Underground
Construction
In the construction
of underground spaces, such as tunnels, underground stations and parking
garages, the geotechnical properties of the soil, the ground water and
the workability of the soil are boundary conditions for the design and
for the choice of construction methods.
Until recently no
bored tunnels were driven in The Netherlands. In the early nineties this
changed with the construction of the second Heinenoord tunnel under the
river Meuse. GeoConsult made the geotechnical models in the pre-design
stage for this tunnel.
