Bringing together the TBMs requires careful fabrication and assembly of materials, utilizing various digital modelling technologies.
The Structure Team is responsible for managing the assembly and disassembly of the lining structure. We manage the prototyping and designing of every component to ensure sustainable TBM construction.
Civil engineering and Tunnel Support Structures
Unlocking the underground tunneling support with powerful pre-fabricated structure. A composition that is conducted through experiment combines with technology of digital model, virtual reality (VR) and 3D printing. VR and 3D-printed prototype of various models interact as a unity to improve the assembly and disassembly of the lining structure.
Moreover, sustainability is at the heart of our approach. As part of our commitment to eco-conscious engineering, we meticulously calculate the carbon emissions associated with tunnel construction. This enables us to implement environmentally friendly practices and minimize the project's ecological footprint.
With a focus on innovation, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness, the Monash BEST Structure Division stands ready to take on the challenges of modern tunnel engineering, ensuring safer, greener, and more efficient transportation solutions for the future.
Lining Casting
Showcases the construction and testing process of these tunnel prototypes. We take great pride in our meticulous approach to ensuring the reliability and efficiency of our designs.
Model in Digitization Software
Simulate the pre-fabricated lining structure under real conditions to explore its full potential and conclude the final design.
Numerical Modelling
Utilizing advanced RS2 software, we conduct comprehensive computations to analyze the mean stress distribution around the tunnels. This critical data helps us fine-tune and optimize the structural integrity of the tunnels, ensuring they meet the highest standards of safety and durability.
Compression Test
The team's dedication to assessing the strength of the down-scaled tunnel is carried out through rigorous compression tests. These tests provide essential insights into the load-bearing capacity and resilience of our tunnel designs.
Failure Recording
We utilised a Phantom® High Speed Camera to provide insights into the failure points and structural weaknesses of our tunnel lining. Every compression test conducted is thoroughly recorded, serving as a valuable resource for future reference and improvement.
