| Abstract | This thesis mainly evaluated support requirements in tunnel excavations for
grouting and drainage purposes at Tha Dan Dam. Rock mass classifications were
carried out by the RMR and Q system. In the studied area, rocks were commonly
complex volcanic rock and rock mass was predominantly of fair to good class. Rock
supports for these tunnels were initially designed using both the RMR and Q-System
rock classifications. However, both designs were not used and the actual support
installations were made according to the estimation of the engineer. These rock
supports designs were compared and the actual supports were also compared with
equivalent rock load around the tunnels. The loosening rock loads were predicted by
the RMR and Q values. |
