Studying the evidence
Series: New Civil Engineer ; 12 October 2000, 40(1)Publication details: 2000Subject(s): Summary: Looks at how the construction of the Jubilee Line Extension (JLE) has created a vital case study for future urban tunnelling. The challenge of protecting a number of landmark buildings on route was overcome successfully, and evidence of using the pioneering compensation grouting as a safeguard was collected. This evidence will be made available in a book of 30 case histories of buildings along the JLE route, which is based on a CIRIA led research project "Subsidence damage to buildings: prediction, protection and repair". On a similar theme, a conference is to be held at Imperial College, London on 17 and 18 July 2001 entitled "The response of buildings to excavation-induced ground movements".| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
