Statement of Problem
Tunnel Diameter = 5m
Phreatic surface = 3m below ground surface
MATERIAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL LAYERS IN
TUNNEL
MATERIAL PROPERTIES OF PLATE
CALCULATION PHASES
• 3 calculation phases will be defined
• PHASE-01
• Select plastic analysis, staged construction and click define and activate the
building, anchors and toe plates.
• PHASE =02
• Plastic calculations, reset displacement to zero, staged construction and define
and then activate the tunnel linning.
• Phase-03
• There will be some contraction due to dewatering and tunnel lining
