The course offers an in-depth analysis of some topics of considerable interest for the analysis of the behavior of underground works and their interaction with the environment, both during the construction phases and during operation. The increasingly intense development of infrastructural networks, even in complex contexts from a geological, hydrogeological and geotechnical point of view, and the raising of design standards require the implementation of specialist skills not yet widespread in technical practice and often still the subject of studies and research. The first lessons are dedicated to recalling the basic knowledge of the sector, from the geotechnical characterization for the design of tunnels to the main analytical solutions for the evaluation of the stress-strain state around the cable and for the analysis of the interaction with the works of reinforcement and support. Both conventional and more advanced approaches for tunnel design are then explored in depth, both in the context of traditional excavation and excavation using TBM machines. Finally, the following topics are covered in the form of dedicated seminars: tunnels under the water table, the technique of artificial freezing of the soil as a temporary support for excavations, the effects induced by the excavation of surface tunnels, seismic tests and fire tests of the covering.
