Geology for Engineering (250MEG002) – Course 2025/26 PDF

Activities

The main objectives of the work are: 1) The geomechanical characterization of the ground (evaluation of the quality of the rock mass, degree of fracturing, ...) for the project of a tunnel and clearing access. 2) Analysis of major geological and geotechnical aspects that influence the work in question, as excavability terrain, defining the dumps, stability of the tunnel face, etc. 3) To propose a system of tunnel excavation and support, the angle of the clearing of access, and discussion of the need for reinforcement measures and / or containment of the land.
