About this Event
The ATS Short Course 2022 is a multi-day event, designed to provide an introduction to the world of tunnels. The course is targeted at young tunnellers, new entrants to the tunnelling market, senior engineers looking to refresh their knowledge across multiple disciplines and others looking to upskill. This short course has proved a key jumping off point for a number of tunnelling professionals over the years.
The 2022 edition is to be hosted at the Hyatt in Sydney in late May with a cast of "rockstar" tunnellers and underground construction professions. The agenda for the two days will include presentations on the following topics:
• Conventional Mined Tunnel Excavation
• Design and Construction of Immersed Tube Tunnelling
• Fire life safety / Ventilation Design
• Ground improvement
• Ground movements, I&M and Building impact assessment
• Ground Support Design
• Health and Safety in Tunnelling
• History of tunnel construction and use of the underground space
• Hydrogeology, Groundwater Control
• Microtunnelling
• Observational Method in Tunnelling
• Overview of ATS Tunnel Design Guidelines
• Procurement of underground construction
• Risk Management in tunnelling
• Segmental Lining Design
• Site investigation, geotechnical interpretation and ground model: Soil / Rock
• TBM Tunnelling
• Tunnel Operations and Maintainability considerations
• Tunnel Spaceproofing
• Use of BIM in Tunnelling
• Waterproofing
As well as the formal educational section of the agenda, delegates are invited to join short course presenters and industry professionals for a networking social event. This event will provide an opportunity for delegates to engage with presenters in a less formal setting and to develop their tunnelling professional network.
The short course will also provide opportunities to visit tunnels in operation and under construction through site visits. Site visit attendance will be strictly limited to short course delegates.
