This PhD thesis by Jose Ibarra Torres from the University of Waterloo examines the influence of rock quality on overbreak during tunnel excavation. Overbreak refers to the rock that breaks away beyond the theoretical excavation boundary. The thesis studies how different rock properties like strength, structure, and stress state affect the amount of overbreak that occurs. It aims to provide insights that can help engineers design tunnels that minimize unexpected rock fall and save on construction costs.
