WHAT IS TUNNEL?
It is an underground or underwater passageway, dug through the surrounding soil/earth/rock
A tunnel may be for foot or vehicular road traffic, for rail traffic, or for a canal.
Secret tunnels are built for military purposes.
Special tunnels, such as wildlife crossings, are built to allow wildlife to cross human-made barriers safely.

REASONS TO BUILD A TUNNEL
When the lane encounters an obstacle such as a mountain to avoid bypassing the obstacle
Built sometimes to overcome a water obstacle as a replacement for building a bridge above it.
Built to connect between military posts so the movement between them will not be visible for the enemy
Sometimes built for infrastructure like electricity cables, water, communication and sewerage to avoid damage and disruption above ground

HISTORY
the first tunneling was done by prehistoric people seeking to enlarge their caves.
First tunnel in Babylonia was a brick-lined pedestrian passage some 3,000 feet (900 meters) long was built about 2180 to 2160 B.C. under the Euphrates River to connect the royal palace with the temple
the largest tunnel in ancient times was a 4,800-foot-long, 25-foot-wide, 30-foot-high road tunnel (the Pausilippo) between Naples and Pozzuoli, executed in 36 B.C.

In 1681 gunpowder was first used for blasting the tunnels
First time the ventilation system for tunnel was developed in 1927 in Holland tunnel
In 1952 James.S.Robbins comes up with a good idea and designs the modern tunnel-boring machine
In 1988 Japan's 33-mile-long Seikan Tunnel, the world's longest and deepest railway tunnel (787 feet below sea level), connects the islands of Honshu and Hokkaido
In 1994 after 192 years of planning and six years of building, the Channel Tunnel runs under the English Channel

TUNNELING METHODS
depends on ground conditions, the ground water conditions, the length and diameter of the tunnel drive, the depth of the tunnel, the logistics of supporting the tunnel excavation, the final use and shape of the tunnel and appropriate risk.

2. DRILL AND BLAST
3. BORED TUNNELING Done by Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM)
It is often used for excavating long tunnels
![Page 9: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
4. SEQUENTIAL EXCAVATION METHOD Also known as the New Austrian Tunneling
Method (NATM). The excavation location of a proposed tunnel is
divided into segments first. The segments are then mined sequentially
with supports

PARTS OF TUNNELS
![Page 11: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
TUNNEL LININGS
These are the permanent or temporary support for keeping tunnel from collapse and provide safe.
Tunnel linings are grouped into three main forms some or all of which may be used in the construction of a tunnel:
1. Temporary ground support
2. Primary lining
3. Secondary lining
![Page 12: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS Water Constructability Tunnel usage
COMMON TYPES OF LINING USED IN TUNNELS
1. Natural support in rock
When the tunnel is being bored through good quality rock
![Page 13: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
2. ROCK REINFORCEMENT Steel bolts are frequently set in holes drilled
into the rock to assist in supporting the entire roof or individual rock slabs that tend to fall into a tunnel
![Page 14: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3. SHOTCRETE
Pneumatically applied mortar and concrete are increasingly being used for the support of underground excavations
![Page 15: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
4. WIRE MESH
Wire mesh is used to support small pieces of loose rock or as reinforcement for shotcrete.
Two types of wire mesh are commonly used in underground excavations:
1. Chain-link mesh:- commonly used for fencing
2. Weld mesh:- commonly used for reinforcing shotcrete
![Page 16: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
5. IN SITU CONCRETING
The process of placing concrete in situ was incompatible with timber supports.
The first uses of concrete were for tunnels in good rock and it was only with the introduction of steel supports that concrete became the norm for a tunnel lining material.
In-situ forms used for lining tunnels are, with few exceptions, of the travelling type, constructed of steel.

VENTILATION IN TUNNELSVentilation is required because of : 1) Dust and gas caused by drilling,
blasting, loading of excavated materials and Shotcreting
2) Exhaust gas and smoke discharged by diesel
3) Poison gas made from explosive or organic solvent
4) Poison gas, flammable gas or oxygen shortage gas in ground
5) High temperature and high humidity
![Page 19: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
VENTILATION DURING CONSTRUCTION
During construction it is necessary to ventilate a tunnel for various reasons:
To furnish fresh air for the workers To remove the dust caused by drilling,
blasting, mucking, diesel engines, and other operations
To remove obnoxious gases and fumes produced by explosives
![Page 20: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SEISMIC DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Underground structures constitute crucial components of the transportation networks
Underground structures are constrained by the surrounding medium
Compared to surface structures, which are generally unsupported above their foundations, the underground structures can be considered to display significantly greater degrees of redundancy thanks to the support from the ground6
![Page 21: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
SEISMIC DESIGN V\S CONVENTIONAL DESIGN
Seismic loads cannot be calculated accurately. Seismic loads are derived with a high degree of
uncertainty, unlike dead loads, live loads, or other effects such as temperature changes.
Any specified seismic effect has a risk associated with it.
Seismic motions are transient and reversing (i.e., cyclic). The frequency or rate of these cyclic actions is generally very high, ranging from less than one Hz to greater than ten Hz.
Seismic loads are superimposed on other permanent or frequently occurring loads.
![Page 22: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
GENERAL EFFECTS OF EARTHQUAKE
1. Ground shaking Ground shaking refers to the vibration of the
ground produced by seismic waves propagating through the earth’s crust
It composed of two different types of seismic waves
1. Body waves travel within the earth’s material. They may be either longitudinal P waves or transverse shear S waves and they can travel in any direction in the ground.
2. Surface waves travel along the earth’s surface. They may be either Rayleigh waves or Love waves.
![Page 23: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
GROUND FAILURE Ground failure broadly includes various
types of ground instability Such as faulting, landslides, liquefaction,
and tectonic uplift and subsidence. Each of these hazards maybe potentially
catastrophic to tunnel structures, although the damages are usually localized.
Design of a tunnel structure against ground instability problems is often possible, although the cost may be high.

TYPES OF DEFORMATIONS.
1. AXIAL AND CURVATURE DEFORMATIONS

CASE STUDY
The Gotthard Base Tunnel is a railway tunnel in the heart of the Swiss Alps
route length-57 km total of 151.84 km of tunnels world's longest rail tunnel. Detailed preliminary investigation took place in
1986. It came to know that there are total of 90
geologic problem zones at site. most difficult zone for the tunnellers on the Piora
Basin stretch - a funnel-shaped formation filled with sugar grained dolomite and water
![Page 28: Study of tunnel engineering](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062216/55c6eb82bb61ebf8298b47f7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
A thick jet of water mixed with dolomite shot out of the mountain and flooded the road.
A series of 19 inclined drills were made finally giving the engineers the all
clear. They hit on hard rock with no water pressure.

geology is very important while designing a tunnel. The method adopted for tunneling is based on the type of rock and geological conditions. tunnels are safer to the earthquake from the other on ground structures.necessary to consider the seismic design of tunnel, ventilation of tunnel is very important in tunnel during the construction and after the construction,
