Ready-mixed concrete is sprayed directly onto the fixed steel frame system. The special concrete hardens almost instantly. Photo: Quang An |

It is expected that it will take a year for the Than Vu tunnel to be opened. Construction work inside the mountain is very difficult. As the tunnel is dug, the iron frame is shaped accordingly. Photo: Quang An |
