This volume contains a collection of more than 100 papers, 5 reports and a special lecture presented at the Second International Symposium on Geotechnical Aspects of Underground Construction in Soft Ground held at the Tokyo International Exhibition Centre in 1999. The general reports provide a quick review of the papers on the topics categorised for this symposium. This volume constitutes a valuable source of references on the current practice of analysis, design and construction of bored tunnels and braced excavations in soft ground.
Gathers some 100 papers, five reports, and a special lecture submitted by researchers and industry professionals from some 25 countries who were involved with the design and construction of underground structures in soft ground. Topics covered include geotechnical aspects of bored tunnels such as NATM tunneling, TBM and shield tunneling, braced excavations, modelling and prediction, and the recent developments of compensation grouting techniques. The general session reports provide a quick review of the papers and the special lecture provides a review of the seismic design of underground structures in soft ground. Lacks a subject index.
