Product Description: The Central Artery/Tunnel Project (CA/T) in Boston, Massachusetts, is the largest urban highway construction project in the history of the interstate system. The magnitude and complexity of the project, set in the variable and difficult subsurface conditions of the 350-year-old city, have required engineers to develop unique and innovative solutions...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: Residual soils generally are derived, in place, as a result of long term weathering processes of the underlying bedrock formations. Between the surface soils and unweathered bedrock are varying stages of decomposed rock. The nature of this subsurface profile is highly variable, both horizontally and vertically...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: Tunnel jacking is used to construct large shallow underground openings in areas where disruption to surface use and activities cannot be tolerated. The technique of tunnel jacking is not new, but in recent years it has been used to construct openings primarily in Europe and Asia, often under railroad lines and highways...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)
