Study proposes ways to control unforeseen leaks in underground excavations

A study involving the IIAMA Institute at the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) proposes a series of solutions to address a critical engineering problem: unforeseen water leaks during the construction of deep excavations. The work, carried out by Alejandro Ferrer (Ferrer Dewatering, S.L.), Eduardo Cassiraga (IIAMA-UPV Hydrogeology Group), and Jesús Carrera (IDAEA-CSIC), focuses on controlling groundwater in urban environments. This technical challenge is accentuated when attempting to reduce the environmental and economic impact of pumping.
