One of which is worldwide known and one of the most prestigious projects of India - Konkan Railway, and second is internationally noted tourist spot- Amby Valley Sahara lake city. In Konkan Railway project, double twisted wire mesh was used as a basic material for variety of problems like rock fall prevention, Gravity walls at the base of rock slopes, Baby Gabions as ballast retention for railway tracks, Platform Gabions etc. Adoption of Gabions and rock fall netting was one of its types of innovative solutions for this project. For Amby Valley Sahara lake city project, global instability of high cuttings in soil and heavy landslides were the major geotechnical problems. Many traditional solutions have failed at the site. Gabion retaining walls were adopted of heights ranging from 2 m to 13 m. Though there were initial failures mainly due to faulty construction, the same system of Gabion walls was continuously adopted due to its flexible, permeable and environment friendly nature. INTRODUCTION conventional solution may not serve the purpose and need of innovative techniques arises. Civil Engineers always come across critical problems with unique site conditions. Many a times, instead of following the Case histories of Konkan Railway project and Amby Valley same path of traditional solutions, they may need to adopt Sahara lake city project are discussed in subsequent innovative ideas which will best suit as the problem solution paragraphs with respect to project brief introduction, with economy and utmost effectiveness. geotechnical problems faced while execution and solutions adopted. As far as Geotechnical Engineering is concerned, the intensity of such critical problems is more, as we, Geotechnical Engineers, need to deal with soil, rock and inside strata of the KONKAN RAILWAY PROJECT, MAHARASHTRA, earth to study the particular site, before going for construction. INDIA Many uncertainties always persist with unique characteristics of each region. But, for all major and important civil engineering works, such Geotechnical surveys and relative Project Brief History studies are highly necessary. Until Konkan Railway started its operations, the two important While executing any such projects, the documentation of the port cities Mangalore (in Karnataka State of India) and experience, new learning and many innovative solutions Mumbai (in Maharashtra State of India) were not directly adopted successfully, can be kept and referred back as a Case connected by the railway network. Even though economic History in future. Case histories play an important role to reasons provided a strong need to connect these two cities, the arrive at a solution, not only for practicing engineers as a region through which the railway track passed was guide, but also for professors and students as a reference geographically very tough and would be an engineering literature and sometimes also for experienced professionals in challenge. the field. In Geotechnical Engineering practice, designers many times come across a problem, for which giving the Paper No. 11.10b 1 The Konkan Railway is the first railway project in India, formidable terrain and the short construction period which was taken on ‘BOT’ (Build-Operate and Transfer) necessitated the use of several technological innovations.

The ballast which is laid below the tracks primarily serves the purpose of load dispersion apart from giving added The client of this project was Konkan Railway Corporation resilience.

This requires a greater utilization of space on the sides, with sufficient width for embankment. The task was formidable. As Karlis Goppers pointed out in Further over a period of time, due to the repeated use of track, his Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency the ballast has a tendency to roll out of tracks. Also, as an (SIDA) report in July 1997: With a total number of 2,000 innovative solution and for speedy construction, Gabions were bridges and 92 tunnels to be built through this mountainous used to construct the platforms of various stations along the terrain containing many rivers, the project is the biggest and route. perhaps most difficult railway undertaking during this century, at least in this part of the world.

    Road works Problems and solutions Gravity earth retaining structures Gabion earth retaining structures Technical manuals define a retaining structure as any structure capable of resisting an applied soil pressure. Retaining walls are permanent structures typically constructed at the toe of a slope or to retain backfill. The planning and implementation of these structures must take careful account of several structural and functional considerations: - Geomorphological conditions - Analysis of the static and dynamic (seismic) forces present - Presence of phreatic surfaces - Costs of the completed structure "Functionality" must include not only the overall environmental impact of the structure, but also the various local environmental mitigations and improvements that the entire road works should provide. The variety of gabion applications, combined with the testamonial Italy of existing gabion structures built since 1894, represents the reliability and reassurance that Maccaferri offers its clients. Over time, design standards and approaches have changed. What has not altered is the ability of Maccaferri gabions to perform as designed; fundamentally the structural stability and integrity, but in addition the capability to establish vegetation with the active function (the creation of a new local on the external facing. environmental equilibrium). The key to the longevity of these structures is obviously based Gabion structures were, perhaps unconsciously in the upon the quality of the steel wire, but mainly due to the original beginning, the first historical examples of "environmental idea of gabions.

    Temporary Slope Stabilization at the Airport Trail Tunnel Excavation, City of Calgary Paul Xu, Ognian Gubev, Bronwen Kelley Laura Normore, Tara Rihn, Lee Nichols Terracon Geotechnique Ltd., Calgary, Alberta, Canada Kelly Illerbrun PCL, Calgary, Alberta, Canada ABSTRACT The City of Calgary identified Airport Trail as a key East-West Corridor providing connection from Deerfoot Trail to Stoney Trail. The Calgary International Airport expansion project resulted in a need to develop a tunnel to accommodate east-west traffic under the new runway and taxiways. This tunnel was constructed as a cut and cover tunnel requiring excavation up to 19 metres deep in the local tills and Tertiary soft rocks. This paper describes the rock slope issues and mitigating measures to allow safe construction to proceed. RÉSUMÉ La ville de Calgary a identifié l’Airport Trail comme étant un corridor est-ouest clé assurant la connexion entre la Deerfoot Trail et la Stoney Trail. Le projet d’expansion de l’aéroport international de Calgary a donné lieu à un besoin de développer un tunnel pour répondre au trafic est-ouest sous la nouvelle piste et les nouvelles voies de circulation. Ce tunnel a été construit comme un tunnel couvert nécessitant une excavation jusqu’à 19 mètres de profondeur dans les tills locaux et les roches tendres du Tertiaire. Ce document décrit les problèmes de talus rocheux et les mesures d’atténuation afin de permettre une construction sécuritaire. 1 INTRODUCTION Geotechnical site investigation work (core drilling and seismic surveys) completed by others was conducted The Calgary International Airport was undergoing the from 2008 through to 2010.

Foreword Stopbanks are the main structural measure used by the Bay of Plenty Regional Council (BOPRC) to protect people and property from floodwaters. The Regional Council has built and maintains some 346 km of stopbanks which line the banks of rivers and streams on five major and minor flood protection schemes. Over time the Regional Council has amassed a great deal of experience in the design, construction and ongoing maintenance of stopbanks. Whilst much of the operational and maintenance is summarised in Regional Council’s Asset Management Plan very little Council documentation exists to describe the process of designing and building stopbanks. The aim of this document is to provide guidance to existing and potential owners of stopbanks on how to build, own and maintain stopbanks that are reliable especially when working under design loading conditions. The document provides guidance on vital points to consider from the planning stage right through to describing flood emergency barrier options. This guideline documents Regional Council’s in-house experience and compliments it with other best practices adopted by other national and international agencies responsible for stopbanks.
