Preconditioning High-Strength Boulders for TBM Tunnelling by Ground Drilling and Blasting
A spherical weathering body, also called a boulder, is an element of complex geological strata and presents a significant challenge to tunnelling by a tunnel-boring machine (TBM). In this study, ground-based drilling and blasting were used to precondition boulders. To determine the specific charge needed for preconditioning blasting, model blasts were conducted, and the relationships among the specific charge, fragment size, and overburden depth in the model blasts were investigated. The determined specific charge from the model blasts was then modified by considering the overburden depth and used to precondition the boulders for practical TBM tunnelling. The results indicate the following: (1) model blasts were effective in determining the correct specific charge and predicting boulder fragment sizes resulting from blasting; (2) the boulders met in practical TBM tunnelling were successfully preconditioned by using the determined specific charge; (3) the determined specific charge was 3.26 kg/m3, corresponding to an average fragment size 4.5 cm with an overburden of zero and increased with increasing overburden; (4) fragment sizes were dependent on both the specific charge and overburden depth. Our conclusions can be used to accurately determine the specific charge instead of empirical formulas.
