883391 Some aspects of groundwater control by ground freezing and grmting metheds Harris, J S; Pollard, C In: Grmmdwater in F.~i~eriag Geology (papers to the 21st Amuml Conference of the F~i~eri~g Group of the Geological Society, S&e.~i~ld, 1.$-19 Septemlk,r, 1985) P455466. Publ London: Geological Society, 1986 Before commencing a shaft sinking project, hydrological and geophysical testing and core examination are carried out to identify the water hearing strata and select appropriate groundwater control methods. Three techniques are discussed, grouting to reduce the permeability of the water bearing strata, construction of an impermeable barrier by ground freezing, and the construction of pressure relief wells, which create preferential paths for groundwater flow and reduce uncontrolled inflow into the excavation.

Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1987 Vacuum dewatering may be used in areas of complex hydrology or to protect construction works in areas where conventional methods are inapplicable. Theoretical analysis of groundwater flow in vacuum dewatering is presented. Practical data from projects to dewater and stabilisc low permeability soils are given. Notable increases in shear strength for landslide protection or stabilisation of ground around excavations are evident. 883393 Cmmndwater i a v ~ and ¢mmfl for rite Dairy lamells Carter, P G; Forsyth, F M Proe Nistll Faw~mm Cecflrct~e on Soil Mcelm~s aml Fmmdadew ~ , Grmmcl'~ter Ejects is Gemt~deal ~ , ~ , Jl Auf-J ~ p t 1987 VI, P125-128. Publ Rotterdam: A A Balkema, 1987 Sewer tunnels were driven through permeable gravels and sensitive silts beneath a railway without interrupting tral~. Pumping tests suggested that dewatering the tunnels was not feasible. Clay-cement and chemical grouts were injected to fill the relatively large and small pore spaces in the gravels respectively. Compressed air was used to minimise groundwater flow and prevent heave of soft silt in the invert. The tunnels were successfully completed.

~ Labs PoRts Cbawsces N150-151, July-Aug~SeptOct 1987, P96-108 There are many disused underground chalk and limestone quarries, dating back over hundreds of years, in the Normandy region. The geology, distribution and form of these cavities, and modifications caused by groundwater flow and time dependent deformation, are first described. The forms and consequences of surface failure associated with ~ r ground quarries are considered. Methods of cavity location and risk evaluation are examined. The value of systematic collation of regional data is emphasised.

Published data from the UK and Europe have been s t y , Due to the very wide rmage of geological conditions encountered and the limited depth of investigation of particular aspects, some contradictory conclusions have been drawn. The need for further work is emphasised.
