Tunnels Taking Shape ⭕ The first of two world class tunnel boring machines has started tunnelling a section of the 6.5km twin tunnels from Watsonia to Bulleen. Duncan Elliott, CEO of Major Road Projects Victoria explains what’s in store over the next couple of years.

#Tunneling | Do you know what segments are and what's their function inside the Mont Cenis base tunnel? Segments are made of concrete and used for lining the tunnels excavated with TBM. For the cross-border section of the new #LyonTurin railway line, they are produced in special sites using aggregates obtained from the excavation of the tunnel. All suitable excavation materials are transformed into concrete and then into segments. Learn more with «the life of a segment» ▶

Microtunneling: The Precise Powerhouse of Trenchless Construction Need to create an underground passage with minimal disruption? Look no further than Microtunneling! This trenchless method utilizes a guided boring machine for exceptional accuracy, making it ideal for various projects. Here's why Microtunneling is a game-changer: Minimizes Disruption: Microtunneling keeps surface disruption to a minimum, reducing traffic congestion and protecting existing infrastructure. It's perfect for busy urban environments or environmentally sensitive areas. Precision Powerhouse: The guided boring machine ensures precise tunnel creation, minimizing the risk of damage to surrounding structures and utilities. This is crucial when navigating under roads, buildings, or waterways. Versatile Applications: Microtunneling tackles a wide range of projects, from installing pipelines for utilities and water to creating pedestrian walkways and environmental remediation tunnels. Considering Microtunneling for your next project? (#Microtunneling #TrenchlessTech #Underground) https://lnkd.in/g5EDiCk3

#ThrowBackThursday #Brisbane's Legacy Way was completed in 2015. This 4.6km twin-tunnel motorway set a new standard for tunnelling – with the two Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs), Annabell and Joyce, setting a world record of 49.7 metres tunnelled in a single day. Working with the community during the four-year construction period, a series of additional measures were taken: An acoustic shed was built to reduce the noise generated during the excavation works. The team also installed a 500m-long conveyor belt to evacuate the spill from the drilling, avoiding the need for over 180,000 truck journeys to transport the rubble to a nearby quarry. This avoided the emission of over 1,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Noise pollution, as well as the impact of dust on local vegetation, was drastically reduced. As a result, the project won the Lord Mayor’s Innovation Award in 2012. #SustainableInfrastructure #InvestInThePlanet #ACCIONAteam #worldrecord #innovationaward #tunnels #civilengineering #civilconstruction

When creating public transit tunnels, adding cross passages between them as an emergency evacuation route is a common practice. Soil grouting is necessary to ensure safe excavation between the existing tunnels. As seen in this video, there are two main methods – ground treatment from the surface and ground treatment from the tunnels. Regardless of which method you choose, Prime Resins provides chemical grouting solutions for your soil improvement needs. Need soil improvement? #ThinkPRIME https://lnkd.in/gJ5rXdV5
