Excavated Diameter of Tunnel D= 6.35 m 6 m
Excavated Radius of Tunnel r= 3.18 m
Depth to Tunnel Axis zo = 25.02 m
Cover to Crown of Tunnel C= 21.85 m
where
y is the distance of the the point to the centre line of the two tunnels (L/2).
yL is distance of the point to the axis of the left tunnel.
yR is distance of the point to the axis of the right tunnel.
