This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tunnels represent a significant financial investment with challenging design, construction, and operational issues. Tunnels that are not adequately maintained usually require more costly and extensive repairs. To help safeguard tunnel users and to ensure reliable levels of service, the FHWA developed the National Tunnel Inspection Standards (NTIS), the Tunnel Operations Maintenance Inspection and Evaluation (TOMIE) Manual, and the Specifications for National Tunnel Inventory (SNTI). In accordance with the NTIS, this Manual describes methods for improving the safety and performance of roadway tunnel operation, maintenance, inspection, and evaluation programs.

This book was released on 2018-06-24 with total page 1158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your timely source for more cost-effective and less disruptive solutions to your underground infrastructure needs. The North American Tunneling Conference is the premier biennial tunneling event for North America, bringing together the brightest, most resourceful, and innovative minds in the tunneling industry. It underscores the important role that the industry plays in the development of underground spaces, transportation and conveyance systems, and other forms of sustainable underground infrastructure. With every conference, the number of attendees and breadth of topics grow. The authors—experts and leaders in the industry—share the latest case histories, expertise, lessons learned, and real-world applications from around the globe. Crafted from a collection of 126 papers presented at the conference, this book takes you deep inside the projects. It includes challenging design issues, fresh approaches on performance, future projects, and industry trends as well as ground movement and support, structure analysis, risk and cost management, rock tunnels, caverns and shafts, TBM technology, and water and wastewater conveyance.

This book was released on 2019-08-12 with total page 695 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increased use of underground space for transportation systems and the increasing complexity and constraints of constructing and maintaining above ground transportation infrastructure have prompted the need to develop this technical manual. This FHWA manual is intended to be a single-source technical manual providing guidelines for planning, design, construction and rehabilitation of road tunnels, and encompasses various types of tunnels including mined and bored tunnels (Chapters 6-10), cut-and-cover tunnels (Chapter 5), immersed tunnels (Chapter 11), and jacked box tunnels (Chapter 12). The scope of the manual is primarily limited to the civil elements of design and construction of road tunnels. FHWA intended to develop a separate manual to address in details the design and construction issues of the system elements of road tunnels including fire life safety, ventilation, lighting, drainage, finishes, etc. This manual therefore only provides limited guidance on the system elements when appropriate.
Download or read book Critical Findings for Tunnel Functional Systems written by Martha Averso and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the National Tunnel Inspection Standards (NTIS) Final Rule, FHWA used the same definition of critical findings for highway tunnels as for highway bridges. The Tunnel Operations, Maintenance, Inspection, and Evaluation (TOMIE) Manual, incorporated into the regulation by reference, does not provide criteria for defining critical findings in functional systems. Tunnels have unique characteristics, which may include functional systems such as ventilation, lighting, drainage, fire/life safety/security, communications and signage for traffic management, and emergency evacuation. The intent of the NTIS and TOMIE Manual is that tunnel owners will define critical findings for each tunnel based on its unique characteristics. The operation of functional systems is highly variable between different tunnels. Some may have different modes of function for emergencies such as fires in tunnels, while others do not. Some have automatic or remote controls that can alter operation modes in response to changing conditions, while others may have fixed modes of operation that can only be adjusted manually, or cannot be adjusted at all. The objective of this synthesis is to document state DOT methods and criteria for defining critical findings for tunnel functional systems. Information to be gathered includes (but is not limited to): (1) Identification of state DOTs that have tunnels with functional systems as defined by NTIS section 650.505; (2) State DOT procedures for defining critical findings in functional systems (e.g., statewide criteria, criteria for individual tunnels, inspector recommended); (3) Basis for the critical findings criteria (e.g., original design, level of complexity, functional analysis, maintenance records, level of service, potential for imminent danger, AHJ involvement); (4) Location of critical findings criteria documentation (e.g., tunnel specific documentation, generic state DOT inspection manuals); and (5) Protocol for reporting critical findings to FHWA. Information will be collected through a literature review, a survey of state DOTs, and follow-up interviews with selected agencies for the development of case examples. Information gaps and suggestions for research to address those gaps will be identified." -- publisher's website
