Shield Parameter:15m- Diameter Articulated Slurry Balance Shield
Project’s Breakthrough:Massive-Diameter Shield Tunnel Continuously Crossing Six Metro Tunnels in Operation and 92 Buildings
The North Cross Channel is a "horizontal" road of Shanghai’s "three vertical and three horizontal" skeleton network. In the early 1990s, constructing highway for the whole line was the plan. However, the huge size of the highway would tear apart the precious city ground space permanently, occupy public space and impact the surrounding community while the underground tunnel scheme had been stalled for years due to too many construction difficulties. In 2014, thanks to the continuous technological innovation in the field of construction, STEC succeeded in making the North Cross Channel an underground one. After commanding the use of large diameter shield and overcoming the building settlement challenge in Yangtze River and the Bund Tunnel, STEC now has the ability to ensure the safety and quality of the tunnel construction with the highest degree of difficulty and risk in the world. During the construction, STEC will push 15.59 meters’ diameter super large shield excavating from downtown Weining Road, continuously crossing the six metro tunnels in operation and 92 buildings in 6.4 kilometers, turning directions with minimum 500 meters’ radius, overcoming the tunnel lining structure, seal, construction risk and many other challenges. STEC conquered the challenging underground traffic queue in spite of heavy underground traffics and buildings.

Shield Parameter:15.43m Slurry Balance Shield
Project’s Breakthrough:World’s Longest Distance shield tunnel with Single Excavation and largest diameter When Completed
Shanghai Yangtze River Tunnel epitomizes the highest technical standard of shield method tunnel construction in the world. The overall length of the tunnel is 8.95 kilometers. We used a slurry balance shield, which is 15.43 meters in diameter, developed and manufactured by STEC and German Herrenknecht AG together, to excavate 7.45 kilometers in the tunnel, 55 meters deep at the bottom of the Yangtze River. This project broke three world records at that time, the largest shield diameter, the longest distance with single excavation, and the deepest buried depth. During the construction of Yangtze River Tunnel, the three major challenges STEC faced were “length, width and depth”. In accordance to the design, construction and disaster prevention of oversize-diameter and extra-long distance shield tunnel under the condition of complicated soft soil stratum, STEC mastered the stability of oversize-diameter shield tunneling and the accuracy of extra-long distance shield tunneling, resolving seven world-class technical difficulties including the synchronous construction technology which prevents the tunnel from floating, overcoming 50 crucial construction problems and furthermore, creating the global standard of extra-large tunnel construction in future cities. Yangtze River Tunnel is also the first shield tunnel adopting all-around stagger assembling craft in our country. STEC manufactured 74,710 pieces of large reinforced concrete segment for its production, and the precise fault margin of which is lowered under 0.5 millimeter, which ensured the quality of the tunnel form.
At present, the Shanghai Yangtze River tunnel has won various domestic tunnel construction awards, including China Civil Engineering Jeme Tien Yow Award, Gold Medal of National Quality projects and others. It also became the first Chinese tunnel project to win "The Tunnel Award" from International Tunneling Association.

In accordance with the subsequent planning and development requirements, upon event completion, this area will be built into a municipal public activity center as a 21st century landmark, combining "premium exhibition, headquarters business, cultural exhibition, ecological habitat, tourism and leisure" together. STEC participated in the design of underground space of Central SOEs’ headquarters in Expo Park Area B, covering about 450,000 square meters. This area is located in the west side of the Expo with four major pavilions. 28 buildings in the area shall accommodate China Commercial Aircraft, Baosteel, State Grid and other 15 large central SOEs. Above the ground is a low-carbon green ecological public activity center, under the ground is a super large "underground city" complex. Area B has been built adjacent to the west of Metro Line 13 Expo Park Station. The shortest distance between the foundation pit and the metro station is only 11.9 meters, and the shortest distance with the regional tunnel is approximately 14.3 meters. The southern side Guozhan Road and Bocheng Road have a shared ditch which is only about 3 meters from the nearest sideline pit, the surrounding roads are distributed with numerous pipelines. The ditch is only 200 meters away from the Huangpu River. It is the nearest mega underground construction project in Shanghai so far. Faced with such a complicated construction environment, STEC made an overall construction plan of the foundation pit. We divided 6 pits into two parts according to the distance. We start from the far pit, and when its inner structure is completed, we adopt the interval method one after another to build the near pits to reduce the shifting and sinking impact of the construction on the metro station, so as to ensure the overall progress of the project. The construction pioneered a new model of planning, designing and constructing several buildings’ underground space together, providing valuable and replicable experience for developing underground space in Shanghai and even central China. It also offered useful insights for building a future city’s CBD.

The gross floor area of this project is about 220,000 square meters, among which 18 high-rise buildings cover an area of 150,000 square meters and 4 multi-floor villas of 10,000 square meters. In 2005, in accordance with the accurate market analysis and prospects of Jinqiao district, we developed “Jinqiao Development District” and at that time made a bold move to build rare residential houses with fine design and provide a perfect “move-in condition”. The buildings in the project feature neoclassical style, with a façade made of natural granite and bricks as well as the perfect combination of construction and aesthetic in terms of the choice of materials, color balance and the standard of scales and mixture of lines. Boasting a 66-meter-wide column distance, 16.3% of super-low building density, the buildings are sparsely and densely scattered around the community. In terms of landscape design, we built green avenues at the entrance of the community, grew evergreen column trees and other trees whose leaves usually fall and turn yellow in autumn, interspersed with large-scale yards and water landscapes to showcase three dimensional effects and to create the effect of “a new view with each moving step” under the design concept of “forging European royal garden”. On the design of house types, the high floors contain five types of houses from 81 to 180 square meters and the villas contain 2 types of houses from 311 to 420 square meters in order to demonstrate the qualities of “spaciousness, delicacy and transparency”, to achieve the effect of “being spacious on large scale and being deep on micro scale” and to have natural lighting and be bright from south to north.

