Flexible Overlap Technology for the Lining Trolley of Single-track Railway Tunnels
(1 Engineering Management Center of China Railway Corporation, Beijing 100070; 2 Technical Center of China Railway Guangzhou Engineering Group, Guangzhou 511459)
Abstract Falling-off of rock piece at tunnel arch and invert heave are the main potential safety problems affecting normal operation of the railway tunnel. The reasons causing falling-off of rock piece include squeezing by lining trolley at construction joint, concrete cutting by cantilever end of water stop at construction joint, construction cold joint at arch, concrete quality deficiency and so on. To eliminate the falling-off of rock piece at tunnel arch caused by rigid overlap, modification of lining trolley and the flexible overlap technique combining tray with rubber gasket were adopted during the construction of Nuwashan tunnel on China-Laos railway, and the potential quality problem due to rigid overlap at construction joint of tunnel lining were effectively solved.
