(German Standard for Industry
18723 Part 7 from 1990)
A gyroscope (northseeking
gyro) is a pendulous
suspended, electronic driven
gyro, which spin vector is
influenced by gravity and
earth rotation. It will directed
to astronomic north.

8. Requirements on accuracy of tunnel/roadway position depend on:
Used tunneling method (e.g. TBM or blasting )
Use of the tunnel in operation (e.g. high speed railway tunnel / roadway tunnel)
Examples for challenging requirements in accuracy:
Predefined demounting construction position with 5 cm variance for the TBM
Required alignment accuracy better than 5 cm at each tunnel position for high
speed railway tunnels
Required accuracy of 10 cm for cut-through of two underground roadways
High accuracy tunnel survey
Requirements on position measurement in tunnels
9. Establishment of an efficient Survey System including:
Surface network, created e.g. by GNSS
Transfer of surface network into the tunnel via open traverse lines:
Survey point distances in the tunnel range between 50 m and > 200 m
Survey points are mostly located at flanks, rarely in the middle of the tunnel
Deviations and errors propagate with every survey point
Failures in positioning increase with tunnel length
Deviations are unavoidable!
In particular:
refraction error
plumbing error
error propagation
will lead into lateral deviation

layers of temperatures between
the tunnel walls and tunnel

14. Water supply tunnel for a 420 MW hydropower plant
Length: 25,8 km, diameter: 7 – 8 m
Driven by two TBM from two sites: intake and outlet
1 Gyro campaign 1 km before planned cut-through
Driving status while survey: intake tunnel: 7,5 km
outlet tunnel:17,5 km
Extreme environmental conditions while survey:
temperature up to 42
О
C; air humidity: 99%
Result: determination of significant lateral deviation in
both tunnels of up to 2,5 m at calculated cut-through
position
By the way: in consideration of the environmental conditions,
2,5 m lateral deviation is good result for open traverses over
these large distances.
Gilgel Gibe II tunnel in Ethiopia
Case study: water supply tunnel
15. Achieved lateral deviation: < 5 cm
Scenario without correction:
Lateral deviation of > 2,5 m which
corresponds to a third of total tunnel width
Possible consequence of scenario above:
Additional construction efforts to correct the
direction which would had exceeded
multiple the costs and time for gyro
campaign
Result of cut-through after correction of driving direction:

unavoidable refractions at the traverse

by optimizing the interior work
Railway engineering:
This deviation can be compensated
by minimal track moving over 300 m
Surveyor:
Considerable result

30. Sewer tunnel project of the City of
Portland (Oregon/USA) constructed
by TBM (Herrenknecht)
Length of 5,5 km with no remarkable
incline or curves, diameter: 5 m
After the short distance of only 500 m
tunneling two different survey
campaigns
one by contractor’s surveyor
one by client’s surveyor
showed lateral differences of more
than 25 cm

31. Problem:
Tunneling starts from a haulage shaft of
50 m depth and 18 m diameter
Start-up baseline for survey of only 11 m
length
Plumbing error of only 2 mm causes
large lateral errors
Feared result without measurements:
breakthrough disaster
Measurements:
Turning the traverse into right orientation
by only two GYROMAT campaigns
Reached result: successful breakthrough
with an accuracy of a few millimeters

Tunnel survey take place under difficult environmental conditions
Small errors have a great impact on the technical and economical success of
the project
