This book highlights recent advancements and innovations in trenchless technology via the adoption of combined micro-tunnelling and pipe-jacking techniques. This technique is more environmentally friendly, cost effective, less time-consuming and less disruptive compared to conventional open trench excavations for urban construction and urban infrastructure renewal projects. Pipe jacking is a non-destructive technique used in the installation of underground pipelines using a tunnel boring machine (TBM) and thrust forces derived from the hydraulic jack set-up in a deep jacking shaft. It is popular and commonly used worldwide for the installation of sewer and common services cable tunnels as well as for oil and gas pipelines.
This book presents the proceedings of the ASEAN-Australian Engineering Congress (AAEC2022), held as a virtual event, 13–15 July 2022 with the theme “Engineering Solutions in the Age of Digital Disruption”.

This book gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of computational geomechanics, as presented by international researchers and engineers at the 16th International Conference of the International Association for Computer Methods and Advances in Geomechanics (IACMAG 2020/21). Contributions include a wide range of topics in geomechanics such as: monitoring and remote sensing, multiphase modelling, reliability and risk analysis, surface structures, deep structures, dams and earth structures, coastal engineering, mining engineering, earthquake and dynamics, soil-atmosphere interaction, ice mechanics, landfills and waste disposal, gas and petroleum engineering, geothermal energy, offshore technology, energy geostructures, geomechanical numerical models and computational rail geotechnics.
With construction techniques becoming ever more complex, and population pressure leading to the development of increasingly problematic sites, expertise in the area of soil structure interaction is crucial to architectural and construction industries worldwide. This book contains the proceedings of the ISSMGE Technical Committee 207 International Conference on Geotechnical Engineering - Soil Structure Interaction and Retaining Walls - held in St Petersburg, Russia, in June 2014. The conference was dedicated to the memory of the outstanding geotechnical expert Gregory Porphyryevich Tschebotarioff. Topics covered at the conference included: soil structure interaction, underground structures and retaining walls, site investigation as a source of input parameters for soil structure interaction, and interaction between structures and frozen soils. The papers included here are the English language papers. Papers presented by the authors in Russian are published by the Georeconstruction Institute of St. Petersburg.
Die Beiträge zum Themenschwerpunkt "Tunnelbau" in Band 1 umfassen eine breite Palette von Themen, die von technischen Verfahren bis hin zu digitalen Technologien und Nachhaltigkeitsaspekten reichen. Im Bereich der Bauverfahren wird sowohl der konventionelle Tunnelbau bei geringer Überdeckung als auch der maschinelle Tunnelvortrieb mit seinen Verfahrenstechniken, Planungsgrundlagen und spezifischen Herausforderungen thematisiert. Anschließend werden Tübbing-Fertigteile, Injektionen im Tunnelbau sowie die Besonderheiten unterirdischer gleisgebundener Verknüpfungsstellen in drei Einzelbeiträgen behandelt. Die Digitalisierung spielt eine zunehmend wichtige Rolle im Tunnelbau, was durch Bei...
