Abstract
This paper describes the principal methods employed in evaluating the observations from the large (36 foot diameter) tunnel test section at Garrison Dam and the major results therefrom-including load on the temporary support ribs, magnitude and distribution of load on the permanent concrete lining, and a better understanding of the inherent safety of a circular lining provided by ring action. Some new analytical methods are presented and their possible application is discussed.
