These qualities have been especially evident Bidding over the last 12 months as the Board took on the very Forming technique large task of restructuring how ASA administers the ACI Shotcrete Nozzleman Certification program. Rebar placement In early 2009, the Board became aware of, and began Equipment to examine, some potential shortcomings and industry confusion related to Application ASA’s system for administering certification and education sessions for Certification nozzleman certification. By March 2010, the Board made the decision to develop a plan to restructure the process. The next step was to form an Safety experienced and talented task group to conduct an in-depth review of the then-current process, identify areas for improvement, and develop a detailed plan for moving forward. After many long months of hard work by numerous individuals, a detailed and comprehensive plan was assembled. The finished plan was presented to the full Board at the ASA fall meetings in Pittsburgh, PA, where board members 23565 Morrill Rd voted unanimously to approve the restructuring and its related policies. Los Gatos, CA 95033 There are numerous restructuring goals, but three of the most significant ones are as follows: Phone: (408) 640-6219 • Minimize the administrative work load on Examiners to allow them to be E-mail: [email protected] as objective as possible and to focus specifically on the task of evaluating Web site: www.shotcrete.us participants; • Create a consistent and even playing field for all parties pursuing certi- fication with standardized costs and timelines; and • Create a system of continual evaluation of Examiners and ASA for American Concrete Institute® proactive improvements. Advancing concrete knowledge It is my belief that these goals and many others have been fully addressed by the restructuring. ASA’s process for administering the ACI CERTIFIED EXAMINER Shotcrete Nozzleman Certification program is now significantly more transparent, objective, and consistent. For detailed information on the restructuring changes, visit the Certification section of the ASA Web site at www.shotcrete.org. My thanks to everyone who contributed to this giant step forward for ASA and the shotcrete industry. It continues to be very inspiring to work with a Board of Direction that not only possesses great vision and planning ASA SAFETY but also directly tackles tough topics and simply gets the job done.

  • Alternative Ground Control Strategies in Underground Construction
    Alternative ground control strategies in underground construction Keynote address to be presented by Evert Hoek at an International Symposium on "PRACTICES AND TRENDS FOR FINANCING AND CONTRACTING TUNNELS AND UNDERGROUND WORKS" to be held in Athens, Greece, on 22-23 March 2012 www.tunnelcontracts2012.com/ Alternative ground control strategies in underground construction Evert Hoek Evert Hoek Consulting Engineer Inc., Canada ABSTRACT Underground works vary from shallow urban tunnels to very deep tunnels and caverns in the world’s great mountain ranges. The problems encountered at and between these extremes are entirely different and require appropriate approaches to site investigation, design and construction. The establishment of reliable financial estimates, construction schedules and contract proposals can only be done once a realistic geological model has been prepared and a clear understanding of the likely behaviour of the rock mass and the groundwater conditions has been established. The conditions that control the behaviour of different kinds of excavations in a variety of geological environments are presented in the context of case histories. The aim is to provide project owners, financial managers, insurance companies and contractors with a road map that may assist them in avoiding some of the pitfalls and in considering some of the alternative strategies in the development of underground projects. 1 INTRODUCTION Tunnels have been built for hundreds of years as part of transportation systems for people, goods, water and services. Until the middle of the last century these tunnels were generally small in size and the builders sought out the most favourable geology and topography in which to build them.

Received: 28 December 2018; Accepted: 5 March 2019; Published: 8 March 2019 Abstract: Both Southern Italy and Central China feature historic rural settlements characterized by underground constructions with residential and service functions. Many of these areas are currently tackling economic, social and environmental problems, resulting in unemployment, disengagement, depopulation, marginalization or loss of cultural and biological diversity. Both in Europe and in China, policies for rural development address three core areas of intervention: agricultural competitiveness, environmental protection and the promotion of rural amenities through strengthening and diversifying the economic base of rural communities. The challenge is to create innovative pathways for regeneration based on raising awareness to inspire local rural communities to develop alternative actions to reduce poverty while preserving the unique aspects of their local environment and culture. In this view, cultural heritage can be a catalyst for the sustainable growth of the rural community.
