Features: This book is a teaching material for undergraduate students majoring in underground construction engineering, and serves as the textbook for two courses in the field: Underground Construction Engineering Design and Underground Construction Engineering Construction. According to the requirements of the professional development direction, the content of this textbook primarily focuses on rock mass underground structures, supplemented by a small amount of soil layer underground construction content. In terms of engineering types, it mainly features representative tunnels and chambers. The textbook takes underground construction engineering design and construction as the main thread. Chapter 1 to Chapter 4 covers the design section, while Chapter 5 to Chapter 13 covers the construction section. From the textbook structure, it can be seen that the focus is on the construction section. During the writing process of this book, emphasis was placed on the development and application of new theories, new technologies, and new processes. The book includes both commonly used design theories and the latest design theories, such as the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM) and numerical methods, as well as new technologies and processes commonly used in construction engineering, such as the tunnel boring machine (TBM) method, shield tunneling method, pipe arch pile method, and the new anchoring and shotcrete support process. Additionally, certain design and construction examples are provided. Therefore, the main features of the book's content are strong practicality and a certain depth of theory.
