This guide for practising tunnelling engineers sets out the state of the art of composite sprayed concrete lined (SCL) tunnels. It covers the full process of design, materials specification, analysis, instrumentation and monitoring, and construction of composite SCL tunnels with a sprayed waterproofing membrane in soft ground. It is illustrated with worked examples, and considers the wide range of... Read more