Shanghai Pujiang large residential community is located at Pujiang Town, Minhang district. The total investment of the project costs 12 billion yuan and the planned floor area occupies 232 hectares which are mainly relocated houses and economically affordable housing, with the total area of about 2,150,000 square meters among which the residential area occupies about 1,740,000 square meters and public building area of about 440,000 square meters. It is one of the largest-scale affordable housing bases in Shanghai. The project contains six-phase construction of 55 projects comprising small residential communities, roads, riverways, public and education education. Investment in labors, materials and machinery is high during construction peaks and various work processes become complicated. As we place more emphasis on livable projects, we uphold the core concept of “green living” throughout, with green landscape ratio up to 35%, which is almost the same as those of commercial properties. On the design of house types, we designed 1-room, 2-rooms and 3-rooms housing types, with the house availability rate reaching 82%. Meanwhile, the project highlights diversity and advancement, leaving ample space for the future development of the community. It plans to build two wet markets, one community healthcare center, one rehabilitation center, 18-square-meter commercial center and basic education infrastructure which includes two high schools, three junior high schools and eight kindergartens. It strives to synchronize commerce, health care, education with public service facility in the large-scale residential community and to forge a residential community with “scientific planning, complete facility, pleasant environment and quality project". The future rail line 8 will directly extend to the community center which will be equipped with large number of ground public transport interchanges so as to offer a variety of transport means above and underground for citizens. Due to the fact that Pujiang large residential community adopts PC modular building system and many building components are prefabricated by the industry, the number of building workers is reduced by about 40%. The modular building can improve the reutilization rate of such materials as steel molding plates, dramatically reducing the construction and material wastage, thus the construction energy saving rate can be over 50%. Moreover, the quality of industrially produced buildings are improved and some common problems like leakage and wall cracking solved. This is the largest-scale project in Shanghai with the highest PC productivity rate and enjoys a prefabrication rate basically from over 50% to the highest 70%.

Project’s Breakthrough:First Single Underground Railway Tunnel with Dual Carriageway in China
The design for the station adopts the concept of “one view for one line”. We use modern building materials, technical and construction methods to build a "modern bridge” architectural image. The ancient legend "crane dances across the sand" designed for the Wild Animal Park Station highlights the special geographical and cultural characteristics of the region.
Shanghai Metro Line 16 is a regional express line, connecting Lingang and the city center. The total line is 58.8 kilometers long. We took charge of designing the entire line and part of the underground constructions. In the design of elevated section, we invented and applied the U-shaped thin-walled structure package design, construction techniques and construction technology investment decreased by about 18.5% per kilometer, compared with traditional large and small box girders. The underground section uses the single underground railway tunnel with dual carriageway in China for the first time, by presetting the wall to separate the tunnel into two semi-circular spaces. To prevent the tunnel structure from deforming, we reserved a certain gap between the top of the wall and the tunnel structure, which we called a separate structure design.
The underground section of Metro Line 16 is 10.3 kilometers long and has three underground stations. STEC constructed three intervals, two air shafts, and two stations. It is the first time a slurry shield tunneling machine of 11.58 m diameter in unstable formations was used in China. In the initial assembly of the shield machine, we use ‘frame conversion’ method to solve the problem of placing a 90-meter shield in a 49-meter-long tunnel, creating a precedent for using the large diameter slurry shield in domestic construction industry. As the key construction technology to the single underground railway tunnel with dual carriageway, the separate wall construction was attempted for the first time in China. There is no relevant construction experience to follow. We work with professional machinery manufacturers jointly developing the partition assembly robot, tunnel wall construction machines, special chassis, and other professional construction equipment. We also received national patents, and provided an example for constructing the single underground railway tunnel with dual carriageway using large-diameter shield.

Project’s Breakthroughs:The First Massive-Diameter Underwater Shield Tunnel in China
Apart from resolving the construction difficulties in road tunnels, STEC is also dedicated to reserving space for city transportation system via pre-design. Guangdong Zhuhai Maliuzhou Traffic Tunnel is an exclusive underwater tunnel connecting Zhuhai city center and Hengqin New District, which is also the first 14-meter diameter massive shied tunnel in southern China. As the weaver of “intelligent transportation system plan” in Zhuhai, STEC has a more profound understanding in the design and construction of Zhuhai-Hengqin tunnel.
Due to the influences of three to four typhoons in Zhuhai every year, two bridge passageways in Hengqin will be totally blocked when the typhoons come. Therefore, STEC helped the island to maintain contact under severe weather by enhancing the design of flood prevention platform in tunnels thereby resolving the problem. Meanwhile, STEC also connects the tunnel, with surrounding city transportation and tube systems, taking into account transportation function and city planning development. The move to combine the tunnel and the surrounding municipal road network, pipeline network, municipal pipelines into the underwater shield tunnel reduce the expenses of underwater cables and specified pipes and provides a multi-functional tunnel so as to free up space for Hengqin’s further development.
Besides its function, STEC also considered the important harbor as the city’s image. Tunnel designers adopt the “Chinese zither” as the model to make the surrounding system composed in the shape of Chinese zither. It also adopts the form of earth-covered construction, making the vegetation appear like the elaborate decoration patterns on Chinese zithers. With the premise of satisfying transport demand, the project not only presents the characteristic culture of Zhuhai Hengqin but also emphasizes the ecological meaning which perfectly displayed the geographical scenery traits of Hengqin Island.

