In this paper, the existing prefabrication methods of
immersed tunnel elements are systematically analyzed and studied, the general
process flow of fixed dry dock method, mobile dry dock method, and factory
method are discussed, the process characteristics and construction difficulties
of each technology are analyzed, and a selection table of precast methods for
reinforced concrete elements is proposed. Through indepth
investigation of the three methods, differences are obtained. Furthermore, six
combinations are constructed regarding the process classification. Based on the
comprehensive comparison and selection from multiple perspectives including the
novelty, costefficiency, and feasibility, the mature
and highcost processes are ruled out, whereas the
technology of flat ground flow line prefabrication of element and dynamic water
entry is recommended. Finally, the application of the specific case is studied,
and the quantitative comparative analysis with the existing process in terms of
time limit and cost is conducted. The analytical results show that the process
has certain advantages and is worth popularizing.
