The objective of this paper is to provide an approximate cost estimating model for tunnel that can be utilized both in quick construction cost estimating for design alternatives, and in evaluating efficiently the cost effects according to the environmental changes during design and construction stage. To meet this requirement, this study analyzes critical cost factors influencing tunnel construction costs. The cost factors include 7 elements such as rock drilling method, advancing method, type of detonator, loader capacity, unit weight and soil volume change factor, length of tunnel. This paper investigates the cost variance according to the change of the cost factors. The result is expected to be used in formulating approximate tunnel cost estimating model.

Estimation of total construction period and cost in the early stage of the project is very important. Simulation is one of the method considering proper compound such as tools, materials for effective construction management and estimating and analysing affected factors to construction through making suitable process. This study is to develop the model by using Arena simulation considering limited facts like blast time in a subway tunnel construction of both sides inner city. Developed model is easily useful type by using Visual Basic program, and can obtain total construction period and cost as a result. It could be used as a decision making tool in early stage of the construction.

Construction cost of tunnel is decided on construction area, site conditions, and construction methods. However, there is few research on developing models to estimate early construction costs. Therefore, this paper presents a model for early estimation tool for NATM tunnel using system thinking. The effect factors for tunnel construction cost were defined and the causal map is developed. Then empirical case analysis were performed to identify the cost difference due to tunnel length, excavation volume, and rock quality. The proposed model would be an alternative to estimate early construction cost of NATM tunnel.
