520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Describes how London academic, John Burland, has stopped the Leaning Tower of Pisa from collapsing whithout destroying its famous lean. Highlights the various solutions considered before the team opted for a technique called soil extraction, which works by creating lots of little tunnels to create a controlled form of subsidence. Contrasts Burland's approach in Pisa with his work on stablising Big Ben, needed following the excavations for the extension of the Jubliee Line.
