Niederleithinger, E. (author)Geophysical methods are able to contribute significantly to geotechnical site characterization. In-situ parameters are collected and gaps between boreholes or other direct tests are filled with information. However the limited resolution has to be considered and the indirect geophysical parameters have to be translated into something...conference paper 2015

Bakker, K.J. (author), Bezuijen, A. (author)Ten years have passed since in 1997 for the first time construction of bored tunnels in the Netherlands soft soil was undertaken. Before that date essentially only immersed tunnels and cut-and-cover tunnels were constructed in the Netherlands. The first two bored tunnels were Pilot Projects, the 2nd Heinenoord tunnel and the Botlek Rail tunnel....conference paper 2008

Zwanenburg, C. (author)Soft soil is often described as an anisotropic heterogeneous material. Standard soil investigation mainly involves vertically retrieved samples. Information on the parameters working in the horizontal direction remains scarce. Principally each soil property like permeability, stiffness or strength might show anisotropic behaviour. This thesis...doctoral thesis 2005

Kort, D.A. (author)For almost a century, steel sheet pile walls are applied worldwide as earth retaining structures for excavations and quay walls. Within the framework of the development of European structural codes for Civil Engineering works, the Eurocodes, Eurocode 3 Part 5 for design of steel sheet pile walls was issued in 1997. This code offers possibilities...doctoral thesis 2002

Broere, W. (author)Nearly all tunnels bored in soft soils have encountered problems with the stability of the tunnel face. In several cases these problems led to an extended stand-still of the boring process. A better understanding of the face stability, and of the soil conditions around the tunnel boring machine, can reduce the risks during boring, and can avoid...doctoral thesis 2001

Bakker, K.J. (author), De Boer, F. (author), Admiraal, J.B.M. (author), Van Jaarsveld, E.P. (author)Two pilot projects for bored tunnelling in soft soil have been undertaken in the Netherlands. The monitoring was commissioned under the authority of the Centre for Underground Construction (COB). A description of the research related to the Second Heinenoord Tunnel and the Botlek Rail Tunnel will be given. The Second Heinenoord Tunnel has...journal article 1999
