Since Mr. Behbahani came to the USA, he has assisted Dr. Iseley with the development of online and classroom courses for the Certification of Training in Asset Management (CTAM) program for the Buried Asset Management Institute-International (BAMI-I) where he serves as the president of the non-profit association. Mr. Behbahani is the manager of CTAM Courses. CTAM program has 4 courses taken by individuals from 15 countries. CTAM Courses benefit Professional Engineers with years of experience in management of underground asset infrastructure as well as municipalities. Mr. Behbahani was honored to receive the Rapid Excavation & Tunneling Conference (RETC) Student Attendance Scholarship in 2017 and 2019, and the Underground Construction Association of the Society for Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration (UCA of SME) Executive Committee Scholarship in 2018. Mr. Behbahani has received the Associate Water Asset Manager (AWAM) Certificate from the BAMI-I (License 0003). Furthermore, he has been able to maintain his GPA 4.0 out of 4.0 in the Ph.D. program. Mr. Behbahani has had several articles published in nationally/internationally recognized magazines and journals.

Curvature Compensation Construction Method of Large Caliber Curve Pipe-Jacking

Ms. Gao Nifang

Zhejiang Communications Construction Group Co., Ltd. Underground Engineering Branch

My name is Gao Nifang. I am female.I am 31 years old. I comes from Zhejiang Communications Construction Group Co.,Ltd. Now I’m working in No.2 contract section of high voltage circuit changed down construction of Xiasha development zone as the technical head of pipe jacking construction. Since 2017, I started to work in the trenchless pipe jacking construction technology management, in the Chaoyong-Xingnan π220KV circuit project, the pipe-jacking diameter is 3000mm,single pipe-jacking is 620m. In the No.2 contract section of high voltage circuit changed down construction of Xia sha development zone, the double row curve pipe-jacking diameter is4000mm,the maximum length of single pipe-jacking is390m and the total length is 2.3km. The trenchless construction crossed through the river,road,communications tower,etc.safely. In this period, I participated in the drafting of one standard, two engineering methods,one patent and four papers.We overcame various technical difficulties of caisson and pipe jacking. The project progressed smoothly when I was the technical leader. Meanwhile,“a kind of cassion subsidence construction adjacent to the underground method”that I participated in won the patent,and the construction method won the third prize of nation communication construction science and technology.
