The recent ICE Knowledge newsletter featured case studies and papers which looked at lessons learned on ground and underground engineering projects from around the world.
We have selected two articles of particular interest below. Click on the links to download:
3D numerical modelling of soil–structure interaction during EPB tunnelling | CROSS Structural Safety |
This study refers to the recently built Milan metro line 5, illustrating 3D finite-element analysis aimed at back-predicting the response of a multi-storey reinforced concrete building underpassed by a metro tunnel. Download | This is CROSS newsletter number 37, containing reports on examples of structural safety concerns. It exposes concerns regarding structural safety for nine case studies, and gives some panel comments and recommendations for each. Download |
