About this document

Box Pushing Technique in Civil Engineering by chandana is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document describes the box pushing technique used to eliminate railway level crossings. It involves excavating the area, casting a thrust bed, and fabricating front and rear shields for an RCC box. The box is cast in segments outside the embankment and pushed through incrementally using hydraulic jacks, with soil excavated simultaneously. It allows for rail traffic to continue with better quality control than traditional methods at less cost, though skilled supervision is required to maintain alignment.
