Summary

RECENT DECADES HAVE SEEN MAJOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE BUILDING OF SUBTERRANEAN STRUCTURES. AS THE BEGINNING, THE PRINCIPAL JUSTIFICATIONS WERE THE HIGH DENSITY OF EXISTING DEVELOPMENTS AS WELL AS THE LIMITED AVAILABILITY OF NEW BUILDING SITE LATER, CONSIDERATIONS OF COST-EFFECTIVENESS AND CLIMATE-CONTROL TECHNOLOGY ALSO CONTRIBUTED TO THE SPREAD OF SUBTERRANEAN CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS. EXPERIENCE GAINED WITH EXISTING SUBTERRANEAN STRUCTURES AND THEIR OPERATIONAL MAINTENANCE PROVE UNAMBIGUOUSLY THAT SAVINGS OF 40-60% IN HEATING COSTS AND OF MORE THAN 90% IN AIR-CONDITIONING COSTS ARE ACHIEVABLE. THE EXPANSION OF THIS TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION, HOWEVER, BROUGHT WITH IT NEW CHALLENGES FOR CLIMATE-CONTROL INSTALLATIONS.
