- Abstract:
- In the underground pipeline renovation project at a university, various types of existing pipelines were systematically reorganized and integrated into a utility tunnel within the confined campus area. Additionally, portions of the abandoned civil air defense channel structures which constructed at early stage were repurposed. This approach not only significantly reduced construction cost but also optimized the layout of the utility tunnel while ensuring the realization of essential functions. The project adopted a BIM forward collaborative design approach and selected a green construction scheme utilizing prefabricated pipe jacking in certain areas based on the site’s specific conditions. This method enhanced inter-disciplinary cooperation efficiency during the design phase and significantly mitigated disruptions to the daily lives of teachers and students during construction. This paper presented the design philosophy of the utility tunnel application in campus infrastructure renovation projects, focusing on standard section, planimetric and longitudinal sections, and node design. Additionally, it detailed the repair and reinforcement strategies for the existing civil air defense channel and highlighted key considerations for its integration with the utility tunnel. The aim is to provide a reference for the design and construction of similar projects.
