Part 2: BCA Regulatory Framework for Supervision of Deep Excavation Projects Illustrated with
Case Histories (1h)
There are many current underground projects in Singapore such as Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Thomson
East Coast Line (TEL), North South Corridor (NSC) highway, Deep Tunnel Sewerage System (DTSS),
Singapore Power Underground Substation (UGSS), underground drainage, sewerage and water
pipelines projects. Hence it is very important to have a comprehensive and clear regulatory framework to
ensure deep excavation underground projects are carried out in a safe manner and the supervision of
deep excavation underground projects are well managed. This session will illustrate the BCA regulatory
framework in Singapore for design submission approval and construction supervision and management
of deep excavation projects. This session will use some case histories to illustrate some of the more
commonly encountered regulations to be complied with and it will also highlight some of the latest
guidelines for supervision of deep excavation projects..

Step 2: Most Probable Design
In view both Drained and
Undrained Analyses Conditions are
performed to assess the ERSS, the
less governing case shall serve as
the most probable design.
This enables the determination of
OM level in the review level

Design Procedures Day 1 - Part 2 (4pm to 5pm)
Number of layer of struts 4 layers of struts (S3, S4, S4 & S6) 3 layers of struts (S3, S4 & S5)
Instrumentation Results
Upon excavating down to 88.8mRL
to install Strut S5, the actual wall
deflection is much lower than
predicted wall deflection

Conclusions (1 of 2)
- Underground structures design including temporary works and
permanent works are subject to regulatory framework of URA, BCA
and other agencies
- The regulatory framework is a challenge to engineers and builders,
but it has demonstrated that this can protect the stakeholders
effectively
91
IES Academy Course
Day 1 - Part 2 (4pm to 5pm)
Conclusions (2 of 2)
- From the case histories, it is demonstrated that it is feasible to comply
with the regulation as the regulations has been clearly set out
- Having a stringent framework for supervision of the underground
structures projects give more confidence in the quality or the
completed products
- Engineers are push to greater heights to think out of the box for their
design to overcome the challenges of various constraints of site
