Construction – Tunnelling Techniques

Bored Tunnels

Shield type machines with precast segmental tunnel lining

Used when surface access is very limited at depths typically below one tunnel diameter

Longer tunnel lengths where economical to use machine

Cut and Cover Tunnels

Typically concrete box structures constructed in excavated ground

Used at shallower depths where there is good surface access

Mined/Sprayed Concrete Lining Tunnels

Mechanically excavated with sprayed concrete lining in suitable ground conditions

Used in shorter drives and cross passages

Settlement & Rate of Tunnelling

The rate of tunnelling is dependent on ground conditions. It is also important in minimising settlement,

which is achieved by operating tunnel boring machines appropriately such as using Earth Pressure

Balance machines in “closed” mode.

In order to keep settlement to acceptable limits HS2 has specified maximum of 1% volume loss for bored

tunnels. The Promoter’s policy on ground settlement is set out in Information Paper C14.

Continuous 24 hour tunnelling also minimises settlement as it doesn’t allow time for the for the ground to

fully relax.

Construction Aspects – Noise from Tunnel Drive Site

Bored tunnelling activities and the associated local site material handling will be operated 24 hours a day.

Noise mitigation is provided by the standard means such as hoarding, muffling, baffles and noise

suppression on plant and equipment .

Tunnel sites will be subject to the same HS2 procedures set out under the Code of Construction practice

and will be subject to Local Authority Approval under Section 61 of Control of Pollution Act.

Construction Aspects – Noise from Tunnel Boring

Sound and vibration from the tunnel boring machine will be perceptible inside properties for a few days

as it passes beneath them.

The effects of ground‐borne sound and vibration from the machine on building occupiers will be

short‐term and is not considered to be significant.
