Development of TBM prognosis method that works,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: TBM Tunnelling in Jointed and Faulted Rock (Hardcover)
This slim volume first analyses factors affecting tunneling speeds as expressed by penetration rate PR, and actual advance rate AR. A 1000 km and 145 case record analysis shows how TBM advance rate gradually declines, whether breaking world records like 16 km in one year, or when stuck in a fault zone without pre-treatment for weeks or months or worse. TBM are remarkable machines, but classification of the ground to be penetrated, and especially the machine-rock interaction is all important.This volume records the development of a TBM performance prognosis method, now facilitated by a graphic performance model called Qtbm, using the mostly simple formulae developed.
