Digging foundation around bridge approach and subway tunnels
Foundations for office buildings occupying 7-1/2 acre site in London along Thames river, are founded on 100 ft thick "London clay"; differentials of heave and settlement caused problem; straddling structure of concrete cylinders was needed to support 26 story tower over Bakerloo subway line; 10 by 20 ft diam tunnels connecting upstream and downstream parts of buildings are walled with continuous pile rows to prevent water seepage and settlement of nearby viaduct piers.
