Controlling Risk of Tunneling Projects Implemented by Alternative Delivery Method

Synopsis:

The unpredictability inherent in underground projects and the accelerated pace of design-build or P3 tunnel projects can result in additional risks, construction delays, added costs and potentially expensive litigation if risk management strategies are not implemented early. This paper examines risks associated with alternative delivery methods of tunneling and underground projects from the owner, contractor, and engineer perspectives and identifies potential remedial measures to deal with them.
