Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The developed method of strengthening lock chamber walls based on the use of prestressed beam members was substantiated by comprehensive calculations.

  2. 2.

    The proposed method was realized successfully during strengthening and repair of the chamber walls of lock No. 1 of the Moscow Canal (sections No. 1–15).

  3. 3.

    On-site observations of the behavior of the structures after their strengthening showed a substantial decrease of seasonal displacements of the lock walls and cessation of slipping of fragments of the walls into the chamber.
