Term Definition

Forepoling (Spilling) A ground improvement measure carried out by inserting bars, rods or
tubes at the face so as to form a splayed arch ahead of the tunnel. It can
involve areas of jet grouting or ground freezing. Previously, the term was
used more narrowly. It related to polling boards driven on a splay ahead of
the face of an excavation.
