    This document contains calculations of vertical and horizontal spring stiffness values for the foundations of various underground structures, including a shaft, chamber, and crossing. It provides parameters like soil type, height, geometry, modulus, and calculates values like subgrade reaction, stiffness at the border and center, and wall stiffness using methods by Vesic from 1961. For circular structures like shafts, the wall stiffness is an average between values at the border and corner.
