This book introduces the research background and significance of carbon emissions in the tunnel industry and systematically reviewed the research progresses of carbon emission researches for tunnels， LCA （life cycle assessment） research framework， and uncertainty research progress. The authors propose a novel modular carbon emission calculation method for highway tunnel construction and expounds on the modular LCA system boundary theory of tunnel construction. This method does not require abundant knowledge of LCA modeling， which is convenient for general engineering and technical personnel to calculate the carbon emission level of tunnel construction.
The calculation formulas for input and carbon emissions of each module arc provided. It also analyzes the parameter uncertainty， model uncertainty， and scenario u uncertainty of the carbon emissions from tunnel construction by the Monte Carlo method. Further， this book proposes the fitting model of carbon emissions of unit engineering quantity in tunnel construction， which benefits to simplify the calculation of carbon emissions.
This book is mainly aimed at engineering and technical personnel in the construction industry， especially tunnel and underground engineering， including tunnel design engineers; tunnel construction engineers， experts， and scholars; tunnel owners; management departments.
A tunnel is a transportation facility buried in the ground. Surrounding rock conditions are the critical basis for tunnel design and essential variables that affect carbon emissions from tunnel construction. The complex and changeable surrounding rock conditions require different design schemes， resulting in different tunnel construction emission levels. With surrounding rock conditions taken into consideration， this book is striving to establish accurate calculation models to analyze the carbon emission hotspots for tunnel construction and clarify differences in tunnel construction carbon emissions under different design parameters. Also， the tunnel's emission reduction potentials under changes in design parameters and emission factors are explored， which can provide scientific theoretical support for low-carbon design and scientific emission reduction in China's tunnel industry.
This book is mainly available to the engineering and technical personnel in the construction industry， especially tunnel and underground engineering， involving design engineers， construction engineers， scholars， tunnel owners， management departments.
