Lunchtime lecture series #41
This instalment of the Lunchtime lecture series will focus on 'Towards BIM-based tunnel operation & maintenance' in collaboration with ITACOSUF.
This instalment of the lunchtime lecture series will focus on the latest trends in BIM and digital twin implementation for the improvement of tunnel operation and maintenance. The aim is to provide some practical examples through case studies and to share key strategies and best practices for tunnel management organizations looking to accelerate their digital transformation efforts in the field of operational safety of underground facilities.
The episode will feature four lectures and will finish with a Q&A with all speakers. It will begin at 13:00 CET.
- Introduction - Dr. Eric Premat, ITACOSUF
- A powerful approach to optimize tunnel operation and maintenance - Ben Van den Horn, ARCADIS, ITACOSUF General Secretary, AG1 leader
- BIM implementation for asset management: lessons learnt from an experiment - Dr Simon Charlemagne, CETU
- Tunnel operation & digital twins - Dr Götz Vollmann, Bochum University, AG3 leader

Managing risks, sustainability and innovation in rock tunnelling
ITACET training course at the WTC 2025 in Stockholm!
The WTC 2025 and the ITACET Foundation have the pleasure of inviting you to the ITACET training course that has become a traditional part of the annual World Tunnel Congress. The 2025 WTC training course will focus on 'Managing risks, sustainability and innovation in rock tunnelling' and will take place on the Friday and Saturday before the WTC, on the 9thand 10th
May 2025. The prime goal is to attract senior/young professionals as well as university students, with an interesting and useful programme and world class speakers. The issues discussed will be of interest to professionals internationally.
The program will begin with a focus on advanced risk management in tunnel construction, exploring the latest strategies and tools to mitigate uncertainties and optimize design processes. It will then examine the importance of sustainability in underground projects, discussing innovative methods to ensure that tunnelling practices are environmentally responsible and resilient.
