Tunnel Wikipedia. A tunnel is an underground passageway, dug through the surrounding soilearthrock and enclosed except for entrance and exit, commonly at each end. A pipeline is not a tunnel, though some recent tunnels have used immersed tube construction techniques rather than traditional tunnel boring methods. A tunnel may be for foot or vehicular road traffic, for rail traffic, or for a canal. The central portions of a rapid transit network are usually in tunnel. Some tunnels are aqueducts to supply water for consumption or for hydroelectric stations or are sewers. Utility tunnels are used for routing steam, chilled water, electrical power or telecommunication cables, as well as connecting buildings for convenient passage of people and equipment. Secret tunnels are built for military purposes, or by civilians for smuggling of weapons, contraband, or people. Special tunnels, such as wildlife crossings, are built to allow wildlife to cross human made barriers safely. TerminologyeditA tunnel is relatively long and narrow the length is often much greater than twice the diameter, although similar shorter excavations can be constructed, such as cross passages between tunnels. The definition of what constitutes a tunnel can vary widely from source to source. For example, the definition of a road tunnel in the United Kingdom is defined as a subsurface highway structure enclosed for a length of 1. In the United States, the NFPA definition of a tunnel is An underground structure with a design length greater than 2. In the UK, a pedestrian, cycle or animal tunnel beneath a road or railway is called a subway, while an underground railway system is differently named in different cities, the Underground or the Tube in London, the Subway in Glasgow, and the Metro in Newcastle. The place where a road, railway, canal or watercourse passes under a footpath, cycleway, or another road or railway is most commonly called a bridge or, if passing under a canal, an aqueduct. Where it is important to stress that it is passing underneath, it may be called an underpass, though the official term when passing under a railway is an underbridge. A longer underpass containing a road, canal or railway is normally called a tunnel, whether or not it passes under another item of infrastructure. An underpass of any length under a river is also usually called a tunnel, whatever mode of transport it is for. In the US, the term subway means an underground rapid transit system, and the term pedestrian underpass is used for a passage beneath a barrier. Rail station platforms may be connected by pedestrian tunnels or footbridges. HistoryeditThis section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. March 2. Much of the early technology of tunneling evolved from mining and military engineering. The etymology of the terms mining for mineral extraction or for siege attacks, military engineering, and civil engineering reveals these deep historic connections. Antique and early middle ageseditPredecessors of modern tunnels were adits to transport water for irrigation or drinking, and sewerage. The first Qanats are known from before 2. B. C. Geotechnical investigation and designeditA major tunnel project must start with a comprehensive investigation of ground conditions by collecting samples from boreholes and by other geophysical techniques. An informed choice can then be made of machinery and methods for excavation and ground support, which will reduce the risk of encountering unforeseen ground conditions. In planning the route, the horizontal and vertical alignments can be selected to make use of the best ground and water conditions. It is common practice to locate a tunnel deeper than otherwise would be required, in order to excavate through solid rock or other material that is easier to support during construction. Conventional desk and preliminary site studies may yield insufficient information to assess such factors as the blocky nature of rocks, the exact location of fault zones, or the stand up times of softer ground. This may be a particular concern in large diameter tunnels. To give more information, a pilot tunnel or drift tunnel may be driven ahead of the main excavation. This smaller tunnel is less likely to collapse catastrophically should unexpected conditions be met, and it can be incorporated into the final tunnel or used as a backup or emergency escape passage. Alternatively, horizontal boreholes may sometimes be drilled ahead of the advancing tunnel face. Other key geotechnical factors Stand up time is the amount of time a newly excavated cavity can support itself without any added structures. Knowing this parameter allows the engineers to determine how far an excavation can proceed before support is needed, which in turn affects the speed, efficiency, and cost of construction. Generally, certain configurations of rock and clay will have the greatest stand up time, while sand and fine soils will have a much lower stand up time. Groundwater control is very important in tunnel construction. Water leaking into a tunnel or vertical shaft will greatly decrease stand up time, causing the excavation to become unstable and risking collapse. The most common way to control groundwater is to install dewatering pipes into the ground and to simply pump the water out. A very effective but expensive technology is ground freezing, using pipes which are inserted into the ground surrounding the excavation, which are then cooled with special refrigerant fluids. This freezes the ground around each pipe until the whole space is surrounded with frozen soil, keeping water out until a permanent structure can be built. Tunnel cross sectional shape is also very important in determining stand up time. If a tunnel excavation is wider than it is high, it will have a harder time supporting itself, decreasing its stand up time. A square or rectangular excavation is more difficult to make self supporting, because of a concentration of stress at the corners. Choice of tunnels vs. For water crossings, a tunnel is generally more costly to construct than a bridge. However, navigational considerations may limit the use of high bridges or drawbridge spans intersecting with shipping channels, necessitating a tunnel. Bridges usually require a larger footprint on each shore than tunnels. In areas with expensive real estate, such as Manhattan and urban Hong Kong, this is a strong factor in favor of a tunnel. Bostons Big Dig project replaced elevated roadways with a tunnel system to increase traffic capacity, hide traffic, reclaim land, redecorate, and reunite the city with the waterfront. Cabinet Vision Crack there. The 1. 93. 4 Queensway Tunnel under the River Mersey at Liverpool was chosen over a massively high bridge for defense reasons it was feared that aircraft could destroy a bridge in times of war. Clayderman Midi Files. Maintenance costs of a massive bridge to allow the worlds largest ships to navigate under were considered higher than for a tunnel. Similar conclusions were reached for the 1. Kingsway Tunnel under the Mersey. In Hampton Roads, Virginia, tunnels were chosen over bridges for strategic considerations in the event of damage, bridges would prevent US Navy vessels from leaving Naval Station Norfolk.
