp the impact of construction in real time

7 Conclusions

In this paper based on the HoekndashBrown failure criterion thetheoretical analysis is conducted on the underwater tunneladjacent construction In consideration of seepage flow theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction isdivided then influence zones are matched with risk levels inthe code The following conclusions can be obtained(1)The elasticndashplastic stress state of the surrounding rockof underwater tunnel is different from that of ordinary tunnelThe seepage action can cause a certain degree of deteriorationto the surrounding rock which cannot be ignored(2) According to the proposed zoning method for theinfluence zone of underwater tunnel adjacent construction in
