Construction of Final, Permanent
Tunnel Linings
©RKW 2008
• When the initial ground support components
described in do not fulfil the long-term functional
requirements for the tunnel, a final lining is
installed.
• On occasion, an initial ground support consisting
of precast segments will also serve as the final
lining.
• More typically, the final lining will be constructed
of cast-in-place concrete, reinforced or
unreinforced, or a steel lining surrounded by
concrete or grout.

Surveying for Tunnels
©RKW 2008
• Technological advances in survey engineering
have had a great influence on the design and
construction of tunnels.
• From initial planning and integration of
geotechnical and geographical data with
topographical and utility mapping through the
actual alignment and guidance of tunnel and
shaft construction, survey engineering now plays
a major role in the overall engineering and
construction of underground structures.
• To benefit from these advances, survey engineers
should be involved from the inception of planning
through design and final construction.
©RKW 2008
• The results of these surveys would provide more
cost-effective existing-conditions data:
– From topographic mapping to detailed urban utility
surveys.
– The use of appropriate coordinate systems tailored to
meet the specific needs of the project.
– Optimised alignments.
– More accurate surface and subsurface horizontal and
vertical control networks properly tied to other systems
and structures.
– Precise layout and alignment of shaft and tunnel
structures.
– Significant reduction in the impact of survey operations
on tunnel advance rates.

Construction Hazards and
Safety Requirements
©RKW 2008
• Many years ago, underground construction was
traditionally been considered a hazardous
endeavour.
• In today's world, the frequency of accidents and
the fatality rates for underground construction
have approached those of other types of
construction, partly because of a better
understanding of causes of accidents and how to
prevent them, and partly because of a greater
degree of mechanisation of underground works.

• Electric accidents
– Electrician failing to secure circuits before working on
equipment.
– Faults due to moisture entering electric equipment.
• Blasting accidents
– Flying rock.
– Unexploded charges in muck pile.
– Premature initiation due to stray currents or radio
activity, if using electric detonation.

Hazards Under Human Control …
©RKW 2008
Accidents happen in tunnels due to:
• Tunnels often provide very limited space for work
and for people to move.
• Poor lighting and limited visibility in the tunnel.
• Often inadequate instruction and training of
personnel in the detailed mechanics of tunnelling.
• Carelessness and inattention to safety
requirements on the part of workers or
supervisory personnel.
• Unauthorized action on part of worker.
• Equipment failure, sometimes due to inadequate
inspection and maintenance.

Environmental Considerations and
Effects
©RKW 2008
• Many laws, rules, and regulations apply to
underground construction.
• Satisfying the requirements imposed by these
laws and regulations including associated permits
are the focus of other lecture and are not
addressed in this TA4224 lecture.
• Accommodating environmental and permit
requirements during construction involve little
incremental cost or schedule disruption if the
requirements are effectively addressed in
planning, design, and contract documents.
• Early preconstruction work typically includes
preparation of an Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS).
©RKW 2008
• Design and construction constraints embodied in
the EIS must be adhered to during design and
construction.
– Effects of settlements and ground movements.
– Groundwater control and disposal.
– Spoil management.
– Waste waters.
– Control of fugitive dust.
– Storm water runoff and erosion control.
– Noise and vibration.
– Contingency planning.

Contracting Practices
©RKW 2008
• A principal goal in preparing contract documents
is to achieve a contract that will yield a fair price
for the work performed, acceptable quality of the
work, and a minimum of disputes.
• A number of different contract provisions are
employed to achieve these goals.
• Several of these clauses serve to minimise the
need for bidders to include large contingencies in
their bid to make up for the uncertainty often
associated with underground works.
• A number of clauses are of particular use in
underground works.
©RKW 2008
Differing site conditions
• The differing site conditions clause is now a
standard in most contracts.
• The clause provides that the contractor is entitled
to additional reimbursement if conditions
(geologic or other) differ from what is
represented in the contract documents and if
these conditions cause the contractor to expend
additional time and money.
©RKW 2008
Full disclosure of available subsurface
information
• All available factual subsurface information
should be fully disclosed to bidders, without
disclaimers.
• This is usually achieved by making all
geotechnical data reports available to the
bidders.
©RKW 2008
Contract variations in price
• When a construction contract is relatively small
and the work is well defined with little chance of
design changes, and when the geology is well
defined, a lump sum type of contract is often
appropriate.
• Most often, underground construction contracts
are better served by another type of contract in
which certain well defined parts of the work are
paid for in individual lump sums, while other
parts are paid for on a unit price basis.
• This permits equitable payment for portions of
the work where quantities are uncertain.
©RKW 2008
Contract variations in price …
• Examples of other construction items that may be
suited for unit pricing:
– Probehole drilling.
– Preventive or remedial grouting.
– Supplementary payments if estimated water inflow is
exceeded.
– Different payment for excavation of different rock (soil)
types if excavation efforts are expected to be
significantly different and quantities are unknown.
– Payment for stopping TBM advance (hourly rate) if
necessary to perform probehole drilling or grouting or to
deal with excessive groundwater inflow or other defined
inclement.
©RKW 2008
Contract variations in price …
• When preparing a bid schedule with variable bid
items, it is wise to watch for opportunities where
the bidder could unbalance the bid by placing
excessive unit prices on items with small
quantities.
• Each quantity should be large enough to affect
the bid total or unit prices are “upset” at a
maximum permitted price to avoid unbalancing.
• There is usually a standard clause providing for
adjustment to unit prices if changes in quantities
exceed a certain amount, usually 15 or 20
percent.
