Carinthian cut and cover tunnelling method which combines cut & cover and NATM tunnel excavation method has increased the interest. Design and construction of arch concrete have been increased, but there is no applicable standards for arch concrete. Therefore, in this study numerical analysis was performed to propose standards for the Carinthian tunnelling method considering a variety of conditions such as ground conditions, tunnel overburden thickness, thickness of backfill, and overburden surface slope angle changes, linear regression equations derived to classify and organize a rational, economical, and safe Carinthian cut and cover tunneling method based proposed.
