Geotechnical Site Investigations for Underground Projects. Volume 1. Overview of Practice and Legal Issues, Evaluation of Cases, Conclusions and Recommendations

摘要

The basic objective of the study is to recommend ways of planning and conducting more effective geotechnical site investigation programs. In turn, the results of the study are expected to provide a fundamental contribution to a series of wider objects: advancements in underground construction technology, improvements in controlling or moderating construction costs, and reductions in the incidence and degree of construction hazards or failures.
