Optimization of site surveys based on preliminary design analysis

Hydrotechnical Construction Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    At the current stage of development of hydrotechnical construction, when an ever greater scope of surveys is required for substantiating designs, a new approach to their planning is necessary — conversion to a survey optimization system.

  2. 2.

    One of the most effective ways of optimizing surveys is found at the junction between surveys and designing and consists in conducting calculations and design studies for analyzing the effect of geological factors on the preliminary designs, which makes it possible to reveal the most important factors and to arrange the types of surveys according to the degree of their significance for the given hydrostation and necessary detail of investigation.

  3. 3.

    It is necessary to introduce into design and survey practice a preliminary calculated design analysis at the stage of contract and, especially, detail designs, making it possible to establish the most optimal composition, scope, and method of surveys.
