Safety inspection system and comprehensive evaluation method for concrete structure of gas pipeline tunnel based on fuzzy mathematics
Regular safety inspections are an important guarantee to ensure the high-quality operation of concrete structures of tunnels. The Chinese West-east Gas Pipeline Project is large in scale and complex in construction environment. These tunnels are equipped with gas pipelines, and the concrete structural defects of the tunnels are continuously exacerbated during the long-term operation. There are few studies on the safety evaluation methods of concrete structures of gas tunnels. Based on the characteristics of the operation of the gas tunnels, this paper proposes the establishment of a structural safety comprehensive inspection system from the following seven aspects, that is, the void between the concrete lining and surrounding rock, the strength of the concrete lining, the thickness of the protective layer of the reinforced concrete lining, the carbonization depth of the concrete lining, the deformation of the tunnel section, the cracks in the concrete lining, and the auxiliary concrete structure of the tunnel. In addition, a corresponding quantitative determination method and safety level classification standard are established. Based on the fuzzy mathematics theory and a structural safety comprehensive inspection system, a five-level safety evaluation method for tunnel concrete structures is proposed. Finally, a comprehensive inspection and evaluation were carried out for a tunnel running across the mountain.
