Abstract
Slurry infiltration process contributes to the stability of tunnel face significantly during slurry shield tunneling construction. The support pressure cannot be transmitted efficiently to the face unless a compact filter cake forms. This paper aims at investigating the formation of filter cake in saturated sand by slurry infiltration column tests. A series of tests were performed under different filtration pressures using three concentrations of slurry in four types of saturated sand stratums. In order to obtain the characters of the infiltration process and filter cake, pore pressure evolution was measured. Three types of filter cakes were observed in the tests, including external filter cake, external filter cake plus internal filter cake and deep infiltration. External filter cake transmits support pressure efficiently, while the other two types of filter cakes cannot provide sufficiently support pressure for the tunnel face. Especially, deep infiltration behaves no capacity of retaining pressure and should be avoided in engineering practice.
