Abstract

Tunnelling operations on India's major Konkan railway project are described. The 760 km rail link incorporates 82 tunnels, and 1813 bridges. Seven Atlas Copco Boomer 352 drill rigs and two H135 units are working at eight tunnelling sites. Hand-held pneumatic rock drills with pusher legs are being used on shorter tunnels. High mountain ranges complicate activities. (J.M.McLaughlin)
