Tunnel ground improvement: What is at stake?

The construction of tunnels in poor soil or in varied soil conditions provides for a variety of unique challenges. When building a metro or irrigation tunnel, it is necessary to account for:

The structural sustainability against water pressure,

The soil reinforcement using grout injections and clouting (if a tunnel is built with a traditional method).

The cross-passages to create connections between two tunnels,

Adequate protection for the surrounding buildings and underground infrastructure networks along the tunnel

Convergence areas between two tunnels: where ground stability is concerned, it is of absolute necessity to make sure that the construction of one tunnel will not impact the construction of the other.
