Proposed design of the english channel tunnel
163A
Tunnels Se'e also ~'4113, ~7~11,?,,?'416,~'. 874187 874272 Soil mmements induced by tunnelling and their effects on pipelines and structures Attewell, P B: Yeats, J: Selby, A R
Glasgow Blackie. 19,~'6. 325P This textbook is aimed at the design engineer rather than at the academic. There is little direct presentation of soil mechanics theory, although adequate references are given. The first part is concerned with the evaluation of ground movement for clay and granular soils, and includes calculation of volume loss, ground deformation and induced strains, design methods, time dependent beha~iour, numerical methods, and measurements. Subsequent sections consider ground movements and buried pipelines, and structural response to tunnelling settlement. 874273 Design of concrete tunnel liners and pipes by ring compression theory Lure, W
Tunnlg Technol :Vewsl N56, Dec 1986. PI-IO A ring compression theory developed to show that the strength of a tunnel liner depends on how it is restrained from deflecting by interacting with the surrounding earth is examined, The formulas presented are based on simple approximations for estimating deflection and strength of the compression block at the spring line. This theory may also be applied to the design of concrete pipes, when proper construction techniques are used to control lateral deflection. 874274 Study' of squeezing pressure phenomenon in a tunnel - I Dube, A K: Singh, B: Singh. B
Tunnlg UndA,r Space Tech Il. ,\1. 1986. P35-39 Squeezing pressures are quite common in younger rocks of the lower Himalayas. Predicting rock pressure for the design of tunnel support is a problem. The development of a criterion for predicting rock pressures under squeezing ground conditions is examined. A tunnel driven in Himacbal Pradesh is used for the studv. The rock pressure is very much influenced by the broken zone around the tunnel periphery. A graphical representation procedure is suggested for estimating the radius of the broken zone. 874275 Study of squeezing pressure phenomenon in a tunnel - II Dube, A K: Singh. B: Singh, B
Tunnlg Undgr Space Tech [1. N1, 1986. P41-48 This attempts to verify under actual field conditions the theoretical criteria developed previously. The efficiency of the proposed graphical procedure is demonstrated by the analysis of the field data. The analytical method for estimating squeezing pressure was found to be a good tool for study of squeezing pressure phenomena. This suggests that the displacements have a great bearing on the rock pressure, and a flexible support system may' be an appropriate remedy. This hypothesis was further demonstrated bv support behaviour in the Gift Tunnel. Auth.
874276 Geological and geotechnical studies for the Gibraltar tunnel Villanrueva, A: Serrano. J .NI
Tunnlg Undgr Space Tech ~'1, .V3 4, 19~¢6. P23--24l The building of a subsurface tunnel under the seabed is one of the options being most seriously considered to link the Straits of Gibraltar. The geological and geotechnical program begun several years ago by Spain and Morocco is running to plan. The basic criteria used in drawing up these schedules of studies are described and a report on the state of the research being carried out is given. 874277 French experience in the field of submarine tunnelling Bejui, H: Avril, T
Tunnlg Undgr Space Tech t'l, N34, 1986, P251-260 A review of French projects in the field or" submarine tunnelling. A brief historical account of the Channel Tunnel Project is followed by a description of recent proposals for its realization. The excavation of undersea galleries and shafts of the Palvel and Flamarville nuclear plant are described. 874278 The Channel Expressway: twin-bored road tunnels under the English Channel Comolli, R: Cuaz, F: Ferro, V; Pigorini, B
Tunnlg Undgr Space Tech V1. ,\'3'4. 1986. P261-269 The proposal for a fixed link between France and England by means of a submarine tunnel under the English Channel is examined in its various aspects of layout, tunnelling, ventilation, safety and operational criteria. 874279 Proposed design of the English Channel Tunnel Kirkland, C J
Tunnlg Undgr Space Tech I'1, N3/4, 1986, P271-282 An overview of the history of the development of a fixed link across the English Channel is presented and includes reasons why the project is now going forward. An analysis of projected traffic volumes and revenues from the Channel Tunnel, as well as a description of the tunnel scheme proposed by the Channel Tunnel Group/France Manche (the English French partnership commissioned to design and execute the project). Engineering concepts and design, contractual arrangements, and financing issues are also discussed at some length. 874280 Construction and design of 'Island Line' rock tunnels for the Hong Kong Mass Transit Railway Caiden, D; Haines, P; Turner, V D In: Rock Engineering and Excavation in an Urban Environment (papers to the Conference, Hong Kong, 24-27 February 1986) P49-64. Publ London: [MM. ]986 A specific contract on the Island Line is described, which serves to illustrate the problems arising from mixed ground conditions and the necessity to minimise environmental disruption in a cramped urban site. Conditions vary from intact Hong Kong Granite to completely weathered granite (CWG), a granular soil of low cohesion. Water table is close to the ground level. Techniques used vary from bIasting to compressed air drives using shields and other hand construction methods. Details of primary support are provided.
