Abstract: Lyon’s Metro B extension tunnel will be shallowly excavated in a dense and sensitive urban context, through pre- and postglacial alluvium interfacing with old wells, erratic boulders and a granite substratum. Settlement control using confined TBM, which is essential for reducing the risk of damage to buildings, become highly sensitive in such context. Among the risks that have been identified...
Abstract: Nowadays, considering the development of BIM in the engineering world and the amount of data to be processed, a new approach for the geotechnical studies is necessary. This paper presents a method mixing old school site observations, an online cartographic web application and a 3D modeling software, both connected to a geodatabase for the purpose of underground projects.
