Abstract: Chinese subway construction is currently in a stage of rapid development, and most of them are built in the prosperous areas of the city. The pollution control caused by the excavation and construction of subway stations is relatively strict. If the terrain is thicker, harder, and more complex rock formations, the rock excavation and construction is difficult. How to speed up the hard rock excavation and construction progress under the premise of ensuring the safety of the foundation pit, surrounding buildings, pedestrians, and vehicles? The construction period requirement is a major problem faced by subway foundation pit excavation. The CO2 cracking rock excavation technology（CO2 rock demolition system） is adopted to drill and expand the rock mass with the open face to make the rock mass rupture and slide to form the boundary surface of the free space, and then continue along the open face after the cracking rock. Large-area drilling in the direction for CO2 gas cracking construction can efficiently and quickly complete the excavation of the deep foundation pit of the station.
1 Project overview
A subway station in Guangzhou is a four-story underground station with a total length of 445.21m, a standard section width of 23.8m, and a foundation pit depth of about 30m. The rock surface where the station is located is shallowly buried, mainly composed of quaternary rocks such as slightly weathered conglomerate, slightly weathered argillaceous siltstone, slightly weathered sandy mudstone, slightly weathered mudstone, and slightly weathered mixed pebble conglomerate, with high rock strength and slightly weathered The excavation depth of the rock is 6-20m, and the slightly weathered rock face becomes thicker toward the north. According to the actual situation, the remaining stonework at the north end of the station is about 80,000 m3, with a length of about 240m.
2 Principle of CO2 gas cracking rock（rock demolition system）
The principle of CO2 gas rock cracking（rock demolition system） is to use liquid carbon dioxide to rapidly and rapidly gasify and expand under the condition of sudden heating to produce a strong impact force. Through appropriate control, the effect of rock cracking is created.
First, use the filling machine to fill the liquid carbon dioxide into the cracker (and also install the heating device, the bottom iron sheet, etc.), and install the cracker into the hole to tightly seal the hole; then use the exciter to activate The heating device in the cracker makes the liquid carbon dioxide rapidly expand more than 1,000 to 2,000 times under the condition of rapid heating, which instantly generates a strong impact pressure (300 to 400 MPa). Break through the iron sheet at the bottom of the seal, and then quickly rush out along the set vent hole. Due to the closed hole, the gas cannot leak freely, which will impact the surrounding rocks and produce destructive effects, resulting in a rock cracking（rock demolition） effect.
3 Advantages of carbon dioxide gas cracking rock（rock demolition system）
