The Advanced Tunneling Method
SHIELD TBM
Introduction
Advantages and Factors Considered
Advantages
Minimize works on the ground besides both shafts for launch and arrival of shield TBM.
Minimize noise, vibration, dust, pollution, etc. from construction.
Minimize disturbance ~
Minimize diversion of existing underground facilities along tunnel alignment.
The process is repetitive, so that most of the works can be automated and easily managed.
A method of underground tunneling using Shield TBM

(Tunnel Boring Machines)
Compared to cut & cover method, the depth of tunnel has influence on the construction cost.
Tunneling under river, sea, buildings, etc. is made easy compared to other methods of tunneling.
It is possible to construct more curved and steep tunnel than other methods.
Since many researches are still ongoing in the advancement of shield TBM, it is expected to be
A method of tunnel excavation which avoids ground collapse and ground settlement.
Subsequently after the excavation, segmented lining is installed from the rear part of the
shield TBM.
DONGAH GEOLOGICAL ENGINEERING CO.,LTD
This method can prevent the collapse and settlement of the ground during excavation.
With excavating the ground, segmented lining is installed from the rear part of the shield TBM.
Compared to the cut & cover method for excavation, this method is considered as much
safer & eco-friendly method.
Complexity of construction is less than cut & cover method.
Less disturbance to surrounding structures & people, which implies suitability for down town tunnels.
Factors Considered
Additional counterplan such as ground improvement can be required to maintain the face pressure
in control and prevent ground settlement if the soil cover of excavation section is thin.
Wider working area can be required for shafts of launch and arrival compared to other methods.
A lot of works at the shafts can cause construction pollution such as noise & vibration to
surrounding circumstances.

The face pressure balance is maintained by the chamber pressure (open, closed mode of
pressure gate) and by the screw conveyor operation (hauling speed).
Bentonite or foam will be required to ease the flow of excavated material.
Earth Pressure Balanced Shield Layout
Slurry Discharge Pipe

STP
(Separation of soil & water)
The slurry pressure is applied to cutting surface for maintaining the face pressure.
The pressure wall also helps to maintain the face pressure in control.
Be suitable for the ground such as loose sand, soft clay, and whose underground water level is high.

Advantages & Disadvantages of EPB Shield

Advantages
Ease to identify the type of excavated
material.
Less space and facilities is required for site
layout compared to slurry method.
The disposal process of the material is
simple compared to slurry method.
Be possible to construct in clayey ground.

Advantages
Disadvantages
The face pressure balance is easily maintained

by slurry in the unstable ground.
Enable to be applied under various ground types.
Working environment is clean within tunnel.
Transporting the excavated material to the
ground is easy and continuous transport is
possible.
More space and facilities is required for site

layout compared to EPB method.
Some additives are required for separating
fine-grained soil.

Quality Control
Construction Process
Shield skin gauge
This gauge, as an additional monitoring system,
is used to detect the following.

Excavation diameter
Time to replace roller bits.
Presence of voids(air/water pockets).
Shaft Construction
TBM Assembly
Initial Drive
The cutter head interventions can be forecasted by checking the cutter wear.
Through this gauge, it is possible to prevent unexpected interruptions such as sudden cutter head

EPB Type
Break Through
intervention and precautionary measures can be carried out earlier if the voids are detected.
Monitoring Volume of Excavated Material
Over view
U Turn
The monitoring is carried out to control amount of excavated material using the automatic 3D-laser
scanning equipment which enables to monitor continuously & accurately.
This monitoring makes it possible to prevent the ground settlement due to excessive excavation.
