Abstract
Recently, a few mega projects of subsea tunneling are completed or ongoing or under planning stage all across the world. In Korea, subsea tunnels connecting to Japan and China have been considered in the past decades. At the same time, subsea tunnels connecting to domestic islands were planned with preliminary design concepts. Development and improvement of indigenous techniques regarding subsea tunneling are essential in light of current technical level in Korea and their future impact on tunneling industry. In this paper, distinct features of subsea tunnel and construction trend of subaqueous tunnels are analyzed via case studies. Also, case studies about incidents related to subsea tunneling and required techniques to secure safety are presented.
