Design and Construction of Submerged Floating Tunnel

A submerged floating tunnel (SFT), also called Archimedes bridge or suspended tunnel, is a tunnel that floats in the water supported by its buoyancy (specifically, by employing the hydrostatic thrust, or Archimedes’ principle). Structural Components of Submerged Floating Tunnel A ...
Hypertunnel’s Breakthrough Technique in Tunneling

A Basingstoke-based startup called Hypertunnel has developed a revolutionary approach to tunneling including tunnel construction, enlargement, repair and maintenance of tunnels and underground structures. The company’s co-founders, Jeremy Hammond and Steve Jordanhe showcased a new, cost-effective, safer and environment-friendly system ...
Submerged Floating Tunnel: Principle, Features, and Challenges

A submerged floating tunnel (SFT), also called Archimedes bridge or suspended tunnel, is a tunnel that floats in water supported by its buoyancy (specifically, by employing the hydrostatic thrust, or Archimedes’ principle). Tunnels in water are not new in civil ...
