Deep excavation practices in Singapore

In land-scarce Singapore, almost all the high-rise building construction and largescale major civil engineering works like Expressway and Mass Rapid Transit System (MRT) require deep excavation. Various types of vertical wall systems such as soldier pile walls, contiguous bored pile walls, secan...
