... for the site formation works on a mountain ridge. The cut slopes were designed based on limited soil investigation data in the thick tropical rainforest. A small scale landslide took place immediately after the excavation started on one of the slopes. To find out the cause of the landslide, an additional soil...

... Volcanic Group on the northwest side. The maximum overburden is approximately 57 meters and the excavating ground is mainly composed of debris-avalanche deposits which means volcanic deposits produced by the orogenic movements and the eruptive activity from Yotei Volcano. This unconsolidated and sandy...

... Abstract In the excavation of rock tunnels, rocks behind the face have to be known in advance, especially in the case that rocks like serpentinite, which would cause squeezing while tunneling, might exist. A long advancing boring from the working face gives such information with cuttings...

A concep- tual image of excavation `scale effects' is shown in Figure 4, to illustrate the likely relative effects of massive columnar basalt...
