Tunnels-Machine Excavation Rate of Progress. Machine Data
Information on 12, machine-bored water tunnels constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation is presented graphically and pictorially. Machine data, rates of progress, tunnel profiles, and rock types and strengths are given for each tunnel. The bored diameters of these tunnels vary from 9 to 21 feet. Rocks encountered in boring were: shale, sandstone, conglomerate, quartzite, limestone, siltstone, granite porphyry, granite gneiss, gneissic granodiorite, rhyolite, rhyodacite, and agglomerate. The compressive strengths of these rocks were 300 to 38,000 psi. The boring rates of the machines used varied from 17 to 107 feet for the average calendar day. The maximum progress was 403 feet in 1 three-shift day. This rate was attained in 17.3 hours of machine time while boring an 8-foot 7-inch finished-diameter tunnel through shale having a maximum compressive strength of 6,000 psi. Contract and miscellaneous data are also given for each of the tunnels.
