Innovative Tunnel Engineering
Inventing and Implementing Technology in Design, Construction, and Contracting
Paperback Engels 2026 1e druk 9781032650302Samenvatting
This book aims to help professionals in public and private organisations to easily understand recent technological and practical developments in advanced tunnelling technologies by uniting technologies and geomechanics principles of “conventional tunnelling” (also known as the New Austrian Tunnelling Method (NATM)) with principles of “mechanised tunnelling” (tunnel boring machine (TBM)). It offers a cross-section of innovative, dynamic underground infrastructure developments, documenting strategies and case studies. The case studies cover all aspects of projects from technical procurement, including value engineering, feasibility, tendering and detailed design, to contracting and all stages of innovation implementation, to construction.
Features: A lifetime of experience in tunnelling all over the world, on every continent, under many geotechnical challenges A thorough analysis of every use case of tunnels, from flood diversion and transport infrastructure to advanced resilient mass transport systems Geological and hydrological analysis of soil and rock types commonly encountered in tunnelling Review of the full range of modern tunnelling techniques, such as the NATM, and latest technology in TBM, advanced tunnel lining concepts and risk-controlled contracting systems Alignment with regulatory and legal frameworks for successful projects until completion Endorsed by leading tunnelling experts and international organisations
The book guides readers through all types of innovative design and construction, including projects in transportation, road and railways, mass transit, hydro tunnels and caverns, and is aimed at young tunnelling engineers, as well as public and private practitioners, decision-makers and executives in the tunnelling industry.
