The mined tunnel of Xiamen railway station of rail
transit line 3 is 34.5 m in width and 11.7 m in depth. The tunnel crosses
underneath Wucun commercial underground street, and the double lines laterally
cross the BRT piers. Accordingly, the existing pile foundations of the stress
and piers should be underpinned. As a result, countermeasures are put forward
as follows: (1) The longitudinal wallbeam underpinning scheme is
adopted to transfer the load of the underground street to the completed station
structure and wall beams. (2) The reinforcements are embedded in special joints
between the underpinning beams and the existing piles, and the tongues and
grooves are cut. (3) The tunnel is supported by anchor bolts, and the weak soil
layer on the sidewalls is grouted and reinforced. (4) The existing antifloating anchor bolts are removed and pipe roof is arranged within
the tunnel entrance and exit. The measures adopted have effectively reduced the
impact of tunnel construction on underground street and the safety of the
tunnel, and the existing structures have been ensured. Finally, the numerical
simulation results show that the longitudinal wallbeam
system is reasonable, feasible, and safe.
