Seepage Force Impacts on Tunnel Design by biles1234 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes a study on seepage forces in tunneling. The study examined: 1) Seepage forces acting on tunnel linings for drainage-type tunnels compared to waterproof-type tunnels using numerical modeling. Seepage forces increased stresses on drainage-type linings by up to 30% compared to hydrostatic pressures. 2) Seepage forces acting on tunnel faces and their impact on stability. Numerical modeling found average seepage pressures on faces were 18.2-47.6 kPa for drainage tunnels and 21.9-62.4 k
