       Notes - general: Abstract: Measurements showed that the fac indexing
                        system developed at the tunnelling trials at Chinnor
                        could be used satisfactorily under the different
                        conditions and in the different chalk of the chalk was
                        found to be 6.7 MN/m2 (970 psi).  The average
                        discontinuity spacing was 0.33 m, and most of the
                        discontinuities were sub-parallel to the tunnel axis
                        indicating that they have resulted from the excavation
                        process - either by stress changes of weathering
                        effects.
