Session Topics

Growing numbers of underground innovations claimed to hold the key to unlock the door to a ‘smarter urban connectivity’. More often than not, these innovations were being embedded into highly complex underground projects that aim to minimise environmental hazards, to save energy, to increase the functional diversity of the urban structure, to reduce the need of local transportation, to make services more easily accessible to residents, and to protect the urban landscape as well as culture for sustainable urban development.

This Congress aims at providing a forum for practising professionals – engineers, consultants, contractors, technologists, researchers, academicians, manufacturers and suppliers to share their experiences, research, studies and views so as to contribute to the advancement of Innovation and Sustainable Underground Serving Global Connectivity. A wide range of high quality scientific and technical papers of international or regional significance on tunnelling and underground space development is expected on, but not limited to, the following topics.

1. Innovation in tunnels and tunnelling technology
2. Innovation in rock support and water proofing technology
3. Sustainable and strategic use of underground space
4. Environment sustainability in underground construction
5. Urban dewatering and flood control with underground tunnels
6. Planning, design and construction of tunnels and underground structures
7. Risk, health and safety, contractual practices and project management of underground construction
8. Instrumentation and monitoring in underground construction
9. Conventional tunnelling, sprayed concrete use, drill and blast excavation
10. Mechanised tunnelling and excavation (hard rock, soft rock and soil)
11. Site investigation and ground characterisation
12. Geological and geotechnical aspects in underground construction
13. Stability assessment and ground stabilisation in underground construction
14. Operation, repair and maintenance of tunnels and underground structures
15. Design and installation of mechanical and electrical systems for underground structures
16. Information modelling in tunnelling and underground space development
17. Projects and case histories
18. Others (e.g. economics of tunnels and use of underground space, life cycle asset management, etc.)
