The book provides a new, global, updated, thorough, clear and practical risk-based approach to tunnelling design and construction methods, and discusses detailed examples of solutions applied to relevant case histories. It is organized in three sequential and integrated volumes:






Volume 1: Concept – Basic Principles of Design



Volume 2: Construction – Methods, Equipment, Tools and Materials



Volume 3: Case Histories and Best Practices

The book covers all aspects of tunnelling, giving useful and practical information about design (Volume 1), construction (Volume 2) and best practices (Volume 3). It provides the following features and benefits:






updated vision on tunnelling design, tools, materials and construction



balanced mix of theory, technology and applied experience



different and harmonized points of view from academics, professionals and contractors



easy consultation in the form of a handbook



risk-oriented approach to tunnelling problems.

The tunnelling industry is amazingly widespread and increasingly important all over the world, particularly in developing countries. The possible audience of the book are engineers, geologists, designers, constructors, providers, contractors, public and private customers, and, in general, technicians involved in the tunnelling and underground works industry. It is also a suitable source of information for industry professionals, senior undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and academics.
