SUMMARY:Getting the most out of the International Tunnelling Association
DESCRIPTION:From current President Arnold Dix to the Working Groups that produce guidance to the industry\, Australian engineers are helping shape global tunnelling through their involvement in the International Tunnelling Association.

He is an Underground Disaster investigator. He is an internationally recognised subject matter expert in fire and life safety and collapses of the underground\, holding a distinguished service award from the United States for his contribution to the fire and life safety of road and rail tunnels (NFPA130 and NFPA502).\n\nHe is a member of the British Institute of Investigators. Arnold has served on the committees and working groups of the ITA\, FIDIC\, PIARC and NFPA for decades. He is active on all continents\, a member of the specialist Underground Works Chambers\, a member of the Victorian Bar and is a visiting Professor of Engineering (tunnels) Tokyo City University.\n\nArnold Dix loves tunnels and the underground space. He is convinced that the underground offers a range of adaptive and resilient solutions to most of the perils facing humanity today. Combining his formal qualifications in Science\, Law and Engineering he advocates for all things underground in UN SDG and ESG contexts with a smile on his face and an eye to all matters ethical. He is a disaster and fire life safety subject matter expert as well as having special law\, insurance and finance interests. He happens to be the president of ITA too.
