heal.abstract	The N-E portal of the Mesochora Road Tunnel is excavated in a low strength rock, composed mainly of very jointed limestone and chert layers within a soft clay matrix. Forepoling, steel frames, shotcrete, and invert ring closure near the face, are among the primary support measures. The evaluation of the tunnel structural response is tried analytically and numerically. Construction proceeded successfully. Monitoring of the load on the frames provided an indication for the load acting on the primary support.	en
