FRC has been used in precast segmental tunnel linings in Asia since 2005 beginning with Singapore in temporary segments.
In 2012, the first permanent use of FRC in precast segmental tunnel linings finally began with Contract 933 in the Downtown Line Phase 3 in Singapore.
Since then, FRC in precast segmental tunnel linings has been used for projects in Malaysia, Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore
