Shaking Table Test of Immersed Tunnel-Joints-Soil Under Earthquake Excitation


Abstract eng:
In order to obtain the seismic response of the immersed tunnel and its joints under seismic action, with Zhoutouzui Immersed Tunnel project in China as the background, a series of shaking table tests on immersed tunnel-joints-soil were done. The paper introduces the test comprehensively which includes the determination of similarity relation, the design of model soil container, the manufacturing of model structure, the layout of the sensor monitored points, the preparation of model soil, the loading plan of the input motions, the measuring method of the force and displacement between the joints, and so on. Some of the test results are given and analyzed. And also the dynamic response rules of the immersed tunnel and its joints are summarized.