Shanghai Metro Century Avenue Station Project is located in Shanghai Pudong New Area, at the intersection of Century Avenue, Dongfang Road, and Zhangyang Road, with floor area of 36,300 square meters. The Century Avenue Transfer hub is an efficient integrated and resource sharing station. The height of four stations formed the shape of the Chinese character "丰". In lieu of the traditional way of transfer, a "zero transfer hub" was achieved. This innovation not only reduces transfer time and distance, but also greatly improved passengers’ transit experience. Consolidating the surrounding environment conditions during construction, we first built separately then combined all the things together. We utilized the multi-door-shaped anti-floating beam to ensure the structure stability of the station. When constructing metro line 9 station’s foundation pit, we excavated section by section and adopted a steel-concrete supporting system to prevent line 2 and 4 stations from deforming, which ensured normal operation of metro stations. The project’s technical innovations not only fulfilled the lacking part of large-scale rail transit transfer station expansion project, but also accumulated much experience in large-scale construction projects. The success of the project bears testament to our construction techniques in underground expansion reaching an international level. Our research achievements can be widely promoted in the entire underground construction industry.

Project Value:Cars Paying Toll without Stopping in Five Provinces and One City
Shanghai Electronic Toll Collection Project is a major civil engineering project. By using this toll system, cars can go through the gate in less than two seconds, five to ten times quicker than paying fees manually. STEC leads the industry in designing smart transport. After Shanghai government issued a paper on developing the highway ETC system in 2006, STEC is proud to be invited to design the 1st, 2nd and 3rd phases of the ETC project, providing comprehensive plans for the full application of the ETC system, and also assisting Shanghai to lead other cities in developing smart transport. We suggest the ETC project having toll charging and clearing center, card center, customer service system, toll charging branches, toll gate system, driveway system and car OBU system. We’ve also proposed an innovative ETC technique plan. That is, installing OBU with a single stored value card to let a car go through quickly on crowded roads to meet some cities’ requirements of high speed. Using traffic micro simulation software PARAMICS can optimize the setting of ETC driveways, railings, and card readers. With all these, crowded roads can be eased and clearance speed can be increased. After the 1st and 2nd phase construction, 190 ETC driveways were set up in 22 major toll gates and 64 subsidiary toll gates in Shanghai. After the 3rd phase, 79 more were installed, covering all the highway toll gates inside Shanghai. Cars can now pass through the Yangtze Delta Region (Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Jiangxi and Fujian) without stopping, by using the ETC system.

Project’s Breakthrough:First Single Underground Railway Tunnel with Dual Carriageway Using Large-Diameter Shield Across the Yangtze River in China
As the first national enterprise building large-scale public roads using an 11-meter shield for construction, STEC applies the large-diameter shield construction technology to rail transport, aimed to meet the clients’ need to shorten tunnel construction period and save the underground space. The tunnel, starting from East Liuzhou Rd to Shang Yuan Gate of Nanjing Metro Line 3, is 3353.94 meters long. We construct the single underground railway tunnel with dual carriageway and inner structure at the same time, with shield’s diameter reaching 11.57 meters. Because of the expansion of the shield’s diameter, the shield is able to lay two tracks at the same time. This reduces the construction costs and time significantly and saves limited urban underground space compared to traditional 6-meter-diameter shields. The metro has to go through the Yangtze River, where the geologic situation is complicated, as there are a lot of gravels, fracture zones and layers at the bottom of the river. However, due to our rich experience in previous large road tunnels, we conquered all the difficulties and successfully built a single underground railway tunnel with dual carriageway using large-diameter shield across the Yangtze River in China for the first time.

Project’s Breakthrough:First Ground-level Power Supply in China
Zhuhai Modern tram is the first tramway using ground-level power supply system in China, which has zero emission during operation. The first phase project of Zhuhai modern tram line 1, designed by STEC, stretches 8.7 kilometers. All 14 stations are above the ground, and the line has one tram base. The modern trams are 100% low-floor, with steel wheel and steel rail. The whole line uses catenary-free ground-level power supply system. STEC also adopts environmental-friendly lighting system, which gradually adjust light to become brighter when the tram reaches the station, and the lighting intensity differs on holidays and working days. In addition, in order to make full use of the tram as a major public transport, STEC offers a series of value-added services for the city. That includes 10 shuttle buses’ routes and transportation plan which can serve more than 110,000 people, as the tram network is not fully developed and there are only very limited connections with existing public transports in the first phase project of Zhuhai Modern tram line 1. The first phase of the tram involve dedicated lane rights, before the traffic flow matures and early stage transportation stabilizes, some lanes will be free, while other lanes are crowded. STEC analyzed the tram lane’s characteristics, accessible time and numbers, and then set limited conditions for cars to share the tramway. That means, trams use the first-phase tramway exclusively, but at the intersections, some of the roads are shared. On the basis of intersection traffic organizing principle, STEC offered signal control strategies and intersection signal control solutions to ensure the signal control are embedded in the design. Our study on the tram is gradually expanded to more routes and functions. We also drafted guidelines to help trams become the major transport mode in the city.

