Abstract:
The present invention relates to a tunneling methods and, particularly to installing an internal or external pre-support member along with a post support member and an apparatus therefor. The tunneling method includes: excavating a pilot tunnel in a main tunnel to be built; radially forming a drilled hole from an excavation surface of the pilot tunnel to a tip end of an internal pre-support member of the main tunnel at locations in the pilot tunnel; inserting the internal pre-support member into the drilled hole, and conducting grouting and fixing the internal pre-support member; excavating the tunnel along an excavation line of the main tunnel and spraying shotcrete to an excavation surface of the main tunnel; installing a post-support member between internal pre-support members in the excavation surface of the main tunnel; and connecting the internal pre-support member and the post-support member with a plate type support member.

Claim (Index 11):
The tunneling method of  claim 5 , wherein a soil cover depth is replaced with an artificial reinforcement material and the external pre-support member is installed from the replaced soil cover depth to the cross section of the main tunnel and the outer side of the cross section of the main tunnel, in a case in which a soil cover depth of the main tunnel is thin and the ground of the main tunnel is soft.
