Abstract:The initiation and reception of shields are major risk events for shield construction in water-rich and weak strata. Although the freezing method and the steel sleeve method receiving-shield tunneling technologies both have engineering applications, the environmental safety control effect cannot meet the construction requirements of water-rich soft soil. Considering the shield construction of a typical soft soil layer in Suzhou, China, as a research target, the applicability and safety of the freezing method c… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
