Abstract
Grouting is a reinforcing method commonly used in underground engineering. The grouting-reinforced body is in saturated groundwater, which is due to long-term seepage, resulting in reinforcing performance attenuation. This is a guarantee for the safe operation of the underground structure’s long life cycle that obtains the performance attenuation law of the grouting-reinforced body under the action of seepage. This paper uses primitive to describe the mechanical properties of grouting-reinforced body under seepage erosion, establishing the damage mechanics model of grouting-reinforced body under seepage, designing deterioration experimental of grouting-reinforced body under seepage, studying the mechanism of the permeation water pressure on the permeability of the grouting-reinforced body, and obtaining the variable of the grouting-reinforced body damage variable with the permeation water pressure. Studies have shown that seepage effects have a “sudden jump” phenomenon in the process of grouting-reinforced body erosion, and the limit damage of grouting-reinforced body is 0.15~0.19. The relationship between the permeability and damage variables of grouting-reinforced body under seepage are verified, and the quantitative relationship of grouting-reinforced body between permeation pressure, time and damage variables are obtained. This research is of great importance for improving the deterioration theory under seepage and ensuring the long-term safety of tunnel operations.
