Tunnel engineering

designing tunnel support by matching the ground reaction curve of the rock with the support's stiffness and installation time.

In tunnel engineering, convergence-confinement method refers to designing tunnel support by matching the ground reaction curve of the rock with the support's stiffness and installation time. This meaning comes from Carranza-Torres (2000) in Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology.[1]
