Abstract: |
Difficulties in tunnel construction can be the result of the given geological and geotechnical conditions, the selection of suitable tunnelling methods as well as the experience and capability in implementing the chosen methods. The geological and geotechnical conditions in the Himalayas are characterised by numerous active faults, complex folding, and thrust zones which will always make tunnelling difficult, whatever method is used. |