Pipe-Jacking Parameters: 7.5mX10.4m Section Rectangular Pipe Jacking Tunnel
Project’s Breakthrough:World’s Biggest Section of a Rectangular Pipe Jacking Tunnel
Zhengzhou Zhongzhou Avenue Tunnel is the longitudinal axis of the city’s downtown expressway system. It has the biggest section of a rectangular pipe jacking tunnel in the world. Since 1999, STEC has put rectangular pipe jacking technology into tunnel construction. The conduit jacking construction technology has a higher utilization rate of space with shallow overburden and low construction cost. These advantages make conduit jacking construction technology favorable for underground construction in big cities.
The construction of Zhengzhou Zhongzhou Avenue Tunnel consists of four rectangular pipe jacking tunnels through the use of a large section pipe jacking machine (10.4 m * 7.5 M). STEC managed to finish the first 110 meters long extra large section rectangular pipe jacking in China without disturbing the ground transportation, underground lines or pipes. The land subsidence was controlled in less than 3 centimeters. At the same time, in view of the special section structure of conduit jacking, the tunnel has a 35% higher utilization rate of space than a round section tunnel, reducing the depth of tunnel burial.
Till dare, among the finished rectangular pipe jacking tunnels, the biggest width is 6 meters like a pavement. STEC’s domestically designed 10 meters’ width tunnel is the first example in the world. It subverted the concept of city road design and construction. It is poised to become one of the best options of city’s underground transportation and tunnel net construction.

As a large-scale comprehensive project combining civil engineering, installation and electricity, Shanghai Middle Yanggao Road Power Tunnel Project is our country’s largest power tunnel. It is also a landscape engineering project to place all overhead high voltage lines under the ground in Pudong. After the completion, the ‘cobweb’ in the air on the south side of Shanghai Middle Yanggao Road completely disappeared. Middle Yanggao Road Power Tunnel was 3,180 meters in length and was divided into two parts: the tunnel and working well construction, among which the tunnel is about 2,800 meters in length along with cables of 22 million volts, which mainly supplies the People's Square and Lujiazui area. During the tunnel construction, we adopted the trenchless pipe jacking technology, dividing the construction into nine sections, among which 4 sections crossing under the road and 3 sections respectively crossing under East Yan’an Road, Luoshan Road Overpass and raw water box culvert. Top section construction imposes high requirements on environment deformation control. As there was no mature construction experience in ‘large-caliber, long-distance and hyperbolically curved pipe jacking underground butting construction’, construction is of great difficulty. The tunnel can allow small maintenance vehicles to enter. Therefore, if there is a power failure, maintenance will not affect ground traffic on Middle Yanggao Road. This makes line maintenance of the high voltage cable and daily maintenance more convenient. In addition, the monitoring equipment in the tunnel and the card access system into and out of the tunnel can prevent theft of the buried cables and make the power line safer.

Airspace Class:4E Class Civil Airport
After several years of expansion, Shanghai’s first civil airport, Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport is now one of China’s largest international airports. Its construction and operation fully embodies the idea of “developing a city’s airport is to develop an aviation city”. STEC has been involved in the construction of Hongqiao Airport as early as 1970s, including most of the construction work of the runway, taxiway and tarmac before 2005. In terms of the airport’s renovation, STEC has accomplished the task of asphalt paving on runways in 1991, 1998, and 2005, without affecting the airport’s daily operation. We have also renovated the eastern taxiway in 2000, and the eastern runway in 2011. The airport’s eastern runway renovation project not only made full use of its residual value, but also complied with the infrastructure procedure strictly, and ensured safety, high quality and high efficiency of the project during the whole construction process. This was led by the life cycle cost management concept, supported by technological innovation and guided by the airport’s operation.

Project’s Breakthrough:First Double Circle Shield Tunnel in China
A more reasonable and effective arrangement of the tunnel contour and saving the underground resources are key issues for the current city rail transport construction. We constructed tunnels from Shanghai Metro Line 8’s Huangxing Park Station to Shiguang Road Station, which is 2,688 meters long. The shield started from the Huangxing green area, passing through Xiangyin Road Station and Nenjiang Road Station, and ended in Kailu Road Station. We used the double circle shield, with a diameter of 6.52 meters and a width of 11.12 meters to complete the task. Introducing this shield for the first time helped save the underground space, limit the environmental impact and reduce the construction cost.
Relying upon STEC’s outstanding R&D team, as well as manufacturing and management capabilities in shield equipment, we had a huge breakthrough on the double circle shield construction without precedence in China. We conquered major technical difficulties like double circle shield tunnel ground deformation control, tunnel axis control and tube sheet assembly, etc. and formed a relatively complete double circle shield construction technology, laying a solid foundation for the comprehensive promotion of this shield construction method.

Project’s Breakthrough:Across Metro Line 1 under Operation by using Super-Shallow Shield
As the availability of urban underground space for development becomes lesser, planning and construction of metro line is severely constrained. Construction on Shanghai Metro Line 9’s section from Xujiahui Station to Zhaojiabang Rd. Station is a case in point. The tunnel is 1,105 meters long. Due to the space limits, the super-shallow shield has to pass over the metro line 1 without affecting its operation. The depth to the top is only 4.2-5.0 meters. In order to control the risk, and minimize the environmental impact, STEC adopted two earth pressure balanced shields, with diameter of 6.34 meters, which we designed and manufactured ourselves. Our most experienced and skilled management and construction team, successfully completed the task, through precise calculation and analysis of the tunnel’s deformation characteristics and how the super-shallow shield passes over tunnels in service, without using auxiliary measures such as foundation reinforcement which may affect the nearby environment. After calculation, the maximum settlement above the Hengshan Road is only 25 millimeters, and the maximum uplift amount of Shanghai Metro Line 1 is only 2.3 millimeters, so we have controlled the tunnel axis effectively within ± 50 mm.
Relying on our more than 20 years’ experience in rail transport construction, we are able to construct tunnel projects which are extremely difficult and high risk. We are capable of helping the city achieve the “impossible” construction dream.

