Monitoring and Analysis of Circumferential Pressure for Long‐Distance Pipe Jacking Construction in Composite Strata by Yunfei Zhao, Feilun Luo, Liang Xiong

“…The results show that: by analyzing the circumferential contact pressure obtained by the wireless sensing system, the pressure distribution of the pipe in the top soft and bottom hard strata is right>left>bottom>top; in the full‐section strata, the destruction of the lubricating mud sleeve will lead to the same contact pressure on one side and the bottom of the pipe; when the pipe traverse the interfaces of different rock strata, the stability of the lubricating mud sleeve will be affected, and thus the circumferential contact pressure will be altered. …”
