Minimizing of tunneling effect on existing infrastructure in Egypt

A set of parametric studies by using the Abaqus software is conducting to investigate the effective method to seal the CWO sewer from the tunneling process. These methods include: (i) two deep grouted walls, (ii) adjacent slurry piles, (iii) bored reinforced concrete piles assisted with slurry piles, and (iv) grouted block confining the twin tunnel wall. Based on the results of parametric studies. Most of the protective studied technique was effective on reducing the tunneling effect on the ground movements.
