Tunneling: A Practical Treatise is a comprehensive guide to the design, construction, and maintenance of tunnels. Written by Charles Prelini, a renowned civil engineer with decades of experience in tunneling, this book covers all aspects of tunneling, from the initial planning stages to the final inspection and maintenance of completed tunnels.The book begins with an overview of the history of tunneling and the various types of tunnels that exist, including road, rail, and water tunnels. It then delves into the planning and design process, covering topics such as geotechnical investigations, tunnel alignment, and structural design.The construction phase is also covered in detail, with chapters on excavation methods, support systems, and lining materials. The book also includes information on safety considerations, such as ventilation and emergency procedures.Finally, Tunneling: A Practical Treatise covers the ongoing maintenance and repair of tunnels, including inspections, monitoring, and rehabilitation techniques.Throughout the book, Prelini provides practical advice and real-world examples from his extensive experience in the field. This makes it an invaluable resource for engineers, contractors, and anyone involved in the planning, design, construction, or maintenance of tunnels.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
