Abstract:
The shield tunnel is composed of fabricated lining segments and connectors. Segment joint is the weak part of the mechanical performance of shield tunnel, and the form of joint has a great impact on the mechanical performance of the shield tunnel. At present, bolts are commonly used as connectors of shield tunnel in China, such as straight bolts and inclined bolts. There are few cases of fast connector research and application. This paper takes the longitudinal joint of shield tunnel with quick connector as the research object. Through the full-scale joint bending experiment, the bending stiffness and ultimate bearing capacity of the quick joint are studied, and the failure mode of the quick joint is found. The experimental results show that the quick joint has high bending stiffness and good mechanical performance.
