A Study for Minimizing Wetland's Influence by Tunnel Excavation

터널 굴착에 따른 고원습지 영향 최소화 방안 연구

In this paper, we have studied the expected problems when tunnel is excavated under the wetland, and described the measure to maintain the wetland's ecosystem environment. Firstly, we investigated the wetland's ecosystem such as plants and animals, and executed ground investigation including in-situ tests and geophysical survey. And we analyzed the foreign similar cases for tunnel excavation near the wetland. We also evaluated the runoff and infiltration quantity of groundwater and hydraulic behaviour of rock mass and wetland by numerical analysis. Finally, we established the effective measure to minimize the ecosystem's influence by tunnel excavation.
