* 1 Introduction. * 2 Geotechnical Considerations—Rock. * 3 Soft Ground (Soil) * 4 Soft Ground Tunneling. * 5 Tunneling In Rock. * IQY Technical College PRACTICAL TUNNEL CONSTRUCTION - Wiley Online Library
: Crucial "non-excavation" topics like ventilation , water handling , and mucking/haulage are treated as primary concerns rather than afterthoughts. Critical Observations
: Unlike many texts that focus solely on machines, this book emphasizes how geological mediums—both rock and soil—dictate every other decision in a project, including method selection, productivity, and required ground support.
: The text explicitly differentiates between active support (intended to immediately stabilize the rock mass) and passive support (designed to react to ground movement), providing practical context for modern ground control.
This detailed review covers (published by Wiley Online Library ). Overview
: The book is designed for field use. It prioritizes safety, risk management, and ethical engineering practices over dense mathematical derivations. Verdict
