Chapter 204 Underground Transportation Network

And this is only for the current engineering team.

With Su Wu's current industrial productivity.

If you really want, it would not be difficult to expand the size of the engineering team several times or even dozens of times in a short period of time.

This is also the initial time.

Su Wu saw the technology of fast cement.

Subconsciously, I think that after lighting it up, I won’t have to worry about lack of space anymore.

In addition to the core project of expanding the farmyard.

With a reserve of 700 million tons of fast cement and an engineering team that can expand its scale without limits anytime and anywhere.

The underground transportation network once daunted Su Wu because it consumed too much resources.

It can also be put on the agenda.

By then, when the underground transportation network is completed.

Su Wu's farmhouse and several other affiliated shelters will be completely connected as a whole.

Become a real underground kingdom.

It has a stronger development speed and the ability to deal with natural disasters.

As for how to build the underground transportation network.

Su Wu also had a preliminary plan.

The first are the underground passages that will form the transportation network.

It is further subdivided into passenger channels and material transport channels.

There is no need to explain much about the passenger passage.

It is mainly used to transport people and its construction standards are relatively high.

But now it’s the end of the world, no matter how high the standards are, they can’t be that high.

At least it's certainly not to the level of the subway.

In Su Wu's plan.

The passenger passage will be a tunnel one meter wide and 1.7 meters high, allowing only one-way traffic.

Residents of the shelter can travel through the tunnels on a vehicle similar to a children's train at a playground.

This kind of transportation efficiency will not be very high.

A 20-meter-long miniature train can only carry about twenty people at a time.

But still the same sentence.

In doomsday, resources, safety, and so on are more precious than people’s time.

Transferring through the passenger channel can at least ensure that it is much safer than passing through the ground.

If the efficiency is low.

This can also be compensated by running 24 hours a day and increasing the number of round-trip flights.

Moreover, between the various subsidiary shelters.

Generally speaking, there is not so much demand for personnel transfer.

There will be no travel, family visits, etc.

Most of them are job transfers between each other.

In this situation.

The miniature train is sufficient for use and even has enough capacity to take on some of the work of transporting supplies.

Compared with the passenger passage, the material passage is even smaller.

No need to carry passengers.

General resources.

Basically everything can be loaded using a cargo box with a width and height no more than 0.5 meters.

The only difference is that it is shipped in batches or disassembled into parts, and then reassembled after being transported to the destination.

Under this strict restriction on channel size.

The time and cost of Su Wu digging and building the passage will be reduced to the greatest extent.

There is absolutely no need for lengthy construction.

"According to the strength of quick cement."

"The thickness of the channel wall should be kept at 5 mm."

"After all, the tunnel itself is not very big, and the pressure it bears is completely different from that of a regular underground train tunnel."

“At the same time, as a passage, it doesn’t need to be as strict as building a shelter.”

"Even if there is an accident, the loss from a single accident won't be that big."

"If you calculate it this way." "If you convert the gravel truck into a micro-tunnel machine of the corresponding size, it should be able to dig about one meter in one minute."

“Then we will carry out construction from both ends simultaneously.”

"It is estimated that we can dig a nearly 3-kilometer-long supply channel in one day."

"The passenger channel is slower, but it's still nearly 1 kilometer long."

"Also, consider that the supply passage does not require air."

"It can be completely vacuumed."

"This way, at least the transportation speed can be faster."

"We can go a step further and switch to a magnetic levitation transport mode in the future."

In front of the console, Su Wu uses artificial intelligence.

A simple calculation was made on the cost and time of building passenger and material passages.

It was found that this is due to the strict restrictions on channel size.

Both the cost and construction progress were far lower than the initial estimate.

This made him become even bolder.

Directly on the map.

At the same time, plans to build five passenger passages and seven material passages were launched.

In one go, the farmyard and all the attached shelters were connected in series.

"The plan is complete."

"Next, we should start to realize them one by one."

Su Wu marked on the map.

Turn your attention to the newly expanded area on the 8th underground floor, which was completed a week ago.

It was according to the original plan.

Those areas will still become testing grounds for simulating various terrains and extreme environments.

But now, quick cement, a heavyweight basic material, has been developed.

Then we can only use part of that space.

Used to give priority to the construction of production lines for the production of fast cement.

"Concrete crusher, high-temperature distillation ball, reactor——"

Su Wu added the equipment of the production line to the task list of the manufacturing center one by one.

And unceremoniously cut in line and listed them all as the first items to be manufactured.

Compared to producing fast cement.

Even the creation of capsule grids can be postponed.

After all, there is no place to live.

Those with serious infections can also stay in their original shelters.

And produce quick cement earlier.

Su Wu could speed up the expansion of the shelter space sooner, thereby increasing the number of plantations.

To alleviate the daily food needs of the population which has now expanded to more than one million.

Of course, this kind of queue-jumping can only be used occasionally.

Leaving the seriously infected people in other shelters will be fine for a short period of time.

If the time is slightly extended, problems are bound to arise.

Those seriously infected people, in the eyes of the top management of other shelters.

It’s almost the same source of pollution as food waste.

Once the speculation that Su Wu was no longer able to handle it arose, it was hard to say that he would not do something extreme.

“Wait until the rapid cement production line is built.”

"Let's first increase the construction efficiency of the engineering team to the maximum of 1000 square meters a day."

"Then start from the 7th underground level."

“All the extra space is being used to fill plantations for fast-growing food.”

"From now on, we will gradually close some of the plantations at Jingyuan Shelter and Zhou Xiwu Shelter."

"Then we will reduce the number of broiler farms by about two-thirds."

“Free up space and continue to build standard dormitories using ordinary cement.”

"Also, the two medium-sized shelters of Qing Ning and Li Rong can do the same."

“All of it was used to build dormitories.”
