Analysis and prediction of thrust in using slurry pipe jacking method

Pipe jacking is a name for a method to excavate a tunnel by pushing pipe into the ground from an especial pit.Size of tunnels in this method is different from under 900mm (microtunneling) to more than 3000mm.

Pipe jacking, in its traditional form, has occasionally been used for short railways, roads, rivers, and other projects for construction work near existing facilities.
