Abstract
The new Austrian tunnelling method (NATM) and tunnel boring machine (TBM) are methods for excavating underground spaces. The NATM construction method has noise and vibration problems, and excavation using TBM has the disadvantage of high initial cost and is limited by ground conditions. A parallel TBM and NATM construction method has been developed to overcome these limitations. However, research on the TBM and NATM parallel construction method is lacking, and it is crucial to identify the applicability of the TBM and NATM parallel construction method in advance by applying it to various ground and blasting conditions. In this study, based on the vibration measurement data of the excavation site using the NATM construction method, the vibration measurement values generated when excavating the top surface using the existing NATM construction method and the TBM and NATM parallel construction methods were compared. Lastly, the vibration reduction effect of the two construction methods was analysed according to the tunnel excavation depth and tunnel size through 3D numerical analysis. As the depth of tunnel excavation increases, the vibration at the ground surface is reduced by up to 83%. In addition, as the ratio of the size of the blasting surface with NATM and the excavation surface with TBM is closer to 1.0, the vibration decreases.
