Recommendations for Better Management of Major Underground Construction Projects. Executive Presentation
This report identifies procedures and practices in major underground construction projects and recommends improved procedures that will ensure more efficient and economic execution of these projects. It is the continuation of a previous study by the subcommittee on Contracting Practices of the U.S. National Committee on Tunneling Technology which noted that many of the problems encountered in the contracting and construction phases of underground projects result from actions taken in development, pre-design, and design phases. A hypothetical model of a major urban underground transportation construction project is described in detail. One of the most important causes of management is delayed decisive action. Thirty-nine most critical elements of a project are listed. Steps leading to completion and operation of the project are outlined. Recommended objectives and specific recommendations to support each objective are presented in the concluding section. The report is intended for use by government organizations, professional associations, and industry concerned with underground construction.
