Assessment of the impact on existing cast-iron and precast concrete tunnel linings (in total approximately 300 assets.) including empirical and finite element calculations.
Conceptual, preliminary, detailed design of underground caverns, egress tunnels and mined shafts; scheduling and cost estimating; risk management; specifications and tender. Onsite support during construction.
Initial, detailed inspection of underground structures. Condition assessed and rated according to the 'Highway and Rail Transit Tunnel Inspection Manual (2005)' of the U.S. Department of Transportation - FHWA.
Review of the current design of the connection between sprayed concrete lined connection tunnels and the main (TBM) tunnel with the aim to propose efficient alternatives.
