In the Summerschool \"Rational Tunnelling\", an international group of select specialists addressed an audience from 14 nations with lectures intending to illuminate various aspects of tunnelling. The present volume contains the notes of these lectures. Aspects are: Some principles for the design of lining Constitutive models for numerical simulations Tunnel design in soft-ground-insights from monitoring and numerical modelling Ground reinforcing and steel pipe umbrella system in tunnelling Problems of TBMs in water bearing ground Estimating ground water inflow into hard rock tunnels - the problem of permeability Performance monitoring for tunnel design verification Instrumentation to assist with tunnel construction control Geophysical investigations: Integrated seismic imaging system for geological prediction during tunnel construction What tends to go wrong in tunnelling Application of design-build contracts to tunnel construction Cost and schedule management for major tunnel projects with reference to he Vereina tunnel and the Gotthard base tunnel Technical features for quality procedures in tunnelling Hard rock TBM advance rates Tunnel refurbishment Fire protection in tunnelling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dimitrios Kolymbas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3832503501\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783832503505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Logos Verlag Berlin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/14\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Dimitrios Kolymbas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450111766783,"sku":"9783832503505","price":61.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fbe022ed-07e1-4468-b704-4f0844de042a.jpg?v=1777266264","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rational-tunnelling-summerschool-innsbruck-2003-dimitrios-kolymbas-9783832503505","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