The latest 11.83m*7.27m rectangular shield machine developed by STEC was adopted on the first phase of Ningbo Metro Line 3, which has the largest cross section in the field at home and abroad. This kind of rectangular shield machine pioneered the integrated bidding mode of “scientific research-design-construction”. Relying on rich experience in designing and constructing shield machines, STEC’s scientific research team succeeded in developing the “Yangming” shield machine, which was named after the master of mind study——Wang Yangming. We have also formed a close and efficient cooperative relationship with Ningbo Rail Transport Group by carrying out the project.
During the development of the rectangular shield machine, STEC adopted several innovative technologies. One is modular lay-out technology including two X-shape-interested circular cutters with multiaxial eccentric cutter system, perfectly solving the previous dead zone problem of rectangular shield machine excavating sections, and also has obvious advantages in economy and safety. This is suitable for cutting various unconventional cross sections. The second one is a control method and an algorithm to avoid the interference of two X-shape-interested circular cutters when revolving, ensuring the safety of the two cutters in operation. That’s because the partial overlapping of two X-crossing cutters’ swivel trajectory on the working surface causes interference of the two cutters thereby losing control and causing damage. The third one is multi-DOF tunnel plate assembling technology with column building functionality, implementing optimized path planning and high precision, collision-free tracking with compound motion technology, breeding a new solution for automatic tunnel place delivery processing. The fourth one is adopting the automatic articulated technology of heavy quasi-rectangular shield machine shape curve, which can make a R300m turn. There is no corresponding case in the rectangular shield machine field at home and abroad.

In the process of adjusting the energy structure in our country, one of the important measures is to speed up the development and utilization of LNG. As the forerunner of the LNG industry in China, STEC has undertook design and part of the construction work in the first, second and third phase of Hainan CNPC Shennan LNG storage project. The first phase includes two 20-thousand-cubic-meter single containment tanks and a 40-thousand-cubic-meter quay with annual transportation scale of 800 thousand tons. The second phase includes expanding one 80-thousand-cubic-meter all-inclusive storage tank with annual transportation scale of 1.2 million tons. The third phase includes expanding one 80-thousand-cubic-meter all-inclusive storage tank with annual transportation scale of 2 million tons. In terms of the design, STEC broke through the shackles of traditional pipeline design by entering into the high end area of low temperature refrigeration technology for the first time, which has far-reaching significance in accelerating the development of new energy and other emerging industries, such as LNG. As the supporting project of Hainan gasification and the first domestic LNG secondary receiving station, Hainan CNPC Shennan LNG storage project can receive, store and transport LNG. The natural gas stored is connected with natural gas pipeline network around the island of Hainan Province through transportation and pipeline distribution. This can not only thoroughly solve the ‘gas panic’ problem in Hainan but also distribute natural gas to the users inside and outside Hainan Province and therefore balance the upstream supply and the downstream market demand.

Project’s Breakthrough:Crossing 23 Heritage Buildings Continuously in Short Distance
As the shields operate under the ground in the city center, it will inevitably affect the existing buildings and equipment. STEC has enormous experiences in ‘delicate operations’ in urban centers to meet the complex environment of urban rail transit rigor requirements like construction project risk, project’s quality, civilized construction and schedule control.
Tunnel of Shanghai Metro Line 11’s Xujiahui Station to Shanghai Stadium Station is located in Xuhui core business area, which is 1600 meters long in one way, passing through 23 heritage buildings like the Xuhui Middle School, and Xujiahui Catholic Church, and metro line 1 and 4 which are already in operation. Among which, five are super-grade heritage buildings, four are first-grade, four are second-grade and nine are third-grade historical buildings. The closest distance between the shield and Xujiahui Catholic Church is only 8 meters. Through a series of land subsidence control measures, we managed to keep the soil loss rate of the super-grade heritage buildings to 1.5 ‰ ~ 3 ‰, and the overall loss rate is controlled around 5 ‰ one month after the shield passing through. We make sure the safety of the building and subway deformation is also controlled. Meanwhile, thanks to good on-site management capabilities and innovative parties construction framework, we maintained a good relationship with the residents of the surrounding communities, facilities organizations, and shopping malls, alleviating any potential problems in the central business district.

Shanghai Outer Ring Tunnel is the key link crossing the Huangpu River as the northern part of Shanghai Outer Ring Road. It is also the first cross-river tunnel in Shanghai which is constructed by immersed tunneling method and is the largest scale in Asia. The immersed tunneling method was introduced to China in 1980s, so it marked the first time that STEC constructed immersed tunnel in such a big scale. The location of the construction is near the Yangtze River estuary. The tide variation brought high construction risk and difficulty. During the construction, STEC managed to sink enormous tabulation (9.55 meters high, 43 meters wide, 100 - 108 meters, weight of 45000 tons of each). We skillfully grasped the axis, elevation and mileage changes. We ensured that the construction quality reach the design precision under harsh conditions of high wind flow, ferocious back silting. By using satellite positioning system and 3D bathymetry technology, we overcame the water displacement difficulty of the pipe sinking construction and promoted immersed tunnel construction level in our country to an international advanced level.

