  CERN civil en­gi­neers are heav­i­ly in­volved in study­ing sev­er­al major pro­jects to suc­ceed/com­ple­ment the LHC. In­fras­truc­ture works typ­i­cal­ly rep­re­sent one third of the cost of major physics pro­jects, so it's crit­i­cal that the con­struc­tion costs are well un­der­stood from the con­cep­tu­al stage. For ex­am­ple, CERN are study­ing in­fras­truc­ture re­quire­ments for the Lin­ear Col­lid­er (CLIC & ILC) and the LHeC pro­jects. This poster pre­sents some of the key civil en­gi­neer­ing chal­lenges faced in such large scale pro­jects.
