BTS modelling soil structural interaction seminar
9 January 2017Don't forget to register for the joint NAFEMS/BTS one-day seminar on modelling soil structural Interaction during tunnel excavation on 23rd February 2017 at the University of Warwick.
This seminar will focus on numerical modelling of the complex interaction between soil and structure during tunnel excavation. This is a major talking point currently, with over 26 miles of tunnels being built under the UK’s capital city as part of Crossrail and numerous London Underground Station Upgrade projects.
Ensuring that the tunnels are correctly designed is essential to ensure the safety of those involved in the tunnelling operation as well as ensuring that life above ground carries on without interruption. The event will focus on modelling of the soil-structure interaction behaviour in tunnel construction, with an emphasis on sprayed concrete lining. BTS Members can attend for GBP 50 for the day.
