The excavation process and the primary support design requirements of traffic and hydrotechnical tunnels are the same. Nevertheless, the structural design aspects of the final (inner) lining of these two tunnel types are different and misunderstanding of these differences is often the reason for problems occurring in operation. Although the technical issues related to the subject were correctly identified and solved decades ago, it appears that some of the basic technical aspects are not addressed correctly in the design and execution of some hydrotechnical tunnels today. This fact was the main motivation of the authors to summarize current experiences of design and construction in hydropower projects worldwide. The primary focus is placed on the technical requirements for the final hydraulic lining of tunnels and shafts. For unlined and shotcrete lined tunnels, the design is mostly performed by classification systems. The limitations and risks of this approach are explained. For concrete lined and steel lined tunnels and shafts, current experiences and preconditions for the state-of-the-art design approaches are discussed.","PeriodicalId":39412,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanik und Tunnelbau","volume":"18 5","pages":"490-497"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145237053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in recent years, it struggled to attract young talents. While shifting life and work values are frequently given as contributing factors, empirical evidence to support this claim remains scarce. In view of that, an international online survey was conducted from March to July 2025 to explore generational differences in experiences, beliefs, needs, and goals of members of the applied geo-community. The survey targeted professionals of all ages who study or work in geotechnics or other applied geo-related disciplines. This article focuses on the responses from Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. The results do not suggest that there is a consistent generational gap. While there are certain differences about some topics (e.g., conflicts with younger generations rather revolve around work-life balance and priorities but with older generations more around authority and decision-making), many questions show strong agreement between generations (e.g., finding meaning and fulfilment in the job is more important than income). The results serve as a foundation for increasing the profession's attractiveness, offer valuable insights into intergenerational biases, and lay the groundwork for improved collaboration in the workplace.","PeriodicalId":39412,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanik und Tunnelbau","volume":"18 5","pages":"393-403"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145237258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first exploratory boreholes already revealed water ingress with flow rates of over 100 l/s in combination with significant material discharge. The location of the key zone directly below the S6 expressway required a modification of the original planning approach. Due to the erosion-prone and unstable rock in the peripheral zone, two large-scale injection screens with 97 and 75 injection boreholes per shield with lengths of 50–70 m were required for each railway tube. The subsequent excavation was carried out in sections in 7 m long stages, each with 59 pieces and 24 m long cased injection wells. To reduce settlement, an additional 32 pieces of pipe umbrella pipes with a length of 15 m were executed per stage. In the upcoming carbonate, the tunnelling was carried out with injection screens according to the top-down system. For each 10 m long tunnelling stage, uncased boreholes with a length of between 5 and 20 m were drilled. Depending on the conditions encountered, the injections were carried out using Portland cement, hybrid mortar, ultra-fine binder, silicate gel and polyurethane.","PeriodicalId":39412,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanik und Tunnelbau","volume":"18 5","pages":"412-424"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145237269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In preparation, geotechnical investigations began in 2022 under the name “Coire Glas Exploratory Works”. STRABAG UK Ltd was awarded the contract following a public tender and work began in November 2022. A major part of the project was the construction of an initial 0.9 km long exploratory tunnel, the length of which was extended to 1.2 km during the course of the work. The aim of the investigations was to record the geological and hydrological conditions in order to safeguard the planning of underground structures such as pressure shafts, turbine and transformer caverns and access tunnels.","PeriodicalId":39412,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanik und Tunnelbau","volume":"18 5","pages":"498-506"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145237276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a dialogue between retired, active and future generations of geoscientists and engineers, this contribution highlights the technical aspects as well as the human relationships. Especially in remote alpine areas, infrastructure design is increasingly confronted by spatial conflicts of interest in times of global environmental change. While the focus was mainly on solving technical problems (the art of engineering) 50 years ago, today the Procurement Law, environmental regulations and the accomplishment of procedures come first. New trends in contractual cooperation between client and contractor give hope that the technical challenges will once again take centre stage. In addition, the methods and technologies available to us are developing at rapid pace. Future generations face the significant challenge of not only gathering virtual data but also understanding it, verifying it, and ultimately generating added value. Our experience in science, geoscience and engineering shows, that interdisciplinary and intergenerational communication has to be enhanced in order to cope with the challenges of global change.","PeriodicalId":39412,"journal":{"name":"Geomechanik und Tunnelbau","volume":"18 5","pages":"385-392"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145237221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
