Elevation Effect

In view of the influence of blasting excavation in the deep burial underground powerhouse on the dynamic disturbance and blasting vibration of side wall and surrounding rock, the blasting vibration test method is often used for on-site monitoring and control. Taking the blasting excavation of the high side wall of an underground powerhouse of a hydropower station as the engineering background, a long-term blasting vibration test is carried out on the site. The measuring points are arranged along the elevation direction and horizontal direction of the high side wall of the powerhouse. Through analyzing and comparing the blasting vibration velocity values extracted from a large number of on-site measured data in the elevation direction, an interesting phenomenon is found. The measured vibration velocity of the rock anchor beam in the area far away from the blasting is greater than that in the area near the blasting, and the vibration velocity after the casting of the rock anchor beam is greater than that before the casting. In order to avoid the randomness and contingency of the measured data, based on the blasting parameters, loading quantity, and rock mechanical characteristics used in the field, the elevation effect of the numerical model of the underground powerhouse is established by using the dynamic finite element software. By comparing the numerical simulation and the on-site monitoring of the elevation direction vibration velocity at the same location, it is found that the two have the same law, which verifies the reliability of the numerical calculation model. By changing the elevation and horizontal distances to select the measuring points in the numerical model, the propagation curve of the blasting vibration of the high side wall of the underground powerhouse in the elevation direction is obtained and the wave propagation phenomenon and the local elevation amplification effect of blasting vibration velocity in the side wall of the powerhouse are found. By means of changing the morphology characteristics of the rock anchor beam, a numerical calculation model of the rock anchor beam before casting is established, and the blasting vibration velocity in the elevation direction of the same measuring point as the original model is extracted. The analysis and comparison results show that the “whiplash effects” caused by the reflection superposition of the convex morphology characteristics of the rock anchor beam on the blast wave and the vibration response of the rock mass at the step part is the main factor for the elevation effect. The fluctuation phenomenon of the vibration velocity in the elevation direction is caused by the natural frequency and the main vibration mode of the high side walls, and the reflection superposition of the convex geomorphology characteristics of the rock anchor beam will aggravate this fluctuation phenomenon. Therefore, in the construction of deep underground powerhouses, attention should be paid to the blasting construction and support design of the rock anchor beam.

Abstract. Through the analysis and research on the vibration effect caused by the urban New Austrian (shallow embedded) metro tunnel blasting construction, the main harming effect of the blasting vibration on the surface buildings is summarized. According to the actual condition on the site of blasting construction in No.2 line of Dalian metro tunnel, the reasonable vibration monitoring plan for blasting vibration wave is established. At the same time, by means of the regression analysis about the monitoring results of blasting vibration, the vibration wave’s regression formula are set up, which can expression the correlation among the vibration velocity, the charge weight, the distance between the blasting fountains and the buildings. The results show that the Sadaovsk formula can be use to describe the effect of the metro tunnel blasting construction on the surface buildings accurately and reasonably in this construction segment. This kind of regression analysis method can be use to direct subsequent blasting excavation.

The underground powerhouse of a hydropower station is a typical large-span and high side wall cavern group. The stability analysis of high side wall and the rock between caverns is key for cavern design. Based on the process of excavation and anchorage of underground caverns, FLAC3D numerical modeling technique is used to dynamically analyze the distribution rules and variation features of the second stress field, displacement field plastic zones in the rock masses surrounding the caverns before construction of anchorage support and the loads carried by the supporting structures. The computation result shows that the opening's lay out, construction sequence and support parameters are rational.

Based on model tests, the wave function expansion method was used to study scattering on the interaction of explosive stress waves and the underground chamber, and analyze the influence of the incident angle, frequency and diameter on blasting vibration velocity of underground chamber. It is obtained that when the cavern was under the plane waves of the vault, the radial vibration velocity of the vault is the largest among the four measured data, and it is the most intense vibrating place. When the incidence direction offsets from the vault to the horizontal direction on the left, the radial velocity facing burst are all larger than the radial velocity back of the burst. When the incident direction is on the dome, the tangential vibration velocity will increase first and then decrease from the vault to the side wall. When the incident direction is at the haunch, the tangential vibration velocity in the corner should be noticed. With increasing of the frequency, the radial vibration velocity and tangential vibration velocity increase accordingly. At the forward part of the burst, the larger the chamber diameter is, the bigger the radial and tangential velocities are. At the back side of the burst, the bigger the chamber diameter is, the smaller the radial and tangential vibration velocities are.

Although drilling and blasting method is widely used to excavate tunnel structures, it has great effect on adjacent ground structures. In order to find out the influence sphere and features of this construction method on overpass, three-dimensional numerical simulation method was used to analyze the displacement, stress and blasting vibration velocity of overpass. The results show that: (1) Drilling and blasting excavation method can cause differential settlement of stratum and overpass which is above the crown of tunnel. (2) The strong constraint structures of overpass are obviously affected by blasting vibration than other parts. (3) It should be taken extra protection measures at connection points between piers and decks as well as connection points between piers and stratum. (4) Horizontal vibration velocity caused by blasting excavation is lower than vertical vibration velocity. To control the vertical blasting vibration velocity is the essential to control the security of tunnel structure and upper structures. The above results certainly contribute to construct tunnel structures by using drilling and blasting excavation under complicated conditions.

