Tunnel Cost Model: Executive Summary
The Tunnel Cost Model is a simulation model of tunnel construction which addresses problems of cost estimating and project scheduling under conditions of risk or uncertainty. The model develops the concept of underground construction as a production process, and to this concept applies procedures drawn from current estimating practices of contractors, owners, and designers. Its main advantages are its flexibility in adapting to diverse needs among users and to various types of underground projects; its ability to match speed with a very high level of detail and accuracy; and its explicit treatment of many major sources of uncertainty in project planning, analysis and control. Any underground structure or complex of structures may be considered, ranging from shafts, tunnels, or adits to networks or systems of tunnels to large underground caverns. This report presents a technical description of the capabilities of the Tunnel Cost Model.
