Geotechnical Aspects of Underground Construction in Soft Ground is a comprehensive compilation of 112 papers, the Fujita Lecture, three Special Lectures, and the Bright Spark Lecture presented at the Tenth International Symposium on Geotechnical Aspects of Underground Construction in Soft Ground, held in Cambridge, United Kingdom, from June 27 to 29, 2022. This second edition features four comprehensive general reports that delve into the symposium's themes. This esteemed symposium is a continuation of a series that commenced in New Delhi in 1994, followed by subsequent gatherings in London (1996), Tokyo (1999), Toulouse (2002), Amsterdam (2005), Shanghai (2008), Rome (2011), Seoul (2014), and Sao Paulo (2017). Organized by the Geotechnical Research Group at the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with the Technical Committee TC204 of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), this symposium brought together experts from around the world to explore the intricate geotechnical challenges associated with underground construction in soft ground.

The contributions in Geotechnical Aspects of Underground Construction in Soft Ground encompass a wide range of topics, including field case studies, sensing technologies, monitoring, physical and numerical modeling, seismic response, design, and ground improvement for underground construction. These contributions originate from over 25 countries, highlighting the global expertise and collaboration in this field.

The general reports provide an overview of the papers submitted to the symposium, organized into four technical sessions. These reports encompass a diverse range of subjects, covering developments in geotechnical aspects of underground construction, tunneling, and ground. Additionally, the proceedings include the written versions of five invited lectures, which cover a broad spectrum of topics, ranging from advancements in geotechnical engineering to innovative tunneling techniques and ground-related issues.

Geotechnical Aspects of Underground Construction in Soft Ground serves as a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and practitioners involved in underground construction projects. It provides a comprehensive understanding of the technical challenges, innovative solutions, and best practices in this field. The symposium's rich content and international participation contribute to the advancement of geotechnical knowledge and its practical application in underground construction worldwide.
