The aim of this paper is to review some of the particular design and construction issues presented when excavating or tunnelling in tropically weathered rocks and soils. Because of the great variety of rocks subject to tropical weathering, it would be difficult to provide an adequate overview on a broad scope. It is therefore proposed to limit this review to selected weathered rocks and construction work of which the

Feb 13, 2021 · Deep excavations are intensively carried out in many cities in China and other countries. One of the major loadings in such construction work is the water pressure, and great effort is required to assess the seepage problem and the corresponding water pressure on the retaining wall for a good design and construction. Different methods used for the seepage analysis are discussed in this paper
