Face Support, Soil Conditioning and Material Transport in Earth-Pressure-Balance and Hydro Shield Machines

Abstract: The excavation process in mechanised tunnelling consists of various technical components whose interaction enables safe tunnel driving. In reference to the existing geological and hydrogeological conditions, different types of face support principles are applied. In case of fine-grained cohesive soils, the face support is provided by Earth Pressure Balanced (EPB) machines, while the Slurry Shield (SLS) technology is adapted in medium-grained to coarse grained non-cohesive soils even under high groundwater pres… Show more
