Abstract

The number of underground constructions has increased massively due to environmental, social and economic reasons. Furthermore, design and construction solutions are even more challenging when attempting to obtain optimal underground solutions. This article is focused on the development of underground constructions in Chile, highlighting the necessary improvements in the design and construction areas, where key topics are seismic design related to urban tunnels, mechanized excavation method promise, and collaborative work between the industry and academics.
