SYNOPSIS
The talk will explore the challenges, complexities, and benefits of dewatering in tunnelling and utility projects. It will share examples of how dewatering can enable difficult and complex underground structures to be constructed safely and cost effectively. Using case studies from Europe, North America, the Middle East and Asia, this talk will illustrate how dewatering techniques can be adapted to suit challenging soil conditions in dense urban environments and provide clean and sustainable solutions for ground support.
