Hydrotechnical Construction Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The effect that can be attained as a result of application of the hydraulicking method of building dams is quite significant; in selecting the design of a dam, we cannot be restricted to traditional dam designs and universally adopted schemes for their construction. In each specific case, a careful search should be made of both the design of the dam and the technology of its construction as applies to the natural-geologic conditions.

  2. 2.

    Hydromechanization cannot be treated as a seasonal work method; the length of the season should be substantiated from the design in each specific case.

  3. 3.

    An increase in the level of mechanization of strictly hydraulicking operations should be classed as one of the priority problems facing technologists and designers working in the field of hydromechanization.

  4. 4.

    Organizational and technical measures providing for a sharp acceleration in the implementation of solutions that have already been tested for the improvement of equipment for hydromechanization should be developed and put in practice.