It is important to guarantee the safety of adjacent underground structures during the foundation pit blasting excavation of modern city construction. The blasting excavation construction of a large, deep foundation pit near an existing metro station of Guangzhou Metro Line 3 is used as the example in this study. Based on blasting vibration field test results, the influence of blasting dynamic load on the lining of an adjacent metro tunnel is numerically analyzed in simulation using Fast Lagrangian Analysis of Continua 3D (FLAC3D), and the relationships between the blasting vibration velocity and stress and the displacement of the metro tunnel lining are obtained. The results show that the stress of lining structure is within the allowable range under the experimental blasting conditions, the lining displacement increases linearly with the applied dynamic vibration velocity, and the vertical displacement of the lining is more obviously affected than the horizontal displacement by the dynamic load. This study can be used as a basis for the control of blasting vibration in a complex urban environment. Its practical application shows that the proposed blasting plan and parameters are reasonable and effective.

Peak Value

Relying on the construction of a deep underground reservoir, vibration effects of ground were studied from two aspects: the peak value of vibration velocity and the basic frequency of blasting seismic waves, and were compared with the blasting vibration effect on the flat terrain surface. Research shows that blasting seismic wave’ impact on the surrounding building is relatively small because of its high frequency for the blasting excavation of underground reservoir. The frequency distribution in vertical and horizontal direction with scaled distance is roughly the same. And the peak value of vibration velocity in vertical direction is greater than that in horizontal direction, so blasting vibration effect in vertical direction is bigger than that in horizontal direction.

The Impact

Influence of blasting vibration on young concrete structure is an important issue in the field of hydropower engineering, transportation, and so forth. Based on influence of blasting excavation on concrete pouring progress of box girder in nearby Yesanhe Super Large Bridge, which is located in Hubei Province of China, a method combining field test and numerical simulation is used to study influence of blasting vibration on young concrete super large bridge. The results show that blasting excavation of nearby Yesanhe Hydropower Station induced vibration response on Yesanhe Bridge and peak particle velocity (PPV) on the bridge was quite small under test conditions. Monitoring data and numerical simulation both indicate that PPV of box girder is 1 to 4 times larger than that of pier foundation; with the extension of bridge cantilever casting section, velocity amplification factors of different parts of the box girder have different changes and duration of vibration in vertical direction increases. Three days after concrete pouring, the impact of concrete ageing on PPV and damage distribution of the bridge is not obvious. When vibration velocity of pier foundation is within 2 cm/s, the maximum tensile and compressive stress of box girder concrete are less than the tensile and compressive strength of concrete, so that blasting vibration unlikely gives impact on the safety of bridge.

The reconstruction and expansion project of oil reserve base often faces the excavation and blasting of the slope and undercrossing tunnel at the same time. Due to the flammable and explosive liquid storage nearby, the tight construction period, and the high requirements of collaborative construction, once the blasting accident occurs, the consequences are unimaginable. To facilitate safe and timely cooperative blasting construction of the slope and undercrossing tunnel, a vibration monitoring test of the slope and tunnel surrounding rock is conducted. The vibration response characteristics of the rock surrounding the slope and tunnel are analyzed, and a mathematical prediction model for the peak particle velocity (PPV) with consideration of the influence of the relative slope gradient (H/D) is established based on dimension analysis theory, which improves the prediction accuracy of PPV at the slope surface. ANSYS/LS-DYNA is used to establish a 3D finite element model for the slope and tunnel, and the dynamic response of the tunnel surrounding rock under blasting load is verified through field monitoring data. A linear statistical relationship between PPV and effective tensile stress (ETS) of the tunnel surrounding rock is established. The PPV safety criterion of the tunnel surrounding rock under blasting load is proposed to be 10 cm/s according to the first strength theory, and hence, the minimum safety distance from the tunnel working face to the slope surface is calculated to be 36 m. Finally, the excavation timing arrangement of the slope and tunnel is proposed, which has been successfully applied to the expansion project, and the construction period has been effectively shortened by 45 days while ensuring construction safety. The research results have great guiding significance to similar cooperative blasting excavation engineering for high slope and adjacent tunnel with safety and efficiency.

Aiming at surrounding rock damage induced by dynamic disturbance from blasting excavation of rock-anchored beam in rock mass at moderate or far distance in underground cavern, numerical model of different linear charging density and crustal stress in underground cavern is established by adopting dynamic finite element software based on borehole layout, charging, and rock parameter of the actual situation of a certain hydropower station. Through comparison in vibration velocity, contour surface of rock mass excavation, and the crushing extent of excavated rock mass between calculation result and field monitoring, optimum linear charging density of blast hole is determined. Studies are also conducted on rock mass vibration in moderate or far distance to blasting source, the damage of surrounding rock in near-field to blasting source, and crushing degree of excavated rock mass under various in situ stress conditions. Results indicate that, within certain range of in situ stress, the blasting vibration is independent of in situ stress, while when in situ stress is increasing above certain value, the blasting vibration velocity will be increasing and the damage of surrounding rock and the crushing degree of excavated rock mass will be decreasing.
