SOLUTION: The cutting face Ga in just front of an existing pipe 1 is excavated from the front face opening of the steel pipe body 31 opened by disassembling and removing the inside mechanism of a shielding excavator to form an excavated tunnel for joints. Joint-lining rings 22 assembled in the steel pipe 31 are pushed out at every distance corresponding to one ring width in accordance with the advance of the excavated tunnel for joints. Next, the connecting edge 22a with a shape corresponding to the side face of the existing pipe 1 is cut deep in sequence from the front end of the joint-lining rings 22.
