A Civil Engineer’s Approach to Utility Tunnels
The design of successful underground utility tunnels requires the involvement of a complete multidiscipline engineering team.
While mechanical, electrical and plumbing expertise is a fundamental part of effective utility tunnel design, it is equally important for these projects to have the benefit of civil and structural engineering input. In his recent article for District Energy, RMF’s Steve Buckler discusses how applying classical civil engineering concepts can simplify and improve project design for utility tunnels.
