"The present boom of underground constructions as a means of improving traffic connections and quality of life implies the transformation of tunneling from an empirical art towards a rational engineering science. Mechanics, being a vanguard of engineering science, is also a main ingredient of rational tunnelling. A rational assessment of rock properties, action of support, environmental impact of excavation are unthinkable without a proper mechanical analysis."
