\"\ud83d\udca1\"<\/span> Technical Highlights:<\/strong><\/div>\n
+ Located at the busiest road intersections in Saigon, Ben Thanh Station was built under extremely confined and complex conditions.<\/div>\n
+ The diaphragm wall system is the thickest and deepest ever constructed in Vietnam, requiring advanced technology and strict control of bentonite slurry to ensure absolute stability for the surrounding urban area.<\/div>\n
+ For safety assurance, only the first panel was constructed as a trial to verify excavation stability before proceeding with full-scale panel installation.<\/div>\n
+ The diaphragm walls were also designed with provisions for future stages, ensuring seamless connection and expansion of the station when Metro Lines 2, 3, and 4 are developed.<\/div>\n
