Fault is a fault zone in the earth's crust, and its movement may have a certain impact on the surface and underground buildings. Highway engineering and tunnel engineering are both important projects that need to consider the influence of faults. When highway engineering passes through fault zone, fault activity may lead to subgrade settlement, pavement rupture and other problems. In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to seriously investigate and evaluate the fault situation in the planning and design stage, so as to provide basis and guarantee for the subsequent construction. When the tunnel project passes through the fault zone, the fault activity will have an impact on the supporting structure, causing problems such as the change, destruction and collapse of anchor tension, and the ground movement will also bring some interference to the construction. Therefore, in the process of planning, design and construction of tunnel engineering, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research and evaluation of fault activities, formulate scientific support scheme and construction technology, and ensure the smooth progress of the project.
What impact does the fault have on other projects? In addition to highway engineering and tunnel engineering, faults will also have a certain impact on water conservancy engineering and construction engineering. The influence of fault zone should be fully considered in the construction of water conservancy projects such as dams and reservoirs, otherwise serious soil erosion or dam landslide may be caused. Construction projects also need to choose appropriate building structures according to different fault conditions to reduce the impact of faults.
Fault is an important factor of geological conditions, which will have a certain impact on highway engineering, tunnel engineering and other construction. Therefore, in the process of project planning, design and construction, we must take it seriously and formulate reasonable and scientific schemes and measures to ensure the quality and safety of the project.
Legal basis:
Article 16 of the Regulations on Quality Management of Construction Projects in People's Republic of China (PRC), in case of special geological conditions such as earthquake, geological disasters, soil erosion, environmental pollution, etc., corresponding technical measures should be taken according to the actual situation, and construction can only be started after examination and approval by relevant departments.
