Other regional economies too have ambitious underground utilisation plans for water/wastewater, road and sea crossing tunnels. More than ever, hundreds of TBMs are crisscrossing our subsurface. The tunnelling industry has never been as excited as it is now!
As ITA states in its recent report, this trend of increased underground utilisation is likely to grow in decades to come and the tunnel structures will go deeper and longer.
Availability of skills, selecting ideal construction techniques/materials and provision of improved safety and ventilation features are proving to be the challenges for optimal utilisation of subsurface infrastructure.
How to Address these Challenges?
Search of best practices for design and construction need not be a process of reinventing the wheel.
Make use of the multiple learning and networking opportunities at IQPC’s Tunnel Design & Construction Northeast Asia.
