Abstract

Professional TBM Operator is in short supply worldwide, and insufficient construction experience of new personnel using TBM can lead to a decline in response capabilities when various construction risks occur. The fact that the TBM construction quality greatly depends on the skill and experience of the TBM operator, and the decrease in productivity due to insufficient skilled manpower, and the decrease in safety due to the decrease in skill level are frequently discussed problems in the TBM industry. To this end, several overseas companies and organizations have developed simulators, and a simulator is being developed in Korea. The International Tunneling Association is planning a comprehensive training, including classroom training, e-learning, simulator training and field training. Given the progress at home and abroad, TBM driver training and formal recognition of training through certification or licensing is expected to become the norm in the near future.

TBM의 운전 전문인력은 세계적으로 부족한 상황이며 신규 인력의 시공경험 부족은 각종 시공리스크 발생 시 대응능력 저하를 가져올 수 있다. TBM 시공품질이 TBM 운전자의 숙련도와 경험에 크게 좌우되는 점과 숙련인력 부족에 의한 생산성 저하, 숙련도 저하에 의한 안전성 저하는 TBM산업에서의 자주 거론되는 문제점이다. 이를 위해 국외의 몇 개 업체와 기관에서 시뮬레이터를 개발하였고 국내에서도 시뮬레이터 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 국제터널협회에서는 강의실 교육, e-learning, 시뮬레이터 교육 및 현장실습을 포함하는 포괄적인 교육을 계획하고 있다. 국내외 진행상황으로 볼 때, TBM 운전자 교육 및 인증 또는 라이센스를 통한 공식적인 교육 인정은 멀지 않은 미래에 표준이 될 것으로 예상된다.
