This Practical Guide to Rock Tunneling fills an important void in
the literature for a practical guide to the design and construction
of tunnels in rock. Practical Guide to Rock Tunneling takes the
reader through all the critical steps of the design and
construction for rock tunnels starting from geotechnical site
investigations through to construction supervision. The guide
provides suggestions and recommendations for practitioners on
special topics of laboratory testing, durability of rock and
acceptance for unlined water conveyance tunnels, overstressing or
deep and long tunnels, risk-based evaluation of excavation methods,
contract strategies, and post-construction inspections. Key
considerations and lessons learned from selected case projects are
presented based on the author's extensive international experience
of over 30 years and 1000 km of tunneling for civil, hydropower,
and mining infrastructure, including some of the most recognized
projects in the world to date. Instead of revisiting all theory and
concepts that can be found in other sources, this book contains the
hard learned lessons from the author's experience in the field of
Rock Tunneling, gathered over 30 years of service.
