The discussion is centered upon the relatively more important or difficult ground conditions including borability limits, instability of excavation walls, instability of excavation face, fault zones and squeezing.

INTRODUCTION TBM excavation represent a big investment in an unflexible but potentially very fast method of excavating and supporting a rock tunnel (Barton

6、, 1996). When unfavorable conditions are encountered without warning, time schedule and practical consequences are often far greater in a TBM driven tunnel than in a drill and blast tunnel. The unfavorable conditions can be produced by either a rock mass of very poor quality causing instability of t

However, it is to be observed that when using the full face mechanized excavation method, the influence of the rock mass quality on the machine performance has not an absolute value:

8、the 西南交通大学本科 毕业设计 第 2 页 influence is in fact to be referred to both the TBM type used and the tunnel diameter. Right from the beginning of its earliest applications, the use of full face mechanized excavation was to overcome the limits imposed by local geology, the economic challenges and schedule c

A prominent example is given by the recent (from 1995 to 2000) construction of the one tube 24.5 km long Laerdal Tunnel in Norway, the worlds longest road tunnel. The 100m*m cross section tunnel is being ex

The excavation is carried out by the drill and blast method, which been evaluated to be less expensive and more reliable than the

The average progress rate is 4.8 5.0 km per year with two faces, against the 2.3-4.8 km per year, estimated for a large diameter TBM (Kovari et al., 1993) With this background in mind, this paper is intended to address the problem of TBM tunnelling in difficult ground c

Based on a few selected case examples, the discussion is centered upon the relatively more important or difficult ground conditions which can be listed as follows: borability limits； instability of excavation walls； instability of excavation face； faut zones； squeezing.

13、G The practically infinity number of combinations rock, soil and environmental conditions which may be encountered during tunnel excavation has determined a great difference in the types and characteristics of the available TBMs . There are many different schemes for the classification of tunnelling machines. For the example the AITES/ITA Working Group No.14 (Mechnisation of Excavation ) is currently working on the definition of an internationally acceptable classification of TBMs with the purpose of establishing terminology and “terminology” for the optimum choice of the machine (Table 1).
