Quantitative index of leakage distress in railway tunnels.
| Distress grade | Classification of distress | Physical truth of lining leakage |
| 1 | Slight (c) | Leakage water corrodes rails and worsens the track bed condition. Curing cycle is shortened. Distress will develop to level B. | 2 | Serious (B) | Dripping and seeping water in tunnels which cause track bed frost boiling. | 3 | More serious (AI) | Tunnel vault emits water and drops into a line. Rising soil is serious, which affects the normal operation. | 4 | Extremely serious (AA) | Water accumulates in the electric traction section. Tunnel vault leakage flows to overhead lines directly. |
