The TBMs were the real heroes in linking England and France via the Channel Tunnel, a dream realized in 1990. Let’s explore how Channel tunnel was built.
The Channel Tunnel project required three tunnels, two main tunnels and one service tunnel. The tunnel is split into six manageable sections using two smart crossovers. Lets explore the geometry of the Channel Tunnel.
The Channel Tunnel is linking England and France beneath the English Channel. Crossing the violent English Channel via an underground tunnel has been one of mankind’s greatest engineering dreams. Lets explore th piston relief ducts.
Many viewers doubted the claim that the Burj Khalifa’s Spire weighs 4,400 tons. Some suggested it might only be 440 tons. To settle the debate, I decided to run a mass analysis using SolidWorks.
The bearings make sure that this slight deflection is allowed in Bailey Bridges. If these bearings were not present, the bridge would have undergone too much internal stress. Lets explore how are Bailey bridges built.
Mariana Trench is the deepest depths of the ocean formed due to the collision of two tectonic plates—specifically, one highly dense plate colliding with a less dense one.
