Reasons for Soil Conditioning

Increase TBM speedDecrease clogging & adhesion effects

Save energy & timeDecrease costs

Reduce dust, ventilation, wear

Save energyIncrease security

Avoid surface settlementand/or collapseEnable proper EPB mode

Increase security

Reduce cutterhead torque (requiments)

Save energyDecrease costs

Soil conditioning agents

Decrease clogging, adhesion, transport problemsIncrease the TBM speed

Why use different foams?

air incorporation properties

half life time

anti-clay behaviour

ion-sensibility (Ca, Na, ...)

rheological behaviour

soil draining behaviour

Foams have different properties:

Lab tests have to be carried out prior to site use!

Anti‐clay additivesUse in clay and clayey soils

- adhesion on metal surfaces- agglomeration (cohesion) of soil chips to big blocks

Problem

- clogging of the cutterhead- clogging in the working chamber

Consequence

Result

- low TBM speed

- high maintenance & revision costs

Why is an annulus grout important• To give early stability as 

construction occurs

• To prevent heave / flotation of the lining

• To take early load in the build area

• To reduce settlement, especially in non‐cohesive soils

• To prevent segmental misalignment and the rupturing of gaskets

• To eliminate / reduce water ingressto avoid secondary injection (costly)

Filling of the annulus gap

● For this purpose a pressurized mortar or grout is used which we call backfill grout or annulus grout.Generally the strength only needs to match or slightly exceed the shear strength of the surrounding soil.

● This allows the natural stress in the ground to be maintained.Less stress displacement causes less soil movement and surface

settlement.

Typical situation in hard rock TBM excavation

dust & temperature• not good for the worker‘s health• reduce life-time of equipment• expensive exhausting

excessive wear is a direct cost issue• cutter cost• maintenance cost (cutter changes are time consuming)• damaged cutters can lead to cutter head damages

down time• the more frequent cutters have to be changed,

the more down time it means for the TBM • during down time the tunnel does not make any progress

number of cutters changed typically varied from 5-28 per day

high maintenance cost, lot of down time

due to the high temperature, cutters can get blocked (failure of bearing seal)

Why using ABR5?

current practice: injecting water

• lots of dust is not cached by the water• the cutter temperature can still be higher than 100°C • the use of water contributes to higher cutter wear.

use of MEYCO® Fix ABR5 makes the difference

• effective dust suppression makes the working environment healthier and increases the life time of the electronic equipment

• cutter temperature can be reduced down to 60-80°C (depending on the conditions) due to better heat transfer and mucking out

• increase of life time of the cutter sealing

• decrease of wear due to lubrication effect and reduced water injection

• decrease of TBM downtime due to reduced maintenance needs
