micropile reinforcement (for tunnelling) Explanation: The literal translation is "micropile umbrellas" or a "micropile umbrella arch", but I can't find any native English sources which use that term. Others just seem to generally talk about "micropiles". http://bestsupportunderground.com/tunnel/?lang=en https://ascelibrary.org/doi/10.1061/(ASCE)GT.1943-5606.00005... http://www.dfi.org/ISM/Proceedings/1999/V - Session 2A - 3 -... Since this seems to be one item in a list, I would suggest thinking laterally and going with a more general term of micropile reinforcement, which is what the example application of the equipment seems to be referring to. |

umbrella arch method (UAM) Explanation: umbrella arch method (UAM) Paraguas de micropilotes > Micropile umbrella /umbrella arch https://edoc.site/vocabulario-de-ingenieria-civil-espaol-e-i... https://www.researchgate.net/publication/298806646_The_Types... 1. Introduction Umbrella Arch Method (UAM) or Forepole is a conventional and economical method in tunnel excavation, and is in use to increase the excavation front sustainability, minimize the land subsidence, and prevent debris rocks f alling, tunnel faces’ breaking and landslides. In this strategy at first some holes will be drilled in a semi-circular pattern at a high point of the tunnel and around the tunnel crown. Putting some steel tubes into each of these holes and grouting them would form a strong umbrella arch tube above the tunnel crown. Pipes which are in-stalled in two consecutive steps, have overlapping length and for implementation of this overlapping, a certain angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the tunnel pipe will be taken in account. The main advantages of this method can be: stress reduction in drilling front, safety increase during drilling operations, simplicity of drilling operations and as a result increase in the drilling progress speed. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 34 mins (2018-07-17 18:18:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Structural-layout-of-the... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 days (2018-07-27 10:33:47 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Thank you. |
