Underground Spaces : Design, Engineering and Environmental Aspects

It is a strongly held belief that population growth and the demand for better accommodation and leisure facilities, combined with a desire to improve the landscape, will result in the need to develop more underground spaces. This phenomenon, which started in countries subjected to extreme climates, is now becoming more widespread.

Underground spaces are being utilized for a wide diversity of needs. They range from classical excavations to subway constructions  underground sports halls  power stations  waste repositories  underground cities, and many others. Their construction techniques are also varied, from open-air excavations to newly developed injection methods.
