Modern approaches to the construction of anti-filtration elements at the base of hydrotechnical construction

Abstract

The technologies of the device of anti-filtration elements in ground dams of hydrotechnical construction are considered. Currently, the following problem is relevant, which of the methods of the device of anti-filtration elements is more expedient, profitable and less time-consuming. Promising areas of innovative developments for the construction of underground dams are: the method of jet cementation; the method of injection curtains. A detailed analysis of technologies for the construction of anti-filtration elements at the Sangtudinskaya hydroelectric power station (HPP)-1 is carried out on the example of the jet cementation method. A wide range of non-ground construction materials is used to create anti-filtration elements in ground dams and non-rock foundations of dams. These are stone building materials based on binders, polymer materials, wood and even steel. However, the materials used for anti-filtration devices differ from those used in industrial and civil construction. They may differ in structure, composition, and application technology.
