    Construction Methods of Metro Lines

    Uploaded by

    afzal tai
    This document discusses various methods for constructing tunnels and subway stations. It begins by outlining planning considerations like route selection and geotechnical investigation. It then describes different tunnel construction techniques including cut-and-cover methods, mining methods using shields or the Belgian, German, or New Austrian methods, and special methods like caissons. Station construction using cut-and-cover, mining methods, or a one, three, or five-vault approach is also discussed. Other topics covered include ground support, equipment used in the Budapest metro project, and connecting operations such as soil solidification and water removal. Diagrams illustrate many of the construction techniques.
