Description

Tunnelling: Management by Design by CRC Press addresses the growing fragmentation in the tunnelling industry. Modern projects often suffer from confrontational contractual bases driven by legal notions, which prevents the pooling of essential skills needed to meet promoter objectives. This book offers a way to reverse this trend through a structured approach to management. The text provides a historical overview of key developments before moving into a detailed definition of the design concept. It connects design directly to systems and risk management, which are the core themes of the work. By understanding these relationships, professionals can better navigate the complexities of large-scale underground construction. To provide real-world context, the book includes a study of the 1994 railway tunnel failures at Heathrow Airport. This case study serves as a clear example of the expensive consequences that arise from design failures. This resource is a practical guide for those looking to improve project outcomes and move away from fragmented, legalistic management styles toward more integrated, design-led processes.
