In partnership with the Institution of Civil Engineers Research an Development fund, The British Tunnelling Society (BTS) considered that the valuable knowledge and experience of its members on tunnel lining design should be made available to the wider international underground construction industry." "Tunnel lining design guide is primarily intended to provide those determining specifications of tunnel linings with a guide to the recommended rules and practices to apply in their design. In addition, it provides practitioners who procure, operate, or maintain tunnels, along with those seeking to acquire data for use in their design, with details of the factors that influence correct design, such as end use, construction practice and environmental influences."--BOOK JACKET Of geotechnical and geophysical -- pr) operies 160 -- 10.3 4 Design of tunnel linings 1 61 -- 10.4 Instrumentation of the CTRL North Downs Tunnel 164 -- 10.5 References 165 -- Appendix I Abbreviations and symbols 166 -- Appendix 2 Risk management 168 -- A2l Introduction 168 -- A2.2 Scope 168 -- A23 Risk register 169 -- A21. 1 When to use the risk register 169 -- A2.32 Whalt is it? 169 -- A2.3.3 Assessment process 169 -- A2.3.4 Key steps 169 -- A2.3.5 Risk assessment, qualitative or -- quantitative? 171 -- A2.3.6 R anaingt risk 175 -- A2.4 References 17 A guide to the recommended standards and rules applicable to formulation for bored tunnels, and shafts in various types of ground conditions.
