eastwards of the main tunnel (Fig. 4b). After completion, this pilot
tunnel can be used as an emergency exit in case of an accident or a
fire in the main tunnel. During excavation, the geological situation
encountered was continuously projected onto the profile of the
main tunnel as a short-term prediction of discontinuities or weak
zones of the rock mass. The geometrical construction work was
complicated by the foUowing circumstances:

P r o c e s s i n g o f t h e s t r u c t u r a l data
If the data of the geological elements of a tunnel are codified for
one of the c o m p u t e r applications m e n t i o n e d above, they can additionally be processed without any extra work, provided that the
respective programms are available.
Stereographic projection
The c o m m o n procedure for the analysis of structural data is to
enter them into a stereographic projection of the unit sphere, mainly the (equal-angular) Wulff net or the (equal-area) Schmidt net. By
counting o u t the points within the 1%-circles, density diagrams are
produced. They indicate the location and scatter of joint orientations, etc. Most geological institutes are equipped with programs for
the automatic production of these stereographic projections, for
instance the program " S T R U K T " at the Swiss Federal Institute of
Technology. A special feature of this p r o g a m is the consequent
application of ENCODE / DECODE-Statements in the compiler
version F O R T R A N IV, that makes the single bits of the central
m e m o r y accessible. Thus the required central m e m o r y space is considerably reduced, so that the program is also suitable for smaller
data processors. Figs. 5b and 5c show two examples of stereographic
projections, i. e. a point diagram and a density diagram for the
same data set.

Fig. 6a
Data selection
A n o t h e r feature of the mentioned program is the possibility of
selecting the data by means of a code and rearranging them in
different ways, in order to receive more detailed and manifold data
interpretations. For instance, all major joints in the rock type A
between the tunnel stations X and Y can be selected and represented
in a density diagram, or a slow change of the strike or dip of the
schistosity planes in a tunnel m a y be shown by several successive
diagrams.
The original diameter of the computer-printed net is exactly 20
centirnetres, in order to match the normal projection grids with a
10 cm radius. These grids are copied onto a transparent sheet and
then p u t on the computer output. T h u s the exact values of joint
m a x i m a etc. are easy to determine.
Perspective blocks
Geologists usually are familiar with the structural diagrams m e n t i o n e d
and are able to interpret them without difficulty. For an outsider,
however, these representations are n o t very informative. Especially
for practical work at construction sites it is r e c o m m e n d e d that the
m o s t important elements (bedding planes, major joint systems etc.)
should be depicted on a perspective block.
Usually the block is shown in parallel perspective. The easiest
construction is the isometric projection of a cube. ]'his cube,
containing the structural elements to be shown, is viewed from a
point on the prolongated cubic diagonal. Unfortunately this representation is not opt.imal for the viewer, because the angle of
projection is abnormally steep and one edge of the cube coincides
with the diametraUy opposite edge.
By means of another program the shape of the perspective block
can be changed into a more favourable dimension. The angles of
view and of perspective are varied, and also the direction of the
zero azimuth (North) can rotate at will By changing these input
data the perspective block is turned and varied w i t h o u t additional
work, until the representation is satisfactory (Fig. 6 a - d ) . Constructing all these possible variations by hand is inefficient and wasteful.
Therefore, in this case, the computer is considered to be a useful
and necessary instrument.

Introduction
At the close of 1972, theGeological Survey of Canada had accumulated, on magnetic tapes, geoscientific data for 28 Canadian cities.
These consisted of soil data obtained mainly from private consultants, city engineers, architects, government agencies, etc . . . .
These data banks have been compiled under the direction of the
G. S. C. by local soil consultants.
