SUMMARY:Technology advancement of tunnel boring machines in Europe
DESCRIPTION:In-person (Brisbane) and webinar—this session will be livestreamed at the Engineers Australia Brisbane office with drinks and light refreshments. Those from around the country can join the webinar. \nIn this presentation\, Dr Remo Grandori will present a series of innovative technologies developed in recent years to make the execution of large underground tunnel projects faster and safer. He will illustrate these technologies from his extensive experience\, bringing practical examples of completed works\, including long railway tunnels in the presence of asbestos\, under high cover in squeezing ground and high water pressures. \nOutline\nIn this presentation\, Dr Remo Grandori will present a series of innovative technologies developed in recent years to make the execution of large underground tunnel projects faster and safer.

We’ll be recapping the year and some changes in the committee\, and provide the opportunity for feedback and nominations. This is your opportunity to have your say in how your local chapter is run. \nSpeaker\nDr Remo Grandori\nWeBuild \nDr Remo Grandori gained a PhD in Industrial Mechanical Engineering from the University La Sapienza of Rome in 1984. With a thesis on TBM excavation and rock cutting technology\, he worked in mechanized tunnelling and was the Technical Director for several tunnel projects executed worldwide. From 1996 to 2007\, he taught a course at the University La Sapienza as a contract professor on mechanised tunnel excavations. \nDr Grandori has been involved in the execution of more than 130 TBM tunnel projects for approximately 1100 km of tunnels bored in a wide variety of geologies and conditions. He has participated in the development of several innovations in tunnel and TBMs design\, acting as a consultant to clients\, contractors and TBM manufacturers. His cooperation with the Webuild group goes back to the late eighties and continues until today\, having been involved in the study and execution of several major TBM projects in North and South America\, China\, Europe\, Africa and lately in Australia. \nEvent program\nOnline \n7.00–8.00 pm AEDT (Sydney time) \nIn-person (Brisbane) \n5.30 pm—Arrival and registration \n6.00–7.00 pm—Presentation \n7.00–7.30 pm—Networking
