Norra Länken 3D Stability Analysis

Project Description

The Northern Link (Norra Länken) will be part of a major road system surrounding the Stockholm metropolitan area.

Itasca's Role

As part of the design work for this project, Itasca Consultants AB and Itasca Consultants S.A.S. has performed a three-dimensional numerical study to analyze of the effect of a large surface load being applied on top of a tunnel intersection with low (4 m) rock cover.
