CUT-AND-COVER TUNNELING SUPPLEMENTAL VOLUME-CONSTRUCTION COST DATA FOUR BASIC ESTIMATES

The overall report presents a method for making comparative evaluations of cut-and-cover tunneling operations required for highway and transit construction within urban areas. It considers both the cost of construction and cost of disruption, enabling the planner to choose construction most effective for his particular requirement. This Supplemental Volume contains computer printouts showing complete cost detail for four cut-and-cover projects. It is primarily reference material for those interested in the basic details used by the study team to develop the series of 176 multiple estimates summarized in Volume 2. (FHWA)
