Disclosed are a structure of an intermediate wall of a three arch
excavated tunnel, which effectively exhausts subterranean water from a
peripheral ground, and a method for constructing the tunnel. The method
comprising the steps of: (a) excavating an upper portion of a central
tunnel 10; (b) excavating a lower portion of the central tunnel 10; (c)
forming an intermediate wall 20 and grouting a gap formed in the
intermediate wall 20; (d) excavating an upper portion of a left main
tunnel 30; (e) excavating an upper portion of a right main tunnel 40; (f)
excavating a lower portion of the left main tunnel 30; (g) excavating a
lower portion of the right main tunnel 40; and (h) installing a drain
board 50 and a waterproof layer 60 and casting lining concrete 70 therein
so that the tunnel is easily drained through drain pipes 65 and residual
water pressure is eliminated.
