Handbook of Tunnel Engineering, Volume I: Structures and Methods
Book Description:
An understanding of geology, geomechanics, structural design, concrete construction, machine technology, construction process technology, and construction management are all necessary for success in tunnel engineering, one of the oldest, most intriguing, and toughest engineering fields. For thirty years, the two-volume “Handbuch des Tunnel- und Stollenbaus” has been the go-to resource for German-speaking tunnel engineers. The third German edition served as the basis for the new English edition, which has been altered and updated to reflect current research. The first volume focuses on the more hands-on aspects of construction, including the mechanics of drill-and-blast and automated tunneling. Ventilation and microtunnelling are also discussed. There are instances of actual use in every chapter.
