Question 1

A 5m diameter horizontal tunnel is to be excavated below below Calga Place, Bronte. The stresses expected around the tunnel have already been assessed and two points of interest are provided?

Question 2

Provide a critical review of the attached paper. You should focus on an assessment of the appropriateness of the:

• failure model;
• site investigation;
• laboratory testing;
• slope characterisation;
• slope analysis; and
• conclusions.

Students who just tell me what was done without any assessment of the quality of the work will receive very low marks. It is expected that you will be able to identify numerous issues with what was done. I have deliberately removed the identity info from the paper. Please do not search it up.
