"NTERACT"

A computer program has been developed and successfully tested on recent tunnel projects in the US, to solve support-rock mass deformational interaction problems. The program may be used to perform structural design analyses of various shaped tunnel linings, including sprayed concrete and pre-cast concrete linings, steel arches and other support systems, subject to complex external loading. Typical results of a support-rock interaction analysis recently conducted on a horse-shoe shaped tunnel section configuration of the Straight Creek vehicular tunnel in Colorado, US, are given in the enclosed appendix.
