Face Support Pressure

Face Support Pressure is the controlled pressure applied at the excavation face of a tunnel, typically through a pressurized fluid or mechanized shield, to maintain equilibrium between the in-situ ground stresses and induced stresses, thereby preventing soil collapse, excessive deformation, or surface settlement during tunneling.
