Design verification activities in the Exploratory Studies Facility Starter Tunnel at Yucca Mountain
In situ design verification activities are being conducted in the North Ramp Starter Tunnel of the Yucca Mountain Project Exploratory Studies Facility. These activities include: monitoring the construction blasting, evaluating the damage to the rock mass associated with construction, assessing the rock mass quality surrounding the tunnel, monitoring the performance of the installed ground support, and monitoring the stability of the tunnel. In this paper, examples of the data that have been collected and preliminary conclusions from the data are presented.
