Pipe jacking AG

Pipe jacking which continues to be developed further is a breakthrough in particular for the installation and modernization of underground supply and disposal lines Visible at the surface a launch and a target shaft are set up at distances of up to 2 000 meters apart and more depending on the nominal diameters of the pipes the geological

Observational Methods and NATM IITK

The main principles of NATM are • The main load bearing component of the tunnel is the surrounding rock mass Support ismass Support is informal i e it consists of earth/ it consists of earth/rock anchors andanchors and

Investigation for Tunnel Civil Engineering Notes

Investigation for Tunnel • Tunnel is a nearly horizontal underground passage which is open at both ends • Tunnels are of different types according to their uses like traffic tunnel hydropower headrace tunnel and public utility tunnels etc

Design and construction of tunnels in zones

The stress state in rock masses at such depths either because of the overburden or due to the tectonic conditions of the rock mass induces high convergences of the tunnel walls These high convergence values are incompatible with the

A Numerical Approach for Evaluating the

in rock masses without the need of introducing any simplifying hypotheses for the description of the stress strain relations in a plastic field Keywords Tunnel Wall Displacement Convergence Confinement Curve

TUNNELS SHAFT AND DEVELOPMENT HEADINGS

TUNNELS SHAFT AND DEVELOPMENT HEADINGS BLAST DESIGN INTRODUCTION Tunnels shafts and raises are developed for a variety of purposes In mines development headings provide mine access for men and materials ore and waste hoisting and ventilation paths Shafts are also used in civil construction projects In hydroelectric projects shafts and tunnels

Design of rock support system under rockburst

Design of rock support system under rockburst condition support design principles and acceptability criteria this paper describes that the support selection process in burst prone ground is iterative requiring design verification and modification based on field observations An interactive design tool for conducting rockburst support design in underground tunnels

Rock bolt

A rock bolt is a long anchor bolt for stabilizing rock excavations which may be used in tunnels or rock cuts It transfers load from the unstable exterior to the confined and much stronger interior of the rock mass

Evaluation of Rock Quality of Tunnel Wall Rock Based

The measured wall rock samples belong to Yuanyanghui tunnel which is located in Shanyin Pinglu section of Rong Wu Expressway and is a separated tunnel with four lanes The evaluation method is applied to evaluate the wall rock grade The raw data of the wall rock samples are listed in Table

Blog Dewatering for Tunnels and Shafts

However some inflow can be good and in hard rock tunnels the urge to seal every inflow should be resisted as the inflows may usefully depressurise the ground ahead of the face and seepage to the tunnel may reduce with time Managing Face Stability and Base Stability In soils and soft rocks stability of the face of a tunnel or the base of a shaft

Mechanised Shield Tunnelling

HALLANDSÅS TUNNELS AFTES

• Originally estimated over 20% of tunnel alignment • Transport of excavated rock by slurry circuit 1800 m3/hr increased later to 2024 m3/hr

Tunnels Loch Ness Investigation

Tunnels and caves are most often found in areas of soluble rock such as limestone Limestone is formed from the accumulated remains of all manner of deceased sea creatures Over extremely long periods of time slightly acidic groundwater dissolves the carbonate component of the rock and the remaining particles are washed away

Single Shield TBM AG

The Single Shield TBM is secured in the ground using segments or pipe jacking This minimizes the dependency between tunnelling and tunnel lining in brittle rock formations or rock with low strength The machine is protected at all times additional measures to secure the rock are usually not necessary and corresponding delays in tunnelling can
