The project in Transport Tunnels is an irrevocable part of the subject of the same name. With the project, students complement their knowledge in the field of tunnel construction and gain certain practical experience. The project includes contemporary methods for installation of tunnel cladding (with the help of metal frames, anchors, sprinkled concrete and combinations of them), preceded by design of the respective tunnel section. The preparation of the respective drilling/blasting works is considered too. Special attention is paid to the design of the longitudinal profile of the structure and the arrangement of the portal sections. The technological part considers the appropriate machinery related to the method accepted for tunnel construction.
