Sumario:Transverse drainage pipe, one of the main channels of groundwater behind the lining of subway tunnels, plays an important role in the safety and stability of the tunnel lining structure. For the problem of blocked transverse drainage pipe in a subway tunnel, a fault tree model of blocked transverse drainage pipe in Chongqing subway tunnel was constructed in this paper, the quantitative and qualitative analysis of fault tree was conducted, and countermeasures for maintenance of transverse drainage pipe were proposed. The study finds that, (1) the chemical type of groundwater was mainly CaHCO(3); most of the groundwater is strongly alkaline with pH greater than 8; the groundwater temperature is 20 ± 3 °C; (2) the basic events of blocked transverse drainage pipe have 3 minimum cut sets, and the basic events concrete slurry enters the drainage pipe; groundwater temperature, groundwater pH value, and concentration of anions and cations in groundwater were the main fault factors of blocked transverse drainage pipe; (3) preventive maintenance of transverse drainage pipe during tunnel construction includes construction quality control of drainage pipe and application of anti-crystallized blocking drainage pipe; preventive maintenance of transverse drainage pipe during tunnel operation includes monitoring of groundwater ion concentration, pH, and temperature; and maintenance treatment of transverse drainage pipe during tunnel operation includes physical treatment techniques, such as ultrasonic resonance, and chemical treatment techniques, such as acid-base neutralization reaction. The results of the study have certain guiding significance for the design, construction, and operation of transverse drainage pipe in subway tunnels.
