Abstract

In this paper, prediction method of final displacement was examined from measured displacement in initial stage of excavation as analyzed measured data by statistical method and exponential function and linear function were used to find out the displacement of initial unmeasured section in order to analyze the entire behavior of tunnel including unmeasured displacement in initial stage.
