Construction detail of tunnel with detailing

This architectural drawing is Construction detail of tunnel with detailing. The cutting can be done by two methods. One is bottom up method in which a tunnel is excavated under the surface using ground support. Another method is top-down method in which side support walls are constructed first by slurry walling method or contiguous bored piling. There are three basic types of tunnel construction in common use: Cut-and-cover tunnel, constructed in a shallow trench and then covered over. Bored tunnel, constructed in situ, without removing the ground above. Immersed tube tunnel, sunk into a body of water and laid on or buried just under its bed.
