Jiang, Xi (author), Zhang, X. (author), Wang, Shuai (author), Bai, Yun (author), Huang, Baoshan (author)Pipe jacking has been the dominant trenchless technology for constructing small (\2 m) to medium-diameter (\4 m) tunnels. Uncertainties and construction difficulties increase significantly when the diameter of the tunnel exceeds 4 m. This paper presents a case study of the largest concrete pipe-jacking tunnel project in the world, the...journal article 2022