Concrete recycling technique utilizes large quantities of industrial and construction waste during concrete production, such as concrete aggregate, mechanism sand, steel slag powder, FGD gypsum and fly ash, to replace 30%-50% gravel, river sand and cement. Tongji University and STEC started to develop the technique since 2006. During 2010 World Expo, recycled concrete was applied to the Shanghai Eco House in the UBPA, in co-operation with Shanghai Research Institute of Building Sciences Group. This project ranked top in the domestic construction and was close to the international standard. The technique was given the Shanghai Resource Comprehensive Utilizing Prize in 2011, and Shanghai Science and Technology Progress Award in 2013. The application of the concrete recycling technique established a high-efficient method to deal with mass industrial and construction waste with low energy consumption. This helps the city turn the waste into precious mineral resources.
Currently, STEC sets its own recycling aggregate production line and construction waste consumption spot to deal with the waste on site in large demolishing projects, or collect and handle the waste together for small-and-medium demolishing projects. Through establishing a city construction waste information cloud platform, we strive to build an industry chain cycle, synthesize collecting of concrete waste, producing and processing recycling aggregate, and green recycling concrete as one application.

Gas Transmission Scale: 4,000 Cubic Meters Per Hour
Shanghai Tower is China's first and the world's third tallest building, with 118 floors in the main building with a total height of 632 meters. As its supporting project - Shanghai Tower Gas Drainage Pipe Project reaches 121 floors directly through pipelines, once again recreating the world's highest gas supply record, over Shanghai Global Financial Center. We undertook the design of the internal pipelines and the alarm system of Shanghai Tower and its gas installation project. In terms of the design, we added the automatic alarm and automatic cutting system into the gas system, which could ensure the gas source could be cut timely and effectively once gas leakage occurs, and prevent fire and explosion accidents to ensure gas safety. In construction, 150mm-diameter seamless steel pipe needed to be installed from the underground fourth floor to the top of Shanghai Tower, with only the diameter length up to 600 meters. The height of the pipeline construction is unprecedented. In addition, the settlement of the construction itself also brings some difficulties to the relatively static installation of natural gas pipeline. As the project is carried out in super high-rise building, safety issues are the primary factor. Therefore, before construction, we successfully overcame difficulties such as the gas pipe installation work high above the ground and multiplication of pipe bearing pressure, by comprehensively analyzing gas source, pressure, safety and geography factors. By arranging the bearing support and the telescopic compensator at the bottom of each gas vertical tube in Shanghai Tower, the total 6-ton-weight vertical tube in 120 floors with the diameter of 500 meters was properly dissipated. This has effectively solved the high construction pipeline deformation problem and ensured transmission security of natural gas with 4,000 cubic meters per hour. The smooth implementation of this project can further improve STEC’s high-rise gas construction and management standards and provide a reliable reference point for similar projects in the future.

Shanghai-Jiading Expressway is the first expressway in China, linking Qilianshan Road in northwestern Shanghai in the South and South Jiading Gate in the north. The total length is 20.5 kilometers. Two interchanges, Nanxiang and Malu, were built along the expressway, which were designed, constructed and maintained by STEC. In terms of its linear design, we introduced perspective inspection method to check the expressway’s route planning and its plane/longitudinal linear displacement. Eventually the design team came up with a road planning solution that matches greatly with the expressway environment that significantly improved the driving experience. The two diamond-shaped interchange along the Shanghai-Jiading Expressway has proved to be a solution to less land utilization and lower project cost. The upper structure of the interchange is built with pretensioning cored slab beam, combined box beam and post-tensioning T beam. To reduce the numbers of expansion joints and improve the runway’s flatness and bridge utility, the bridge surface adopted simple supported beam system with continuous slabs on the top, while the substructure adopts pier foundation. During the construction, we successfully solved the problem of building structures on the soft soil with the aid of the new research finding “setting up embankments on soft soil foundation” In addition, our findings of “fly ash as the filling material of expressway embankments” was given the 1st prize of Shanghai Science and Technology Progress Award and “simulations on expressway traffic system monitoring” was awarded the 2nd prize. In 2014, STEC finished the renovation of Shanghai-Jiading Expressway. This “phoenix nirvana” will surely bring new life to the expressway and grant users a more comfortable driving experience.

Shanghai Inner Ring Road, also known as Shanghai Inner Ring, is the earliest elevated highway constructed in the city, and has a nickname of “Shanghai’s First Ring”. Stretching 47.7 meters, the highway consists of 49 continuous transition curves and straight lines, linking Pudong and Puxi through Nanpu Bridge and Yangpu Bridge. It functions as a protective shell for the city center traffic. The segment of Puxi and Pudong opened to the pubic in 1994 and 2009 separately. The highway has four lanes in both directions, with a speed limit at 80 km/h. Since the construction of the Inner Ring Road, STEC took charge of constructing, designing, renovating the Inner Ring Road and maintaining its Puxi segment. In 1993, STEC took on the task of the first-stage construction and co-designing work of the Inner Ring Road, which was” Shanghai municipal No.1 project”. For the second-stage, we were in charge of the construction and design of the southwestern segment. In terms of the design, we carried out a research with Tongji University about how Shanghai Inner Ring Road’s southwestern segment connect the main roads. The research results significantly impacted the layout of the entire ring road and created lots of new ideas and successful experiences for the later construction of the large interchange in city center. In the new century, we have undertaken the work of designing and renovating the Inner Ring Road’s Pudong segment. Finally, all of the Inner Ring Road was open to the public. We also participated in renovating the ring road, and paving the asphalt layer to welcome the Expo. We also changed the 29 km of street lamps along the Inner Ring Road in Puxi segment. The new street lamps used the LED energy-saving light, with low power consumption, high lighting efficiency, and long service life. The energy-saving efficiency is up to 50%. The light can also withstand Beaufort wind scale. On top of which we created an integrated portable working device with anti wall-bumping. The device looks like a box, in which workers can construct.

