Technology Standard of Pipe Jacking

This book summarizes the technical method and construction process of pipe jacking. It has a total of 17 chapters and one appendix. It includes how to prepare the pipe jacking construction, how to choose the pipe and equipment for jacking, how to choose the engineering environment, how to do the geological survey before jacking, how to design the working pit, what's the procedure of pipe jacking, how to do the measurement and monitoring during jacking, how to do the treatment and acceptance after jacking, and so on. Appendix contains reference tables for pipe jacking archives, which might aid readers in understanding the book's content. This book's language is simple to read, and it has a wealth of graphics. Even those without a foundational understanding of pipe jacking could read and comprehend it with ease. This regulation could be the fundamental discipline for pipeline jacking projects. It is the important basis and criterion for the design, construction, management, inspection, and acceptance of pipeline jacking.




Zhiguo Wu is the chief engineer of Beijing Zhongxuan Municipal Engineering Co., Ltd and the member of the Professional Committee of the China Society of Trenchless Technology. He is proficient in mechanical pipe-jacking construction technology, has unique insights into foundation pit support, grouting drag reduction, soil improvement, settlement control, and other aspects of pipe-jacking construction, and has successfully solved various difficulties encountered in the project many times.


Yong Chen is a professor-level senior engineer and currently serves as the deputy director of the Chief Engineer's Office of Fujian Dongchen Geotechnical Foundation Engineering.
In 1996, he began to study trenchless engineering and successfully developed, popularized, and promoted it in complex geological areas of Fujian. In 2007 and 2008, he was awarded the title of 'Outstanding Entrepreneur in National Engineering Quality Management' by the 'Policy Research Center of the Ministry of Construction' for two consecutive years.


Zhaoquan Wang is the general manager and a senior engineer of Shaoxing Panshi Foundation Co., Ltd. He is the member of the Professional Committee of the China Society of Trenchless Technology. In 2000, he began to engage in the theoretical and practical research of trenchless pipe-jacking construction technology. In 2001, he co-founded a Sino-Japanese joint venture trenchless construction enterprise. By the end of 2003, he successively introduced 12 sets of ISE mud-water balance pipe-jacking machines, trained a large number of first-line pipe-jacking machine operators by using the self-writing teaching materials, and cooperated with Japanese technical experts to develop a mud-water balance pipe-jacking machine suitable for Chinese soil layers. In 2004, Shaoxing Panshi Foundation Co., Ltd. was established. He has published 16 academic papers, and participated in the compilation of 'Pipe-jacking and Micro-tunnel Construction Acceptance Code' and 'Trenchless Engineering'.


Chunwen Yan is the deputy director of the Technical Center of China Geological Equipment Group Co., Ltd, the director of the editorial department of 'Geological Equipment', the professor-level senior engineer, the expert on government special allowance (engineering technology) of the State Council, the director of the Professional Committee of the China Society of Trenchless Technology, the executive director of the Geological Instrument Branch of China Instrument and Control Society, and the member of China Democratic League.
He systematically researches the new technology of trenchless underground pipeline construction, solves the problem of 'lock road' in underground pipeline construction for a long time, and makes fruitful pioneering work for the application, promotion, and development of trenchless technology in China. He has played an important role in the establishment of the Professional Committee of the China Society of Trenchless Technology and has made outstanding contributions to discipline construction and talent training.
