COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF THE SHAFT STRUCTURE OF THE DNIPRO METRO

Abstract

Purpose. The construction of the Dnipro Metro, which today is characterized by high efficiency and widespread introduction of new technologies, has proved the need for predesign, design and construction work. The purpose of the scientific article is to identify during the complex analysis of the structure of the mine shaft its stress-strain state, which was obtained during the numerical analysis and geodetic monitoring. Methodology. During the complex analysis of the shaft № 16-bis of the Dnipro Metro, prognostic calculations of the stress-strain state were performed. To do this, a finite-element model is built, in which fully reflects the geometric features of the shaft, the load on it and boundary conditions. Part of the comprehensive analysis is geodetic monitoring, which is carried out during the construction of the shaft and during its operation. The works included the measurement of deformations both in the lining of the shafts and in the sections of the mine workings, as well as on the surface near the houses along the route in the area of influence of the working workings. Findings. During the numerical analysis of the structure of the shaft № 16-bis of the Dnipro Metro, displacement and force factors (normal forces and bending moments) were determined. Based on these results, the reinforcement of the elements of the shaft lining (bored pile, cap beam, reinforced concrete ring beam) was selected. The value of the deformed state obtained from the prognostic analysis indicates on the insignificant displacements of the designed structure. During the geodetic monitoring, horizontal and vertical deformations of the № 16-bis shaft lining were recorded, which were caused by the influence of public transport and heavy vehicles. But the values of these deformations reached 1 … 2 mm, which for their effect on buildings and structures is within normal limits. Originality. A comparison of the deformed state obtained during numerical analysis and geodetic monitoring, which proved the high accuracy of the prognostic calculation. Practical value. The results of a comprehensive analysis of the mine shaft of the Dnipro Metro made it possible to carry out a test the design solution and ensure high strength and stability of the lining made of bored piles.
