TUNCONSTRUCT is a multi-disciplinary research project that promotes the development and implementation of European technological innovation in underground construction. Bustling at its core is the vigorous participation of some of Europe´s best recognized names in the underground engineering industry.
The project´s 41 partners, from 11 European countries, integrate not only the on-the-field engineering experience and technical know-how of the industry, but also the research capabilities and conceptual innovation of the academic sector.
TUNCONSTRUCT is fully committed to contributing to an increased quality of life for Europeans by reducing construction time and cost of planned and future underground infrastructures.
The project is co-financed by the European Commission, under its 6th framework program, which provides 54% of its 26 million Euro quadrennial budget. Coordination rests on the Graz University of Technology, Austria.
