Abstract
The limits in the accuracy of the prediction of the geological architecture and rock
mass characteristic require an observational approach for the safe and economical construc-
tion of tunnels. This especially applies for tunnels in weak ground and/or sensitive environ-
ments. It has become common practice to assign a geotechnical engineer to difficult sites to
continuously evaluate the geotechnical situation and assist in the routine decision making
process. Appropriate site organization and advanced methods for monitoring data evaluation
and interpretation are a precondition for efficient work on site. The paper deals with the basic
requirements to successfully implement an observational approach, the respective tools for
monitoring, and monitoring data evaluations
