Slurry type Mud max method
Slurry type pipe jacking method
The slurry type mud max method is a large diameter slurry type pipe jacking method that can handle high water pressure and boulders. By using the SMC system (jacking monitor & thrust control system) together, the sharp curve and long-distance with a diameter of φ800 mm to φ3000 mm pipe jacking is now possible.
Characteristics of Slurry type Mud max method
Characteristic 1Sharp curve construction (minimum 15R) is possible.
Characteristic 2By using the SMC system together, long-distance pipe jacking of 500 m or more is possible.
Characteristic 3It supports a wide range of soil types, including ordinary soil, gravel layers, boulder layers, and soft rocks.
①The maximum gravel size is about 800 mm
②The content of gravel is about 60% (the uniaxial compressive strength of gravel is about 200MN /㎡).(The uniaxial compressive strength of rock is about 100MN /㎡)
Characteristic 4You can choose the type of the bit. (Standard bit, roller bit, cutter bit)
