Hardrock Tunnel Boring Machines; Preface; Contents; 1 Historical Development and Future Challenges; 2 Basic Principles and Definitions; 3 Boring Operation; 4 Thrust; 5 Material Transport; 6 Backup Equipment; 7 Ventilation, Dust Removal, Working Safety, Vibration; 8 Additional Equipment; 9 Tunnel Support; 10 Gripper TBM and Shield Machine Combinations; 11 Special Processes: Combinations of TBM Drives with Shotcrete; 12 Geological Investigations and Influences; 13 Classification for Excavation and Support; 14 Tendering, Award, Contract; 15 Tunnel Lining; 16 Examples of Completed Tunnels.
This book covers the fundamentals of tunneling machine technology: drilling, tunneling, waste removal and securing. It treats methods of rock classification for the machinery concerned as well as legal issues, using numerous example projects to reflect the state of technology, as well as problematic cases and solutions. The work is structured such that readers are led from the basics via the main functional elements of tunneling machinery to the different types of machine, together with their areas of application and equipment. The result is an overview of current developments.
