Description
A preliminary study to identify the potential location of the ET Sardinia and the geometry of the underground tunnels based on available geological data and in-situ surveys was conducted. Different geometry configurations (Triangle and L-Topology) have been analysed using digital terrain models and deformation data from satellite data in order to investigate the present conditions at the surface facilities. By taking into account the accessibility and safety conditions of the surface infrastructures (descenderies to the underground labs) and the optimization of the excavation works in light of the geological setting, this study foreseen a deeper investigations to assess the final configuration. Further analysis and advanced surveying activity to be conducted in the future steps for the ET Sardinia design are also deliniated.
