Structural Behavior Measurements of Tunnel Liners, Spring Creek Power Conduit
During construction of Spring Creek power conduit, strain and pressure meters were installed on the liners near the portals of the 2 pressure tunnels which are a part of the conduit. Purpose of the installation was to obtain structural behavior measurements to provide information on the amount of the total static head resisted by steel liners. Three strain meters and 2 pressure meters were installed at 6 tunnel stations. Installation of these meters and interpretation of the test results are discussed. Measurements were made over a 5-yr period. Liner stresses based on these measurements indicate that about one-fifth of the total static head was resisted by the liners. (Author)
