Abstract:As underground engineering extends into the western and deeper regions of China, more and more Luohe Formation sandstone layers will be encountered, which have weak cementation and high water content. It is a significant challenge to apply the open TBM, and the support system is crucial in determining whether TBM can excavate quickly and safely. Therefore, in order to optimize the support scheme, this paper analyzes the pore structure and porosity through CT scanning, the results indicate that the volume perce… Show more
