Tunnel engineering is one of the oldest, most interesting but also challenging engineering disciplines and demands not only theoretical knowledge but also practical experience in geology, geomechanics, structural design, concrete construction, machine technology, construction process technology and construction management. The two-volume «Handbuch des Tunnel- und Stollenbaus» has been the standard reference work for German-speaking tunnellers in theory and practice for 30 years. The new English...
Das Buch stellt den neuesten Stand der Technik des maschinellen Schildvortriebes und die unterschiedlichen Maschinenarten vor und gibt Berechnungsansatze und Konstruktionshinweise. Weitere Kapitel befassen sich mit den Abbauwerkzeugen, den Fordereinrichtungen, der Tunnelsicherung, der Vermessung und Steuerung sowie der Arbeitssicherheit. Ferner wird ausfuhrlich auf die vertraglichen Aspekte und das Prozess-Controlling eingegangen.
