摘要

In Finland Posiva Oy (Company) is responsible for implementing the final disposal programme for spentnuclear fuel of its owners. Company is preparing for the geological disposal in Olkiluoto crystallinebedrock. Excavation will be executed using drill and blast method. Method unavoidably causes variableexcavation damaged zone (EDZ) on tunnel surfaces. The EDZ constitutes a risk for long term safety andtherefore good control methodology of the blasting technique is required. The thicker the EDZ, thegreater is the likelihood for detrimental transport pathways for ground water to transport radio nuclides,should those be present.Control of the EDZ consists of the optimization of the excavation procedures and EDZ characterization.Procedures, tunnel and excavation designs have been tested and evaluated in Olkiluoto, ONKALO RockCharacterization Facility. The EDZ and other requirements are taken into consideration in the controland procedures applied, and can be adjusted should significant deviations be observed. Local deviationsin the EDZ requirements don't endanger the disposal concept provided that the EDZ does not constitutea continuous fracture network. Deviating areas can be omitted in the disposal or the damage zone can beremoved mechanically.Maximum allowed EDZ extend is set according to the Finnish publication of the general qualityrequirements for excavation (Infra-RYL 2010). In 2008 Company started a development of a method fornon-destructive EDZ characterization and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) method based GPR EDZmethod was introduced 2010. The method is based on the frequency analysis of the high frequencycomponent of the GPR signal. Increase of the porosity, fracturing and water content changes theelectrical properties of the rock which are detected with the method. As a result, extend of the EDZ on ameasurement profile is defined. The method can be used for proving the conformity of the excavation interms of performance of the host rock as a natural barrier. The relation between the blasting design andextent of the EDZ has been proven in series of studies.The GPR EDZ method is applied shortly after the excavation and resulting report is generatedpractically in real time. The results can be used in excavation quality control, when the tunnel isofficially approved for the disposal. The method can be also used as an excavation quality guiding tool.In case of requirement exceeding allowed EDZ depth the used blasting design is inspected andcompared to the realization and corrective actions will be decided case-specific. Need for the designingrevision is evaluated. If failures in the procedures are detected these will be considered.
