Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) constructed tunnels are widespread, and
can deliver significant environmental and cost benefits. However,
as noted in the noteworthy examples of TBM traffic tunnels
presented in this book, there are still important challenges
associated with them, linked in particular to structural safety in
the event of earthquakes, as well as cost and safety issues during
operation. To face these challenges, Innovation in TBM Traffic
Tunnels presents three innovative concepts in the field of
construction of TBM rail and road tunnels: the TISB concept that
improves the structural safety of those built on soft soil in
seismic areas, and the TMG and TMF concepts, for rail and road
tunnels, respectively, that allow for significant reduction of
their cost and the improvement of safety during operation. Examples
of the application of these new concepts in the conceptual design
of specific tunnel cases are presented and compared with solutions
based on common approaches, demonstrating the additional benefits
of these concepts. The book also draws attention to other
innovations in TBM tunnelling that may improve the construction of
tunnels in the future, especially when using the concepts mentioned
above. Innovation in TBM Traffic Tunnels is aimed at professionals
involved in the planning, design, and construction of tunnels for
transport infrastructure, including authorities, consultants and
construction companies, worldwide.
