The Artificial Ground Freezing (AGF) has demonstrated its versatility as an effective approach for both temporary ground stabilization and ground water control in almost all types of saturated soils. This paper describes the use of a closed circuit freezing system in the construction of four cross passages. The passages connect 4.8 km long twin road tunnels that have recently been constructed at depths of up to 60 m under Suez Canal in Ismailia, Egypt. The paper starts by describing the ground conditions at the locations of the cross passages and by presenting the results of laboratory tests conducted on unfrozen, frozen and thawed soil specimens. The main design criteria considered in designing the freezing works are discussed and the freezing and cross passages construction works are described. The frozen body was carefully monitored during the freezing process and construction of passages. Records of the adopted monitoring program are presented and discussed. Significant observations that contribute to effective planning of future freezing works are also presented.