A city’s culture and footprints lie in its history. STEC dedicates itself to providing more continual construction blueprints for the city; in ensuring the project’s smooth development, STEC will perpetuate the city culture and protect the cultural environment.
The Shanghai Bund Tunnel is known as the major project in solving the transportation problems in city center. It extends 3.3 kilometers in total length. STEC needs to first guarantee the transportation system in the Bund and the stability of the surrounding erections; then we try to push 14.27-meter diameter long earth pressure balance shield crossing the historic architecture groups along the Bund with precision. Since most of these buildings are over hundred years, there exists uneven degrees of subsidence, leaning and structure aging, which indicates that large-scale shield method for them is a major operation.
During the whole construction, STEC views the protection of historic constructions as the first priority; “FCEC shelter pile and slip casting reinforcement” protection method has been established after several negotiations and experiments on site. Finally, FECE shelter pie technology which takes more working periods is applied to crossing the Astor House Hotel, the minor distance of which is only 1.7 meters. As for other regions, specialized slip casting reinforcement technology is put into use. After the whole project, the subsidence of historic constructions is merely 5.3 millimeters at most and the upheaval of which is just 3.7 millimeters at most, which are far lower than the expected control index.
It is STEC’s advanced construction skills that bring about more options for the exploitation of underground space in city core areas and the improvement of city transportation. Just like the stable, secure and convenient projects we have completed in suburban areas, we can also successfully construct tunnel projects in the prosperous city center.

Road Length:3.06 kilometers
Shanghai West Xianxia Road Construction Project, located in Hongqiao Integrated Transport Hub, is not only an important part of the road construction work of Hongqiao Integrated Transport Hub but also the biggest single project in Hongqiao municipal supporting project. The total length of the road is 3.06 kilometers. The construction should pass through some affiliated parts of the airport, such as two taxiways in east and west, runway blast pads, runway signal lamp strip. As such, the requirement of the project is very demanding as it has to meet the ground deformation level of the airport. Through the upgrading and innovation in techniques and facilities, we have set a precedence for large slurry shields to cross under shallow soil of the airport runway, which is also the first underpass through the working airport runway in China. We have tackled the key problems by conducting a research “The Key Technology For Slurry Shield with Big Diameter to Pass under Shallow Soil of Airport Runway.” during the construction. We managed a series of innovative results, and won three patents, two software copyrights and a construction technology certification. The project was also given the 1st Prize of Shanghai Science and Technology Progress Award. In addition, the project was honored with several awards, including the 1st prize of National Quality Construction Project, the 3rd prize of National Outstanding Project, and the golden award of Shanghai Municipal Projects. The completion of West Xianxia road successfully optimized and improved the functions and layout of Hongqiao Integrated Transport Hub, coordinated and boosted the regional development and improved the transportation system.

Project’s Breakthrough:New Design Concept of Integrating Network, Humanity, Science, and Environmental-protection into Metro Stations
Shanghai Metro Line 7 is 34.4 kilometers long. It has 28 stations, among which we constructed 9 stations, and 8 intervals. On the basis of applying advanced technology and lessons learned in domestic and abroad in urban subway construction, combining project characteristics and difficulties, we carried out autonomous innovation in overall design, construction technology, electrical and mechanical integration, energy saving, safety and environmental protection. In terms of the overall design, we suggest integrating network, humanity, science and environmental protection into metro stations, developing several metro stations and underground space together. We independently developed the new cut-and-cover method and pneumatic caisson construction technique. The subway tunnel shield construction uses the innovative micro-disturbing tunneling technology to go through service tunnel and building structures. The development and application of more than 20 scientific and technological achievements established our leading position in the rail transport industry. We also won the second prize of 2011 National Excellent Design Award, the third prize of 2006 Shanghai Outstanding Consulting Achievement Award and 2011 Shanghai Outstanding Design Award.

Shield Parameter:15.76-meter-long Diameter Slurry Balance Shield
Project’s Breakthrough:The Largest-Diameter “Railway and Road Co-Construction” Shield Tunnel in China
Hubei Wuhan Sanyang Road Tunnel will become the first massive-diameter cross river tunnel in the upper middle stream of Yangtze River and also the largest-diameter “railway and road co-construction” shield tunnel in China. The total length of the tunnel is 4.6 kilometers and STEC contracted two shield working wells, 2,590-meter long tunnel in the middle of the river and Wuchang working shield wells which are the hidden part of Xujiapeng Station and tunnels as well as major cables working as power substation and construction missions as ventilator room in Xujiapeng.
Wuhan Hubei Sanyang Road Tunnel is renowned as the largest diameter, the largest shield tunneling machine and the largest wind foundation nationwide. We employ two combined type 15.76-meter-long diameter slurry balance shield machines, which are the largest in China, in the middle of river as well as big tunnel part in the process of erection. The outer diameter will reach 15.2 meters after its completion; as for the subway part of the whole tunneling erection, we adopt an earth pressure balance shield machine to excavate. During the entire construction process, we succeeded in the nearly 2.6-meter long distance excavation and the shortest distance of 0.5-meter minor distance construction and shooting construction by virtue of accumulated rich experience in massive-diameter shield constructing. What’s more, we even bypassed the barriers of changing the working tools under the circumstances of shield machines in high-water pressure tunnels. With the rapid development of our city construction, the method of “railway and road co-construction” has gradually become an efficient way to make the best use of underground space resources. STEC’s working performance in the first ever largest-diameter “railway and road co-construction” has proved our technical strength again and also offered a model example for the coming “railway and road co-construction” in China.

