The advancement construction method often faces many challenges during the excavation process. Here are examples of how those problems were solved!
Have you ever faced any of these issues when performing construction using thrusting methods? ▶ Construction was halted due to encountering obstacles like wooden stakes or H-beams... ▶ The time and cost of construction increased, leading to delays or interruptions... ▶ Construction over difficult distances could not be managed with standard equipment and methods... The "Milling Mole Method" solves these problems associated with thrusting methods! 【Example of a resolved case】 ✔ Sewer construction in Osaka City Planned to push 127 meters in one span using a standard mud slurry method with a diameter of φ80mm. Immediately after starting, the machine encountered wooden stakes, making it impossible to proceed, and the excavation was halted. By changing the plan to adopt the Milling Mole Method, the presence of obstacles was confirmed by discharging wood chips, and the thrusting was completed. ✔ Sewer construction in Osaka Prefecture Planned to push 119 meters in one span using a standard mud slurry method with a diameter of φ1800mm. While excavating about 10 meters, the machine encountered support piles of a bridge pier, making it impossible to proceed, and both the excavation machine and thrusting pipe were left underground. By changing the plan to adopt the Milling Mole Method, re-excavation was carried out from the same launch shaft. The reinforced concrete pipe that became an obstacle was cut, and the discharge of metal fragments, thrusting pipe collars, and rebar was confirmed, allowing safe passage through the obstacle section, and the thrusting was completed. *We are currently providing materials such as "Case Studies of Problem Solving" and "Comparison of Methods for Dealing with Obstacles in Thrusting Methods" from the PDF!

basic information
Example of a resolved case, among others: ✔ Sewage construction in Osaka Prefecture A plan to advance 229 meters in one span using a standard mud slurry method with a diameter of 1000 mm. During pre-construction consultations, it was discovered that H-beams were present underground. The plan was changed to adopt the milling mole method, confirming the presence or absence of obstacles (H-300) at two locations through the discharge of metal fragments, and the advancement was completed. ✔ Sewage pipe installation work in Osaka Prefecture Encountered a steel sheet pile left underground during previous construction, rendering advancement impossible, and the tunneling machine was left underground for many years. It was discovered that steel sheet piles type III were also present in the re-planned pipeline section. The milling mole method was adopted, confirming the presence or absence of obstacles through the discharge of metal fragments, and the advancement was completed. ✔ Water supply pipe installation work in Osaka Prefecture A plan to advance 72 meters in one span using a small diameter of 500 mm was implemented. During approximately 20 meters of advancement, the machine encountered an old stone embankment, making advancement impossible, and the tunneling machine was pulled back, interrupting the work. The plan was changed to adopt the milling mole method, confirming the presence or absence of obstacles through the discharge of stone blocks, and the advancement was completed. *Please download the PDF or contact us for more information.
