Guidelines on standard indication of Load Cases for calculation of Rating Life (l10) of TBM main bearings

Tunnel owners, consultants, and contractors require assurance of adequate Main Bearing L10 Life for Tunnel Boring Machines with rotary cutterheads. This document sets out a standardized method of indicating the Main Bearing Load Assumptions. It provides a common baseline to facilitate the comparison of load assumptions and therefore the resulting L10 bearing lives offered by various tunneling machine manufacturers.
