1. Tunnelling: design, stability and construction.

Author

Whittaker B.N., Frith R.C., Whittaker B.N., and Frith R.C.

Abstract

The book aims to present an overview of the achievements made in tunnelling practice, and to bring together in one volume, a detailed discussion and treatment of the main aspects associated with the design, stability and construction of tunnels. The book is divided into the following 19 chapters: Introduction to tunnelling - art and engineering; Geological aspects of tunnelling - investigation, evaluation and appreciation; Influence of geological conditions on design and construction of tunnels; Tunnelling methods - soft ground conditions; Tunnelling methods - rock conditions using drill and blast; Tunnelling methods - rock conditions using roadheader machine excavation; Tunnelling methods - rock conditions using tunnel boring machines; Adverse ground conditions - effect on tunnelling; Ground treatment in tunnelling; Hazards in tunnelling; Design and support of tunnels - operational criteria and principal support types; Support of tunnels - cast iron and steel supports; Support of tunnels - rock reinforcement; Support of tunnels - concrete and shotcrete linings; Support of tunnels - New Austrian Tunnelling method; Stresses and displacements associated with excavation of tunnels; Design of tunnels - soft ground; Design of tunnels - rock conditions; and Tunnelling - a perspective of progress, innovation and future trends., The book aims to present an overview of the achievements made in tunnelling practice, and to bring together in one volume, a detailed discussion and treatment of the main aspects associated with the design, stability and construction of tunnels.
