About this document

Time-Dependent Deformations in GTA Tunnels by ANGEL CORTEZ OLIVAREZ is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The paper discusses time-dependent deformations (TDD) in shafts and tunnels of the Greater Toronto Area, focusing on factors influencing these deformations such as excavation-induced stress relief, rock porewater salinity, and clay content. It presents case studies from projects like the Billy Bishop Airport Pedestrian Tunnel and Hanlan Feedermain, detailing measurements and mechanisms of TDD. The findings highlight the importance of understanding swelling potential and in-situ stress states to predict the
