SEISMIC DESIGN OF THE CUT AND COVER TUNNEL OF THE CANADA LINE RAPID TRANSIT
Construction of the Canada Line Rapid Transit Project is currently underway in Vancouver, BC. The 19 km rapid transit system includes 6.6 km of cut and cover box structure one of the longest cut and cover rapid transit tunnels in Canada. The design for the cast-in-place reinforced concrete box included standard side-by-side, stacked, special cross-over single box and transitional rollover configurations. The seismic design accounted for both pressure-based and racking displacement-based demands. The racking displacements were based on state-of-the-art research on soil-structure interaction analyses. Four different types of soil conditions were encountered over the 6.6 km length of tunnel. State-of-the-practice seismic design was utilized to produce cost-effective structures for the project.
