Design constraints for full-face tunnelling machines in coal mines
Summary Some of the factors affecting the performance of a tunnel-boring machine in the Sea Drift tunnel at Dawdon Colliery are examined. These illustrate the potential for tunnelling machines in Coal Measures strata as a means for rapid excavation of a stable tunnel profile, and the difficulties likely to be encountered in zones of sheared or weak ground.
