Abstract

  Mountain tunnels are generally thought to be less susceptible to seismic damage. However, tunnels often suffer seismic damages such as cracks and compression failure depending on the magnitude of the earthquake and the distance from the epicenter. The authors proposed fiber reinforced concrete and a buffer material of styrene foam as the seismic countermeasures for the lining of newly constructed mountain tunnel in poor geological conditions and assessed their applicability by model tests and numerical analyses including the invert as existing countermeasure. It was found that the inverts can reduce tunnel deformation and bottom-heaving, and fiber reinforced concrete can improve the ductility of lining, disperse the cracks of the lining and reduce the crack widths, and the buffer material placed between the lining and shotcrete can suppress the tunnel deformation and cracks.
