North American Tunneling 2010 Proceedings
"Taken from a collection of papers presented at the prestigious 2010 North American Tunneling Conference"--p. [4] of cover.
The American Highway
Minnesota-based writer and photographer Kazynski traces the transformation of the US from a network of places connected by rutted wagon trails to a maze of highways connected to other highways. He describes and illustrates road and bridge construction and the new roadside culture that threw up motels, restaurants, gas stations, and scenic perspectives.
Mapping Voids, Debonding, Delaminations, Moisture, and Other Defects Behind or Within Tunnel Linings
This report from the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2), which is administered by the Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, identifies techniques that provide useful information for evaluating tunnel linings.

North American Tunneling: 2014 Proceedings
The North American Tunneling Conference is the premier forum to discuss new trends and developments in underground construction in North America. With every conference, the number of attendees and breadth of topics grows. North American Tunneling: 2014 Proceedings reflects the theme for the 2014 conference, “Mission Possible.” The authors share new theories, novel innovations, and the latest tools that make what once may have been perceived as impossible, now possible. The authors of 128 papers share the latest case histories, expertise, lessons learned, and real-world applications from around the globe on a wide range of topics. They cover the successes and failures of challenging construction projects. Read about challenging design issues, fresh approaches on performance, future projects, and industry trends as well as ground movement and support, structure analysis, risk and cost management, rock tunnels, caverns and shafts, TBM technology and selection, and water and wastewater conveyance.
A Field Study of Spiling Reinforcement in Underground Openings
From measurements and observations of the physical model behavior in conjunction with calibrated numerical model results, the mechanisms by which prereinforcement displays its effectiveness was implied, but not verified. Further investigations were required to examine and substantiate the mechanisms by which prereinforcement and, in particular, spiling reinforcement work. A field instrumentation program was designed to monitor the spiling under actual tunneling conditions. This report describes the results of two such investigations. The first was carried out at the Burlington Northern Railroad pilot tunnel and main bore near North Bonneville, Washington, and the second at the Eisenhower Mem...
Tunnel Engineering Handbook
The Tunnel Engineering Handbook, Second Edition provides, in a single convenient volume, comprehensive coverage of the state of the art in the design, construction, and rehabilitation of tunnels. It brings together essential information on all the principal classifications of tunnels, including soft ground, hard rock, immersed tube and cut-and-cover, with comparisons of their relative advantages and suitability. The broad coverage found in the Tunnel Engineering Handbook enables engineers to address such critical questions as how tunnels are planned and laid out, how the design of tunnels depends on site and ground conditions, and which types of tunnels and construction methods are best suit...
