CVL713 : Analysis and Design of Underground Structures
[edit]Introduction. Types and classification of underground openings. Courses of Study 2024-2025 Civil Engineering 147Factors affecting design. Design methodology. Functional aspects. Size and shapes. Support systems. Codal provisions. Analysis: Stresses and deformations around openings, Stresses and deformations around tunnels and galleries with composite lining due to internal pressure, Closed form solutions, BEM, FEM. Design: Design based on analytical methods; Empirical methods based on RSR, RMR, Q systems; Design based on Rock support interaction analysis; Observational method- NATM, Convergence-confinement method. Design based on Wedge failure and key block analysis. Design of Shafts and hydraulic tunnels. Stability of excavation face and Tunnel portals. Use of appropriate software packages.
