Over the past two thousand years, tunneling and underground construction have developed into a highly technical special discipline in civil engineering that makes great underground structures possible.
But what does the future hold for underground construction? Today, we face the challenge of making the best use of the underground to respond to megatrends such as climate change, urbanization, and the shortage of housing that comes with population growth.
In the underground, we find alternatives to compensate for the lack of space underground and reduce the impact on the environment with sustainable projects.
This brings new challenges and issues to discuss.
On our Vision Underground platform, we highlight the future of underground construction from six different themes based on our white paper "Tunneling & Underground Space 2050":
Sustainability & Tunneling What tunnels bring to the fight against climate change.
Underground cities Why the future of cities will also lie underground.
Tunnel use What we can use underground space for in the future.
Social Cost Benefit Why the social aspect must also be taken into account when building tunnels.
Complex Underground Projects How we manage the increasing complexity of tunneling projects.
Social acceptance Why tunnel construction projects should be democratically legitimized.
Want to dive deeper into these topics? Get a PDF copy of our white paper "Tunneling & Underground Space 2050" - with exclusive expert contributions and examples. The book addresses new or previously unfocused discussion points in the field of underground construction and aims to stimulate discourse and promote interdisciplinary dialog among construction professionals, engineers, investors and involved authorities. Only in German available.
