Proceedings of the North American Tunneling Conference 2004

This publication includes papers from the North American Tunneling 2004 conference, sponsored by the American Underground Construction Association. The theme of the conference is "Underground Construction - the Sensible Solution to Urban Problems" to reflect the increasing importance of locating urban facilities in the United States underground for enhanced security, to build critical infrastructure where it is needed and to improve the function of urban areas.

The papers are grouped in four major themes:

- Management of Underground Projects

- Public Policy and Underground Projects

- Advances in Technology

- Case Studies: Trials, Tribulation and Triumphs in Tunneling

This work should benefit everyone involved in any aspect of infrastructure, tunneling and underground construction.

North American Tunneling 2012 Proceedings

North American Tunneling is the premier forum to discuss new trends and developments in underground construction in North America. With every conference, the number of attendees and breadth of topics has grown. This collection of papers presented at the highly regarded 2012 North American Tunneling Conference records many of the tremendous advances that have been made in the delivery of more cost-effective and less disruptive solutions to the underground infrastructure needs of North America.

With more than 100 papers from engineers, contractors, owners, suppliers, manufacturers, and others in the industry, the proceedings documents the progress being made in the methods, practices, and technologies used in underground infrastructure. The authors share the latest case histories, expertise, lessons learned, and real-world applications from around the globe on a wide range of topics including

• Better geologic characterization methods for predicting TBM advance rates,
• Corrosion protection for sewer tunnels,
• Tunnel ventilation design,
• TBM modifi cations for the world’s second deepest civil works tunnel,
• Alternative project delivery approaches and risk allocation, and
• Structural designs for large highway tunnels.
Whether it is Panama’s first wastewater tunnel, TBMs for mine development in Montana, tunnel excavation assessment in Seattle, marine site investigation in Ireland, design of an underground line in Berlin, groundwater infiltration reduction in Atlanta, storm tunnel emergency rehabilitation in Minneapolis, or blasting parameters in Manhattan, you will learn about the latest projects and practices in this ever-changing industry.

Hi Moderator:
My suggestion is to rename this Thread to:
Proceedings of the North American Tunneling Conferences
so conference proceedings for different years could be uploaded in the same Thread.

Proceedings of the North American Tunneling Conference 2010
North American Tunneling 2010 underscores the important role that the tunneling industry plays worldwide in the development of underground space, transportation systems, conveyance systems, and other forms of sustainable infrastructure.

The proceedings describe the evolving nature of underground work, methods, and technology. This book documents the challenges faced and the lessons learned while advancing projects in support of a sustainable future. The contributions reflect the ability to adapt and excel in the environment of continual evolution that characterizes the tunneling industry today.

Taken from a collection of papers presented at the prestigious 2010 North American Tunneling Conference, the authors take you deep inside projects from around the world:
• Advancements in technology and sustainability, pressurized face tunneling and tunnel lining, and remediation
• Design considerations, including design validation, optimization and alignment, and strength and stability assessment
• Project planning, from estimating cost and project risk to delivering your project on time
• Case histories of small-diameter and conventional tunneling, and lessons learned while operating under difficult conditions

Whether it is building a subway extension under the streets or New York City or dealing with microtremors and rock bursts during construction, you will learn from the successes and failures of some of the most challenging construction projects undertaken in this rapidly evolving industry.
