Practice topics:
In the framework of the seminar, a semestral project will be prepared for the selected type of underground construction. The following topics will be dealt with in the project:
- design of engineering geological survey for each level of project documentation
- assessment of the suitability of the environment according to classification systems
- design of the underground work profile
- assessment of geostational stress in overburden (HPV effect)
- Assessment of underground work load
- Using numerical methods for the lining dimension
- assessment of the effect of excavation on the surface
- proposal for the monitoring of the excavation of the underground work
