Urban Tunnelling in Soft Ground• Most cases of soft ground tunnelling are
in urban environment• Main concern during excavation is the
stability of the opening• Tunnelling-induced displacement field
may reach surface and affect existing nearby structures
• Design may be dominated by admissible-displacement criteria

11Major concerns of urban tunnelling in soft ground and are related to (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004):
• Urban Environment
• Ground Conditions
• Risk Scenarios
![Page 14: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
UrbanEnvironment
• Constraints for alignment• Shallow overburden• Existence of nearby structures• Foreign objects inside the ground• Restrictions for auxiliary works• Complex geometry
![Page 15: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Constraintsfor Alignment
• Usually dominated by the tunnel demand• Influenced by urban constraints (p.ex.
location of ventilation towers) • Preferable under public ground• Unavoidable to underpass existing structures• Cope with existing ground conditions
![Page 16: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Shallow Overburden
• Access ways as shallow as possible• Larger and larger tunnel diameters
• Concept of Shallow Tunnel– Type of Failure– Displacement field up to surface or
existing structures
![Page 17: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
ShallowOverburden �Failure Mode
![Page 18: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Existence of Nearby Structures
• Types of structures (transport ways, public utilities, buildings, historical sites etc.)
• Nearby structures are affected by the induced displacement field, but they also affect the displacement field � Interaction
• Sensitivity to potential damages
![Page 19: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Foreign Objects inside the Ground
• Direct conflict with tunnel alignment–Structural elements (foundation,
anchors, sheet piles)–Public utilities–Wells–Tree trunks and roots
![Page 21: Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges 2011-2012... · Urban Tunnelling: Constraints and Challenges ... (Kovari & Ramoni, 2004): ... Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051320/5aa546477f8b9a1d728ce71d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Checking for Tunnelling-Induced Damages
• Calculate the green field settlement trough• For structures inside the settlement trough,
check potential damages due to green field settlements and distortions
• For those in critical state, run a more accurate analysis taking into account the structure stiffness
• Perform reinforcement when required

Construction
• Faithful to the design � changes in agreement
• Quality control (materials and services)
• Integrated risk and construction management � contingency and emergency actions

Role of Contracts
• Keep fair balance– quality, schedule and costs
• Mix of technical and performance specifications � quality control
• Independent auditing and full disclosure of control parameters
• Incorporate risk management and risk sharing

11• Urban tunnelling is a great and
increasing demand worldwide
• Urban tunnelling is challenging due to urban environment and its constraints
• Urban tunnelling is likely dominated by limit admissible damage criteria
• Risk management has to be incorporated in all project phases
