GEOTECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS IN PLANNING OF CLOSE-TO-SURFACE EXCAVATIONS IN URBAN AREAS, DESCRIBED IN AN EXAMPLE OF THE SUBWAY TUNNEL IN THE CITY OF LEIPZIG, EAST GERMANY

GEOTECHNISCHE ERWAEGUNGEN BEI DER PLANUNG VON OBERFLAECHENNAHEN HOHLRAUMBAUTEN IN STADTRAEUMEN, DARGESTELLT UNTER VERWENDUNG DES BIESPIELS DES GEPLANTEN V-BAHN-TUNNELS IN LEIPZIG

Special aspects of the underground excavations in urban areas consist of the confrontation with the fixed municipal installations. Under these assumptions, this paper describes various applications of the most important tunnel-configurations, when excavated from the surface and covered thereafter. Classification of configurations is made based on the techniques for supporting the vertical walls of the excavation.
