    This document summarizes the design of a concrete tunnel based on AASHTO and ACI code standards. It provides input data such as concrete strength, rebar properties, tunnel dimensions, soil pressures, and reinforcing details. A finite element analysis was performed to determine forces along the tunnel. The results are presented in a table with point locations, pressures, moments and shear. Design checks were performed for axial capacity, flexure capacity and shear capacity and confirmed to meet code requirements. The design is deemed adequate based on the analysis and checks summarized.
