Abstract:

Proceedings of a Specialty Conference held at New England College, Hanniker, New Hampshire, August 11-16, 1974. Sponsored by the Engineering Foundation; the Office of the Secretary, U.S. Department of Transportation; the Federal Highway Administration; and the Geotechnical Engineering Division of the American Society of Civil Engineers. Subsurface Exploration for Underground Excavation and Heavy Construction contains many papers covering a wide range of subjects related to subsurface exploration. Topics include the state of practice-subsurface investigation for highway tunnels, important ground parameters in soft ground tunneling, and exploration and geologic prediction for underground works. These proceedings will be of interest to both practitioners and researchers in the field of underground excavation and heavy construction.
