12、ork on a new line for the London Underground seemed likely to give the tower a real lean. Engineers have had to prop up its base to prevent it from damaging the rest of the Houses of Parliament. To control the towers movement, engineers pumped grout into the soil under the tower. The tower now leans
13、 an extra few centimetres, but the lean can be seen by the most sharp-eyed observer.,Between 1995 and 1997, to lengthen the Jubilee line of the Underground, builders dug a 40-metre- deep hole just 31 metres north of the clock tower. And the new tube tunnels were even nearer to the tower. John Burlan
14、d, who recently helped stop the increasing lean in the Leaning Tower of Pisa and was an adviser to the Jubilee line project, believed the work would affect the tower. In his opinion, no further lean should go beyond a safety limit of 27.5 millimetres over the existing lean of 220 millimetres.,To kee
15、p the lean within this limit, Burland told the British Association about the new method of pumping grout immediately under the base of the tower. More than 300 tons of grout were pumped in during construction. The towers additional lean went between 10 and 25 millimetres, but never passed 27.5 milli
16、metres.After the construction work was completed in late 1997, a review of movements in nearby walls showed that the building was in better shape than had been thought before and the safety limit was raised to 35 millimetres before any action needs to be taken.,Since 1997, the tower has continued to
17、 lean, Burland told Modern Construction. The latest measurements, taken this year, suggest that the towers lean had just reached 35 millimetres. But following regular re-examinations of the tower, experts are sure that the tower has stabilised. A spokesman for London Underground says: “We understand
