Summary: | Tunnel is a connector below ground level. The displacement conditions that occur
in the rock mass around the tunnel are often needed as a reference condition for
further tunneling activities. Conditions that occur in the field can be approached
and studied using laboratory scale testing, that are numerical modeling and
physical modeling. In a supported tunnel, physical modeling can be carried out by
modifying the biaxial test.
The biaxial test is generally carried out by applying biaxial pressure in the direction
of the x-axis and y-axis from outside the sample. The modification made in this
study is that the sample is pressurized not only from outside the sample but also
from inside the sample to interpret the conditions of the supported tunnel. The
displacement value obtained from the modification of the biaxial test can be used
to perform back analysis of the input data in numerical modeling. Further analysis
was carried out using the GRC-LDP-SRC curve approach and it was concluded
that the biaxial test modification can be used to model and study the conditions of
a supported tunnel. |
