Increasing population growth and increased traffic in the metropolitan cities is an undeniable reality. Therefore to improve urban traffic conditions, construction of subway lines is a priority for macro policy of development, But because of the special working conditions in underground tunnels, tunnel construction always faces many hazards that lack of attention to them can damage the project.
