Pipe‐Jacking: State‐of‐the Art in UK and Europe
Publication: Journal of Transportation Engineering
Volume 109, Issue 1
Abstract
This article considers the development of pipe and box jacking techniques in the UK and Europe. There is particular reference to the installation of large rectangular units to serve as structural foundations for bridges, or as tunnels and culverts. Typical construction and design details of pipe joints and equipment are considered, and brief case histories of certain projects demonstrating the main techniques are given.
