A REPORT ON THE PRACTICE OF CHEMICAL STABILIZATION AROUND SOFT GROUND TUNNELS IN ENGLAND AND EUROPE - OBSERVATIONS MADE DURING A THREE WEEK TRIP

Over the period August 26, 1975, to September 13, 1975, Dr. G. W. Clough visited England, France, and Germany to discuss and observe chemical stabilization projects being performed in conjunction with soft ground tunneling. This visit was sponsored by the U.S. DOT through the Research Contract No. OS-50123 for which Dr. Clough is the principal investigator. The research program involves a general study of the technique of chemical stabilization around soft ground tunnels.
