Abstract

The existing NATM (New Austrian Tunneling Method) has induced civil compliants due to blasting vibration and noise. Machanized excavation methods such as TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) are being adopted in the planning and construction of tunneling projects. Shield TBM method is composed of repetition processes of TBM excavation and segment installation, the machine has to be stopped during the later process. Consecutive excavation technology using helical segment is under developing to minimize the stoppage time. The modification of thrust jacks and module are planned to ensure the advance force acting on the inclined surface of helical segment. Also, the integrated system design of hydraulic circuit will be remodeled. This means that the system deactivate the jacks on the installing segment while the others automatically act the thrusting forces on the existing segments. This report briefly introduces the mechanical research part of the current consecutive excavation technological development project of TBM.

도심지 터널 건설에서 발파공법은 민원이 제기되는 문제점이 있어 적용에 제약받고 있다. 이에 대한 대안으로 TBM 및 기계굴착 공법 적용이 필수적으로 검토되고 있다. 이 중 쉴드 TBM(Tunnel Boring Machine)은 굴진과 세그먼트 체결이 번갈아 반복되며 굴진하는 공정을 가지고 있는데, 세그먼트 체결 동안 굴진을 멈추게 된다. 이러한 가동 정지시간을 최소화하고자 세그먼트 체결 중에도 가동할 수 있는 연속굴착형 TBM 기술이 개발되고 있다. 나선형 세그먼트의 굴진 반력을 확보하기 위해 추진잭을 개조하고 신뢰성을 확보하는 연구가 진행 중이다. 또한 체결 중 세그먼트를 제외한 나머지 부분의 추진잭을 가동하는 유압제어 및 유압시스템 설계기술이 개발될 예정이다. 본 보고는 연속굴착형 TBM 과제 중 부품개조 및 유압제어 기술에 대한 일부 내용을 소개한다.
