Abstract
Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM), as the most advanced construction equipment for rock tunnels, has been widely used in railway tunnel engineering, water conservancy tunnel engineering, urban rail engineering, coal mine roadway engineering, and other fields. However, the disadvantage of TBM lies in its poor adaptability to complex geological conditions, resulting in a significant reduction in tunneling efficiency and even major accidents due to improper TBM construction measures, especially in weak and fractured strata, which pose a great challenge to TBM construction. Therefore, it is necessary to study the key technologies of TBM construction in weak and fractured strata in order to improve the efficiency of TBM construction. Based on the background of the TBM construction of the Gaoligongshan Tunnel on the Southwest Darui Railway, this paper provides a reference for safe and efficient TBM excavation in weak and fractured areas through research on equipment, excavation parameter control, and construction measures.
