Tunnelling and tunnel mechanics : a rational approach to tunnelling
The book covers not only practical aspects but also the underlying theoretical approaches. It also covers the fundamentals of rock mechanics. It addresses not only students but also professionals who are interested to understand the underlying principles and methods and - possibly - to further develop them. Emphasis is given to the mechanical approach rather than to hardly tractable empirical statements. The text is concise and as far as possible complete and comprises a large list of citations. Publications of the English and German speaking scientific communities have been taken into account. TOC:Introduction.- Installations within Tunnels.- Investigation and description of the ground.- Heading.- . Support.- Grouting and freezing.- Management of groundwater.- Applications of compressed air.- Subaqueous tunnels.- Shafts.- Pressure tunnels.- Safety during construction .- Behavior of soft and hard rock.- Stress field around a circular tunnel.- Design of anchors.- Some approximate solutions for shallow tunnels.- Stability of the excavation face.- Settlement of the surface.- Stability problems in tunneling.- Monitoring. - Numerical analysis of tunnels
