Tunnelling to bypass major landslide areas is considered as a good and long-term environmentally friendly solution to reduce an existing hazard. In Norway, hundreds of kilometres of tunnels have been constructed in areas prone to landslides and snow avalanches. Although tunnelling is considered as an expensive mitigation strategy for bypassing landslides, analysis indicate that in some cases the cost of building a tunnel can be repaid by savings in driving costs (fuel) alone over a period of 5-10 years due to reduced driving distances. The other benefits of constructing tunnels in landslide areas include savings in time and increased safety. The Norwegian Method of Tunnelling (NMT) is considered safe, efficient and cost effective compared to other tunnelling techniques. Some aspects of NMT, which are considered safe and cost efficient, are presented. The application of updated rock support techniques, including reinforced ribs of shotctrete (RRS), which is a key component of the Norwegian Method of Tunnelling (NMT), is highlighted.

This paper considers the stresses and pore pressures induced in soft ground due to tunnelling and it presents and discusses the approach methods for estimating the stability of the tunnel and its heading during drained and undrained condition. In practical, the undrained analyses of the face stability of shield tunnelling in soft soil, are carried out based on the field data measured during tunnelling and the results are also evaluated.

The application of T.B.M tunnelling has been progressively increased since the first entrance into Korea in 1985 and especially, its higher performance and safety is widely proved as a generalized tunnelling in hardrock tunnel construction, comparing wi th conventional method. This case announcement will be much helpful for your general understanding of T.B.M tunnelling and the development of tunneling technology by introducing the brief methods and construction results from the actual application cases of T.B.M tunnelling in Ulsan Water Supply Tunnel Project, the longest tunnel in Korea under construction by YOU ONE.
