| Abstract | The seminar on "Construction Problems, Techniques and Solutions" held at the First Chicago Center in Chicago on October 20-22, 1975, was organized to focus on anticipated construction problems of the Chicago Central Area Transit Project to include underground construction techniques, new technology, ground engineering techniques (underpinning, dewatering, grouting), and involved an exchange of experiences among owners, design teams, contractors, and other pertinent agencies. Because of the continuing requests for seminar materials 19 papers prepared for the seminar follow in their entirety. The authors are identified by their titles and associations as of October 1975. Additionally, a complete summary of the panel discussion held during the last afternoon of the seminar and moderated by Mr. Nelson, CUTD Executive Director, is furnished because of the pertinent views that were expressed therein. |
