Abstract：
A common method, semi-ring steel-plate reinforcement is mainly used for controlling large deformation of a tunnel lining, namely by providing post-reinforcement for the tunnel. Regarding the ultimate bearing test of a shield tunnel, this paper presents semi-ring steel-plate reinforcement technology, records the structure failure phenomenon that occurred during testing, gives the corresponding load-displacement curve, and analyzes key performance points. The results show that the given semi-ring steel-plate reinforcement can effectively improve the structural rigidity and ultimate bearing capacity of a tunnel, and that the failure of the bonding surface between the steel plate and the lining is the main cause of structural failure and a key factor in tunnel reinforcement.
