SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE REALIZATION OF SELF-FLOATING SUBMARINE TUNNEL FORMED BY INDIVIDUALLY FLOATING PARALLELEPIPED-SHAPED MODULES MADE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE

摘要

The invention has for object a system and a method for the realization of floating tunnels formed by the aggregation of floating modules in reinforced concrete having a parallelepiped shape, the whole of the union of these modules is solidarized by forming a single body by inserting and pulling special steel cables that cross the entire tunnel in separated sections into sheaths arranged in the walls of the modules themselves, the pulled cables, locked in this position, compress the structure to increase its resistance, the cables are positioned both vertically and horizontally.
