They rearrange earth materials, redirect flows of energy, alter the shape of the earth's surface, result in new fractures, folds and fault lines, and puff mineral traces into the atmosphere. The contribution to the construction of highways is described. The essence of successful seismic design is three-fold. GEOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS IN TUNNELLING Rocks may be broadly divided into two categories in relation to tunnelling: 1.consolidated and 2. unconsolidated or soft ground.
