A venue transformation and construction method is disclosed that creates a tropical style swimming lagoon at an infield site of a race or activity circuit facility, the infield site being contained within a race or activity circuit perimeter. The transformation includes demolishing at least part of the infield site; excavating material from an area within the infield site; and forming a basin for a large water body having a surface area of at least 3,000 m2. Water containment walls are constructed on a first section and a sloped access area is formed on a second section of the basin for a beach. A barrier is included to control access to the beach. At least one additional recreational facility is constructed around the basin and a connection is provided that connects the outfield of the race or activity circuit with the infield site to allow transit of vehicles and/or people.

A method for fabricating a retaining wall configured to extend into a ground comprising the steps of providing at least a first longitudinal support having a receiving part and extending along a first longitudinal direction; placing the first longitudinal support transversely to the ground; providing at least a first module comprising a longitudinal element and a first wing; positioning the first module parallel to the first longitudinal support; connecting the first module to the first longitudinal support, so that the first wing of the first module is slidably engaged with the receiving part of the first longitudinal support; then moving said first module in translation along the first longitudinal direction, and sinking said first module into the ground and then the first longitudinal support into the ground.

An assembly for shoring temporary surface excavations includes a base unit and a first extension unit. The base unit includes features for allowing the assembly to be jacked out of the excavation when hoisting becomes impossible or impractical. The shoring structure may also be jacked into an unstable excavation from above.

The invention relates to a method for carrying out a construction measure, in particular a foundation engineering measure, with a construction device, in particular with a foundation engineering machine, which has a plurality of actuation elements and sensors for recording operating states relating to the actuation elements, and with a computer unit, by which recorded parameter values of the sensors are received when carrying out the construction measure. According to the invention provision is made in that for a construction measure a number of different defined process steps are stored, in that from one defined process step to at least one subsequent defined process step a transition takes place as a result of at least one exit rule, wherein to each exit rule at least one characteristic parameter value of at least one sensor is assigned, and in that the recorded parameter values of the sensors are checked as to the exit rules and, if they occur, a transition from an associated defined process step to a subsequent defined process step is detected.
