Tunnels in squeezing clay-rich rocks

Squeezing ground conditions, which can lead to severe loads in tunnels, have historically been associated with the presence of clay minerals in the ground. Over the years, many methodologies have been proposed to predict squeezing in tunnels based on tunnel depth, in situ stress, ground mineralogy,...
