  • Description: Brief and readable, this reference is based on a combined 75 years of field experience and places emphasis on simple practical rules for designing and planning underground infrastructures. The book begins with a clear and rigorous exposition of the classification of underground space, important considerations such as geological, engineering and underground planning. This is followed by self-contained chapters concerning applications for underground water storage, underground car parks, underground metros and road tunnels and underground storage of crude oil, lpg and natural gas. There are about 135 figures and tables and 20 case histories/examples. This book deals with major topics such as hydroelectric projects with modern planning of complex underground structures; underground storages of food items, crude oil and explosives; and highly cautious underground nuclear waste repositories. Rail and road tunnels and TBM are described briefly. Civil engineers, mining engineers, and geotechnical engineers will find this book a valuable guide to designing and planning underground infrastructures both in terms of its applications.
