This study reviewed the use of soil injection materials using circulating resources as injection materials for the steel pipe multi-stage construction method. The tests performed were homogel time and homogel compressive strength. The steel pipe multi-stage construction method is an auxiliary construction method for tunnels, and the expression of initial strength after construction is an important factor. The better the strength development in the initial stage, the more it can be used as an injection material suitable for the multi-stage steel pipe construction method. As a result of laboratory test, it was found that the homogel time of the injection material using circulating resources required more time than the mixing ratio using cement as the injection material. In addition, it was found that the initial strength curing time satisfying 2MPa was required for more than 24 hours. Therefore, it was confirmed that the injection material using recycled resources required a longer initial curing time than cement of the same mixing ratio.

The tunnel is excavated through the alluvial layer composed of sand and gravel with groundwater deposited on rock. A portion of upper part of the tunnel is located in the alluvial layer and there are several buildings just above the curved section of the tunnel. It is necessary to prevent from sand-flowing into the tunnel due to low strength of the alluvial, high groundwater level and shallow depth of the tunnel from the ground surface. For this, the alluvial around the tunnel is pre-reinforced by umbrella arch method with multi-stage grouting through large diameter steel pipes or jet grouting before excavating the tunnel. The effect of the pre-reinforcement of the tunnel and the safety of the buildings are monitored by measurement of ground deformation occurred during tunnelling.

It is analyzed the risk of building damage due to ground surface subsidence occurred during constructing a tunnel below buildings in sand-gravel layer. The overburden and the thickness of sand-gravel layer is about 20m and the width and the height of the tunnel are 12m and 8.6m, respectively. The tunnel is pre-reinforced by umbrella method with three rows of long steel pipes and grouting. Surface subsidence is measured at 36 points surrounding buildings and measured data are used to calculate optimized three dimensional subsidence surface. Depending on the building location, deflection ratio and horizontal strain are calculated to evaluate the risk of building damage. No damage occurs at the buildings because of both the small deflection ratios involved 1~4mm subsidence and compressive horizontal strains.