Bridge Length:32.5 Kilometers
Shanghai East China Sea Bridge is the first sea-crossing bridge in mainland China. Its total length is 32.5 kilometers, including 27 kilometers over the sea. STEC constructed the bridge, and is in charge of maintenance. While building this grand bridge, many advanced technologies were used. STEC’s technical staff overcame problems of anticorrosion, fabricating and installing huge concrete box girder, and GPS positioning. These technologies became the standard of building the long-span bridge. Shanghai East China Sea Bridge created many miracles. The 32.5 kilometers length makes it the longest sea-crossing bridge in the world. The two bridge towers are 159 meters’ high, which are the highest in domestic offshore cable-stayed bridge. There is 1.22 kilometers of deep sea dike between the Zhushan Island and the Big Turtle Island. This is also a breakthrough in bridge-building technology. The biggest wonder is the building speed. We used highly efficient construction techniques to overcome the severe situation in open sea, and finished the project within 3 years. As a pioneer of building long sea-crossing bridge, the project’s experience has been practiced widely on building the Hangzhou Bay Bridge and the Qingdao Bay Bridge. The opening of the Shanghai East China Sea Bridge started the building Yangshan deepwater port and speeding up the development of Shanghai international shipping center.

Bridge Length:5.8 Kilometers
Shanghai Minpu Second Bridge’s span is the longest one among the rail joint double-deck cable-stayed bridge with one tower in China. The total length of main bridge is 436.65 meters, and its top deck is road while the other lower deck is two-way light rail. STCE undertook its design and maintenance. Due to the bold design of the Minpu Second Bridge, many breakthroughs were achieved. A cargo ship with 3,000 tons’ load can go through the main hole safely even if it encountered the highest navigable water level once in every 300 years. The main pier is in the center of the river, constructed by fully welded steel truss plate beam structure. The main tower has two cable planes. The 251.4 meters’ span makes the bridge the longest span bridge with a single tower and one cable plane. This bridge also used new type of bridge pier in the form of the Chinese character 干, which was the first time in China. This design not only overcame land space restrictions, but also solved the problem of poor view while navigating, which was previously built in the form of the Chinese character 门. What’s more, we carried out experiments on seismic performance, and worked out the rules of typical single column and double deck bridge when encountering earthquake. This provided experience to build rail joint double-deck cable-stayed bridge. Shanghai MinPu Second Bridge takes a vital role in the development of Fengxian district, which attracts more investors to come. It also shortens the traffic time between Fengxian and Shanghai city center.

Road Length:57.45 kilometers
Jiangsu Changzhou Elevated Highway, 57.45 km in length, is the first elevated highway in Changzhou, crossing over four new and old canal bridges and two Beijing-Shanghai railway bridges. To build the elevated highway on the basis of high standards, high demands and high tastes, we adopted the most advanced fish-bellied circular arc box beam in designing the box beam of the highway. It has the advantages of good overall performance, large torsion rigidity, and large span capacity. The normal pier adopted H-shaped column, which is not only delicate in appearance, but also clear and bright from watching under the bridge. We have positively adopted various energy-saving and green technologies. In terms of energy-saving, we installed embedded low-glare freeway ramp illumination system, which efficiently tackled problems of controlling glare, enhancing illumination level and evenness. It is the first time the system is widely used in China. In terms of land-saving, H-shaped and Y-shaped columns were adopted to save land. The deck space is 784,338 square meters, but the column occupation area is only about 5%. Other spaces were all designed for traffic lanes. We also introduced integrated smart traffic monitoring system by applying computing core technology, information technology, image transmission technology, and fiber optic network, to help drivers as well as the maintenance management unit know the real-time traffic condition through electronic screens. This project achieved a new high standard in terms of the investment scale, technological innovation, digital system, and modernized management. It was awarded the 1st prize and silver prize of National Outstanding Engineering Investigation Design. It was also given the China Construction Engineering Luban Award, and named as Jiangsu Province Model Construction Site and Jiangsu Quality Project.

Bridge Length:16.63 Kilometers
Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge is the biggest rail joint cable-stayed bridge in the world, called “The First Bridge in Yangtze”. Its total length is 16.63 kilometers, and the main navigational hole’s diameter is 730 meters. STEC contracted, designed and built this bridge. We also undertook the daily maintenance. As one of the designers, we cooperated with Shanghai Municipal Engineering Design and Research Institute, bearing in mind the theory of “Design for Users”. We did our best to create and optimize every detail in order to unleash aesthetic value at the same time achieving transportation function. We reserved railway space and kept pace with six traffic lanes in both directions, which is the first case in the world. The main tower is 212 meters high without beam, which is the first case in China. In other words, when building this bridge, we tried new skills and techniques, realizing the perfect combination of strength and beauty. What’s more, the whole line of the bridge was designed into a shape of “S” considering its influence to water flow, and functional requirements. The “S” shape also meets the need of beauty and environmental protection. Based on these creative theories, we forged several word-leading skills which were used in bridge building for the first time. For one thing, the cable-stayed bridge, whose main span is 730 meters in length, used new separated steel box girder. For another, there are 700 meters high pier area that used a series of combining box-girder bridge whose main span is 105 meters. The project of fabricating the whole hole in advance is also a new practice. Asphalt on the bridge floor is only 4 centimeters, so its deadweight is light. We used Germany MOBA MaticII as the method of controlling the evenness. We also researched for long-lasting asphalt, and overcame the influence of marine climate to the bridge floor, in this case, we can ensure the quality. Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge fixed the situation of over a thousand years, there was no road pavement from Chongming Island to the mainland.
