Developing underground infrastructure for transportation, conveyance of water and wastewater, utility services and for commercial/mixed use purposes has become indispensable for Asia.

All urban centers of Asia have already installed extensive plans for underground infrastructure to cope with the shrinking and high value surface area. But tunnelling is one of the most complex and risky engineering activity.

The 3rd annual Tunnel Design & Construction Asia is a platform for tunnelling industry stakeholders to discuss and share best practices in constructing efficient and sustainable tunnel infrastructure.

“We are continuously strengthening the physical infrastructure in our country. This is an area which requires very large investments. In the 12th Plan, we will further accelerate investment in infrastructure. Connecting remote and rural areas by rail and road will get the top most priority.” - Dr. Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister, Govt. of India

Tunnel Design & Construction Asia 2012 will examine:

  • Master plans and upcoming projects for road/rail, water/wastewater and utility tunnel infrastructure
  • Funding, legal and contractual requirements
  • Best practices in geotechnical investigations and instrumentation
  • Urban tunnelling techniques
  • Optimal selection of construction procedures in NATM and Mountain tunnelling
  • TBM selection procedures for different soil/rock conditions
  • Handling technical and construction contract risks
  • Fire safety and ventilation design for long and immersed tunnels

 What Others Have To Say

The Tunnel Design & Construction conference was useful to gain insight into various aspects of tunnelling and was relevant for our metro rail project. Interesting, informative & thought provoking sessions. Well organised conference, significant as a number of case studies were presented - V. Somasundaram, Chief General Manager, Chennai Metro Rail Corporation
“A good opportunity to share experiences and updating with the ongoing developments in the field of underground construction through this well organised event. I liked the quality of the presentations and good combination of theory and case studies of all related fields in tunnelling”. - Vijendra Kumar Nagyan, Head – Hydro Projects Implementation, Larsen & Toubro Power Developments
