Appendix D TBM Tunnel Assumptions and Cost Estimating Output

Appendix D TBM Tunnel Assumptions and Cost Estimating Output

Discussion:

The tunnel costs were estimated using TBM cost estimating software and cost database developed by Hatch Mott MacDonald. Appendix D contains output from the software for each TBM type and tunnel diameter. Please note the following about the output:

1. ‘Rock Types’ are called ‘TBM Types’ in the main body of the report.

2. ‘Rock Type A/B’ is called ‘TBM Type B’ in the main body of the report.

3. The costs for concrete inverts were not included in the output in the appendices. These were added in the CNA cost estimating spreadsheet. The inverts are needed to provide a flat working surface. Inverts were added to TBM Types A and C only because it was assumed that the TBM Type B cast-in-place liner could be formed with a flat bottom.

4. The costs of grouting for water control were not included in the appendices. These were added in the CNA cost estimating spreadsheet. Grouting was added to TBM Types A and B only. TBM Type C is a sealed system that does not allow water to enter the tunnel so grouting is not required.

Assumptions

General

The following assumptions apply to all tunnel drives:

• 4800 metres of tunnel from shaft to shaft

• 2 ten hours shifts undertaken daily, 5 days per week

• Tunnels excavated using 3.66 metre or 4.88 metre finished diameter rock TBM

• 75 percent of TBM cost written off in first drive, 15 percent in second drive, 10 percent in third drive, and 0 percent in fourth and fifth drives

Specific

Assumptions used for 3.66m (12ft) diameter tunnel in Rock Type A as follows:

• No areas of difficult excavation

• A total of 400 3 metre long rockbolts installed sporadically in the tunnel crown in jointed or potentially weak zones

• Average tunnel advance rate of 225 metres per week

• No secondary lining required

Assumptions used for 3.66m (12ft) diameter tunnel in Rock Type A/B (requiring CIP liner) as follows:


• Three rockbolts, 3 metres in length, installed in each 6 metre length of tunnel

Assumptions used for 3.66m (12ft) diameter tunnel in Rock Type C as follows:

• Areas of difficult excavation encountered, slowing normal advance rate by 20 percent, over 20 percent of the tunnel length

• No primary support provided with a 200mm thick segmental concrete lining installed immediately behind the TBM following each excavation cycle


Assumptions used for 4.88m (16ft) diameter tunnel in Rock Type A as follows:

Assumptions used for 4.88m (16ft) diameter tunnel in Rock Type A/B (requiring CIP liner) as follows:


• Three rockbolts, 3 metres in length, installed in each 4.5 metre length of tunnel


• Secondary cast-in-place concrete lining installed to prevent long term degradation of the rock

Assumptions used for 4.88m (16ft) diameter tunnel in Rock Type C as follows:


• No primary support provided with a 225mm thick segmental concrete lining installed immediately behind the TBM following each excavation cycle

Appendix E TBM Tunnel Assumptions and Cost Estimating Output (Not Used)

Discussion:

The tunnel costs were estimated using TBM cost estimating software and cost database developed by Hatch Mott MacDonald. Appendix E contains output from the software for TBM types and tunnel diameters not used in the final estimate, but is included here for completeness. Please note the following about the output:

1. ‘Rock Types’ are called ‘TBM Types’ in the main body of the report.

2. Appendix E contains Rock Types B and B+, which are not used in the final estimate.
