Abstract:The current design specifications,guidelines and handbooks already contain the detailed regulations regarding the design standards,design principles and fundamental requirements for the drainage of urban underpass tunnels. However,how to carry out the refined design and enhance the drainage capacity of tunnels still requires continuous exploration. Taking the tunnel of the Wuxi Gaolang Road Expressway Reconstruction Project as an example,the key points in the refined design of urban super-long tunnel drainage system are discussed from four aspects of the tunnel wastewater composition,longitudinal section design,water retaining system design and drainage system design. And some problems found in the engineering construction and final acceptance,and the improvement measures are summarized in order to provide the design guidance and reference cases for similar projects.
