Experimental study on effect of ductile-iron panel stiffness on mechanical properties of segmental joints of shield tunnels

In circular shield tunnels bearing high inner pressure or rectangular shaped shield tunnels, as the axial force at the segmental lining decreases, the bolt load at the segmental joint increases. It is essential to adopt high-stiffness segmental joints to improve the bearing capacity and control the...
