“…follows the example of others (e.g. West et al 1981) in embracing the total process of determining the nature of the ground in respects relevant to the options for construction, while 'ground investigation' is defined as that part of 'site investigation' which entails geological and geophysical investigations commissioned expressly for the project.

“…as a percentage of cost, or as a ratio of aggregate length of borehole to length of tunnel. Thus Legget and Hatheway (1988) suggest a range of 0.3-2.0% of total cost while West et al (1981) suggest Stage II s.i. (Table 4.1) as representing 0.5-3.0% for the United Kingdom.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
