Produktbeschreibung

Tunnel Facts explores the fascinating world of underground infrastructure, revealing the technology and architectural achievements behind tunnels vital to modern society. The book illuminates how tunnels overcome geographical barriers, enabling efficient transportation and utility networks, especially as urbanization increases.

Did you know that modern tunnel engineering builds upon centuries of experience, adapting to meet growing societal and environmental demands? Or that geological surveying, soil mechanics, and structural engineering principles are basic concepts for understanding tunnel construction?

The book progresses logically, starting with fundamental tunneling concepts like the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM) and Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs). It then showcases case studies of iconic tunnels such as the Channel Tunnel and Gotthard Base Tunnel, highlighting engineering challenges and breakthroughs.

Finally, it discusses emerging trends like automation and sustainable construction. A unique aspect is its emphasis on balancing technological innovation with environmental sustainability, presenting a balanced view of the benefits and risks of large-scale tunnel projects.

Tunnel Facts argues that tunnel engineering represents a critical intersection of technological innovation, environmental awareness, and societal need.
