Abstract

There is a growing need to apply TBM tunnelling method for the construction of underground facilities such as subways and utility tunnels in urban areas. Due to the variability and uncertainty of the ground, tunnelling in urban areas has various safety hazards which could cause damage to people and properties and it is very costly to recover from accidents. Therefore, it is very important to identify hazards from the planning and design phase and to establish risk mitigation measures. In this study, a total of 31 hazards affecting the stability of TBM tunnelling works in urban areas were listed from both the technical literature and correspondence with experts in tunnelling area. The importance and priorities of the hazards were analyzed by conducting Delphi technique, which is a decision-making method by consensus among experts. Finally, 12 hazards that satisfy the content validity criteria were settled and could be used as major control factors for accident prevention during TBM tunnelling works.

도심지에서 지하철, 공동구 등의 지하시설물 건설을 위해 TBM 터널 공법 적용의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 터널공사는 지반의 변동성 및 불확실성으로 인하여 건설 중 다양한 사고 발생 위험요소를 내재하고 있고, 사고발생 시 인명 피해 유발 및 복구에 큰 비용이 소요되므로 계획 및 설계 단계에서 공사의 위험요소를 도출하고 저감 대책을 수립하는 리스크 관리가 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 문헌 연구 및 전문가 의견 조사를 통하여 도심지 TBM 터널 공사 안정성에 영향을 미치는 총 31개의 위험요소를 도출하였고, 전문가 합의에 의한 의사결정 방법인 델파이 기법을 통해 위험요소별 중요도를 평가하였다. 최종적으로 내용타당도 기준을 만족하는 12개의 위험요소가 결정되었으며, TBM 터널공사 중 사고 예방을 위한 중점 관리요소로 활용 가능할 것이다.
