A method of incorporating a compressible cementitious composition into a subterranean structure having a tunnel including: (a) incorporating a compressible cementitious composition into annular gaps formed around the tunnel of the subterranean structure, and (b) allowing the compressible cementitious composition to cure to a hardened cementitious material within the annular gaps. Further, the compressible cementitious composition includes: (i) water; (ii) a cementitious material; and (iii) a rubber material, in which the rubber material comprises at least 15 weight % of the composition based on the total weight of the composition. A subterranean system and compressible cementitious composition is also included.

A construction method for a shallow-buried multi-arch tunnel under water-rich geological conditions includes the following steps: cleaning a grouting ground surface; marking a grouting reinforcement scope; performing survey setting-out; drawing a cross-section diagram to scale; calculating out coordinates and angles of anchor points that need to be set; marking drilling positions; nailing small wooden piles at the drilling positions for identifying; determining a setting depth of the anchor rods according to ground elevation; drilling holes, cleaning bottom of hole, grouting, performing construction preparation, performing long pipe shed construction at the entrance after an earth-rock of a tunnel entrance and an open cut tunnel is excavated to flush with a springing line of the tunnel. A down-the-hole drill is used for drilling in construction. Long pipe shed grouting is designed based on solidifying a soil mass in limited scope around a consolidation pipe shed.

A method of treating tunnel collapse includes leveling a collapse body and moving a pavilion support under the collapse cavity, lifting a shield plate until a lower edge of the shield plate surpasses a contour line of an initial supporting arch of a tunnel, connecting a bottom column and inserting a padding plate under a column. If the hydraulic prop retracts, the column, the bottom column, the padding plate and the hydraulic prop bear a load from the shield plate. Mounting and connecting the initial supporting arch, welding the intersection point of the column and the initial supporting arch, cutting off the column in the initial supporting arch. Transferring the load of the shield plate from the pavilion support to an initial supporting shed, spraying fast-setting concrete to a grid arch to form a closed shell, and pumping filling material to fill the space of the collapse cavity.

A tunnel reinforcement system having a plurality of structural supports positioned at spaced intervals along the length of a tunnel. Each structural support has a plurality of structural segments connected in an end to end relationship. Each structural segment has a plurality of bars connected to a first end and a second end, in which the first end comprises a first butt plate having one or more apertures, and the second end comprises a second butt plate having one or more apertures. The one or more apertures of the first butt plate or the second butt plate of a structural segment are coaxially aligned with the one or more apertures of the first butt plate or the second butt plate of another structural segment in an end to end relationship. The first butt plate or the second butt plate of a structural segment is attachable to the first butt plate or the second butt plate of another structural segment in an end to end relationship. Each structural support defines a geometric supporting framework.

Disclosed are methods, compositions, and composition packages for spray-coating a membrane for waterproofing a concrete tunnel applications. After primer coating is applied onto a surface in the tunnel, the coating composition is sprayed to form a membrane, and then concrete is cast or sprayed against the membrane so that it can bond to the membrane. Coating compositions comprise two or more acrylate monomers, as well as initiator, accelerator, and optional additive. Preferably, the coating composition is established by using a two-part package, one part having initiator, the other part having accelerator, and each part containing the monomers and optional additives so that the two parts can be shipped to the application site and mixed in a 1:1 ratio during spraying. The waterproofing coating composition provides excellent bonding with concrete.
