Abstract:There are many municipal pipelines under the urban roads serving the surrounding land. The municipal pipelines usually need to be laid across the road to meet the supply needs of the users on both sides of the roads. In order to reduce the impact of the newly built crossing-road pipelines on the existing roads, the reserved facilities for the pipelines across the road can be implemented synchronously with the construction of urban roads, in which the reserved trench for the engineering pipelines is an effective method. By analyzing and summarizing the experience in setting up the reserved trenches for an urban engineering pipeline in a southern city for many years, the suggestions for setting conditions and layout spacing are proposed.
