Produktbeschreibung

Longest Tunnels explores the fascinating world of underground infrastructure, examining the engineering marvels that enable us to traverse mountains and seas. It delves into the technology, planning, and execution behind the world's most impressive tunnels, highlighting their vital role in connecting communities and driving global commerce. Did you know that modern tunnel boring machines (TBMs) have revolutionized tunnel construction, allowing for longer and more complex projects than ever before? The book emphasizes how these tunnels represent humanity's ability to overcome geographical barriers, facilitate trade, and reshape landscapes.

The book progresses by first introducing the principles of tunnel engineering, including geological surveying and risk management. It then moves through case studies of iconic tunnels like the Gotthard Base Tunnel, the Seikan Tunnel, and the Channel Tunnel, examining the unique challenges, innovative solutions, and lasting impact of each.

The study of tunnels connects to several fields, including geology, economics, and environmental science, providing insights into broader challenges of infrastructure development and sustainable engineering.

The book concludes with an analysis of future trends, new materials, and environmental considerations necessary for responsible development.
