Non linear seismic performance of smart tunnel

The storm water management and road tunnel (SMART) project in Kuala Lumpur (KL) involves the design and construction of a road and drainage tunnel. A portion of tunnel is designed and constructed for dual purpose; firstly, a double deck road tunnel to serve the increasing volume of traffic in the bu...
