This research proposes an inductive learning model for acquiring the knowledge about the pre-construction planning of a slurry wall system. The model is suitable for the engineering problems where human experts rely on past experience, rule-of-thumbs, or subjective judgement. The system can be used to facilitate human experts to solve a new problem at hand. It can also be used to generalize the knowledge of existing cases and so the knowledge can be kept and shared by other engineers.
