This paper describes the nature of ground movement observed during construction of the Jubilee Line Extension at St James's Park and beneath Elizabeth House for different stages of tunnelling in London Clay, using open-face shield construction and sprayed concrete linings respectively. Volume loss is defined as the volume of ground loss as a proportion of the final tunnel volume and is measured in the plane of the tunnel. Volume losses corresponding to different phases of tunnelling at St James's Park and beneath Elizabeth House are identified in the paper. A companion paper presents a new approach to estimating volume losses for each phase of open-face tunnelling in London Clay.
