These Proceedings include: tunnel design methods, influences on foundations, bored tunnels, mitigating measures for and numerical analysis of tunnelling and deep excavations, monitoring of underground construction and deep excavations.

A valuable source of reference on the current practices of analysis, design and construction of tunnels and underground structures in soft ground. This collection of reviewed papers covers a wide range of tunnelling practice, from deep excavations in Singapore to the construction of a new metro line in Barcelona. The international scope of the contributors makes this a truly comprehensive collection of work on the geotechnical aspects of soft ground excavation.
