As an important traffic engineering, tunnel construction is of great significance to the development of modern cities and the convenience of transportation. In the construction of the tunnel, the steel tunnel lining is an important structural material, and its role cannot be ignored.

Firstly. Overview of steel tunnel lining

Steel tunnel lining refers to the steel plate set inside the tunnel. Its main function is to protect the tunnel structure, prevent damage and corrosion of the tunnel wall, and at the same time enhance the bearing capacity and stability of the tunnel. The use of steel tunnel lining can effectively improve the service life and safety performance of the tunnel, and can also reduce maintenance costs and construction periods.

Second, the advantages of steel tunnel lining

1. Excellent corrosion resistance

The steel tunnel lining is made of high-strength steel, and its surface has been specially treated to make it have excellent corrosion resistance. Inside the tunnel, the tunnel structure is easily damaged due to the humid environment and chemical corrosion. The use of steel tunnel lining can effectively prevent this from happening, thereby prolonging the service life of the tunnel.

2. Excellent compressive strength

Steel tunnel lining has excellent compressive strength and can withstand greater pressure. In tunnel construction, steel tunnel lining can play a role in strengthening the tunnel structure, thereby improving the bearing capacity and stability of the tunnel.

3. Short construction period and low maintenance cost

The construction period of the steel tunnel lining is short, which can greatly shorten the construction period of the tunnel. At the same time, the maintenance cost of the steel tunnel lining is relatively low, which can reduce the maintenance cost and use cost of the tunnel.

3. Application of steel tunnel lining

Steel tunnel linings are widely used in various types of tunnels, such as road tunnels, railway tunnels, subway tunnels, etc. In tunnel construction, steel tunnel lining can not only protect the tunnel structure, but also improve the bearing capacity and stability of the tunnel, thereby improving the safety performance and service life of the tunnel.

At present, steel tunnel lining manufacturers at home and abroad have developed various types of steel tunnel lining products, such as reinforced concrete composite steel plate, steel fiber reinforced concrete composite steel plate, steel-concrete composite tunnel lining, etc. These different types of steel tunnel lining products have their own advantages and scope of application, and can be selected according to different tunnel construction needs.

In conclusion, as an important tunnel structural material, steel tunnel lining has obvious advantages and is widely used. In future tunnel construction, steel tunnel lining will be more widely used and promoted.
