Abstract: In mechanized tunneling construction with Earth Pressure Balance (EPB) machines, the conditioned excavated soil paste inside the chamber is employed as the support medium. Information on the actual pressure distribution in the chamber is important to evaluate the effective safety of the tunnel face against loss of stability. On job-sites, pressure sensors are often installed on the bulkhead and...
