Abstract:

In the construction method of immersed tube tunnels, the treatment of joints is always a difficulty. The quality of the design of the joints is closely related to the effect of the operation and the expenses of maintenance and repair. In this article, taking LuntonShengwudao immersed tube tunnel as an example, the author introduces some problems encountered in the design of the final onshore joints of the tunnel and their solutions.Although offshore joints are finally adopted for the tunnel the idea of onshore joints can be used as reference for future similar works.

Key words: immersed tube tunnel final joint  , technical reference
