Timber heading is a traditional horizontal tunnelling technique which uses timber to support the tunnel. The tunnel is constructed by hand using timber sets to support the excavation. A timber heading is usually used when open cut isn not an option and HDD or auger boring are not suitable. This could be for a number of reasons from maintaining access to the services in the tunnel through to needing to connect into an existing utility system. The pipe is then fed through by hand after the tunnel is constructed.
