Yellow River-Crossing Project in South-to-North Water Transfer approach through the use of shield tunnel and its north bank departure shaft adopts diaphragm wall as enclosure structure. The depth of continuous wall of its shielding starting shaft is 76.6m, which is the deepest at present in china. The continuous diaphragm wall travels through the layer of silver sand, medium sand and loam from top to bottom, where the geological conditions are poor with large difficulty of construction. This paper sets forth construction of guide wall, reinforcing measures before construction, Trenching process, groove segment connections, innovative technologies of uplifting huge reinforcing cage and so on, which will provide guidance and lessons for the similar project

Thermo-active diaphragm walls that combine load bearing ability with a ground source heat pump (GSHP) are considered to be one of the new technologies in geotechnical engineering. Despite the vast range of potential applications, current thermo-active diaphragm wall designs have very limited use from a geotechnical aspect. This paper investigates the wall–soil interaction behaviour of a thermo-active diaphragm wall by conducting a thermo-hydro-mechanical finite element analysis. The GSHP operates by circulating cold coolant into the thermo-active diaphragm wall during winter. Soil contraction and small changes in the earth pressures acting on the wall are observed. The strain reversal effect makes the soil stiffness increase when the wall moves in the unexcavated side direction, and hence gives different trends for long-term wall movements compared to the linear elastic model. The GSHP operation makes the wall move in a cyclic manner, and the seasonal variation is approximately 0.5–1 mm, caused by two factors: the thermal effects on the deformation of the diaphragm wall itself and the thermally induced volume change of the soil and pore water. In addition, it is found that the change in bending moment of the wall due to the seasonal GSHP cycle is caused mainly by the thermal differential across the wall during the winter, because the seasonal changes in earth pressures acting on the diaphragm wall are very limited.
