Airport Link | Northern Busway | EWAG GL - Supplementary Specification - Tunnel - Shotcrete Lining GLTSP102

General This technical specification has been provided by Parsons Brinckerhoff Arup Joint Venture on behalf of Thiess John Holland Joint Venture for use in execution of the Design and Construct Contract with the Airport Link, Northern Busway and ARU project (the Project). 1.1

Scope

This specification supersedes Shotcrete Lining (reference AGTSP100-0002). This Specification applies to the manufacture, supply and application of shotcrete for the temporary and permanent (pump sumps and substations) shotcrete lining of the Airport Link and Northern Busway tunnels. In addition, this document specifies the performance based requirements for shotcrete and details the testing requirements to ensure that the shotcrete applied on site is consistent with these performance requirements. For this Project, shotcrete is concrete with or without admixtures pneumatically applied to a prepared rock surface, in and around steel sets, or in and around lattice girders. The scope of this Specification comprises: •

steel or synthetic fibre reinforced shotcrete (SFRS),



steel mesh reinforced shotcrete



and plain or unreinforced shotcrete (URS)



plain shotcrete with polypropylene fibres to provide fire protection



aggregates for use in permanent shotcrete requiring fire resistance

The specification covers both temporary works shotcrete and permanent shotcrete. The specification complies with the Mined Tunnels Design Manual and will be reviewed and updated as necessary during execution of the Works. The types of shotcrete for underground works are as follows: •

SFRS applied as temporary (initial) and permanent (pump sumps and substations) ground support



URS applied as a smoothing layer prior to installation of the tunnel waterproofing membrane or providing an initial layer in combination with mesh reinforcement prior to application of permanent lining or as a finishing layer for permanent ground support (pump sumps and substations).

This Specification shall be read in conjunction with the Temporary and Permanent Works Design Drawings and other relevant Specifications. The thickness dimensions shown on the Drawings are minimum thicknesses. Shotcrete thicknesses shall be such as to provide a minimum cover, as shown on the Drawings, over all steel components and fixtures including rockbolt heads, steel sets, lattice girders and reinforcing mesh. The General Specification (reference BC-PBA-GLRSP000-SPC-0001) provides general information relating to all other specifications. The General Specification must be used with this Specification. Users of this Specification and related specifications and documents are required to ensure, that they are referring the current version. The durability of shotcrete manufactured in accordance with this specification has been assessed in the Durability Report (reference PBA-BC-AGDTR100-RPT-0001). This specification is to be read in conjunction with the related specifications outlined in Clause 1.3.

Definition of Terms

Definitions applicable to many specifications, including this Specification, shall include those found in the General Specification (reference BC-PBA-GLRSP000-SPC-0001). While the definitions found in the General Specification take precedence, the following definitions, when not found in the General Specification, apply particularly to this Specification: Table 1 – Definition of Terms Term

Definition

Relative Strength for Silica Fume

The relative strength for silica fume is the ratio (in percent) of the compressive strength of standard mortar bars, prepared with 90% cement plus 10% silica fume by mass, to the compressive strength of standard mortar bars made from cement only.

Admixtures

Materials added to base concrete such as accelerators and hydration control mixtures. (Note that silica fume, plasticisers and retarders may be included in Base Concrete if proposed to be used in the Temporary and Permanent Works shotcrete).

Cement

An active hydraulic binder formed by grinding clinker and conforming to AS 3972. Cement and cementitious content exclude the mass of silica fume.

Characteristic Cylinder strength at 28 days

The value of the standard cylinder strength at 28 days below which 5% of the population of all possible strength measurements are expected to fall. (Characteristic cylinder strengths are quoted in the Specification for the purpose of the development of mix design only).

Curing

The control of temperature and moisture in the concrete until the concrete has developed required properties.

Flash Coat

Sprayed concrete applied as a thin layer protecting, priming or finishing the surface of the tunnel. A flash coat shall be at least 20mm thick.

In Situ Cylinder Strength

The notional strength of shotcrete at a single location, considered as the strength of a cylinder of shotcrete as it exists in the structure. In situ cylinder strengths are given in the Specification for the purpose of compliance requirements.

Lattice Girder

A lightweight, three dimensional steel or fibreglass frame made to act as a unit by connecting all components with lacing bars; used in conjunction with shotcrete for shotcrete lining reinforcement.

Layer

A discrete thickness of sprayed concrete built up from a number of passes of the nozzle which is allowed to set.

Nozzle

Attachment at end of delivery hose from which shotcrete is projected.

Overspray

Material projected outside the intended receiving surface.

Rebound

Shotcrete which having passed through a spraying nozzle does not adhere to the surface to which shotcrete is being applied.

SFRS

Steel fibre reinforced shotcrete

Silica Fume Concrete

Concrete manufactured by combining cement complying with AS 3972 with silica fume. The Contractor shall ensure that sufficient lime is available for reaction with the silica fume, particularly when sulphate resistant cement or pulverised fuel-ash is used.

Sloughing

Subsidence of fresh shotcrete.

Shotcrete

A mixture of cement, aggregate, and water projected at high velocity from a
