Evaluation of Concrete Structure Condition of the Volzhskaya Hydroelectric Power Plant

Аннотация

During the reconstruction of the Volzhskaya HPP, it is very important to determine the properties of the concrete and the strength parameters of the structures and buildings of the HPP. During field studies, the durability of concrete under monoaxial compression was measured and the velocities of elastic waves were determined. Based on completed tests, a large amount of data that makes it possible to evaluate the strength parameters of the entire HPP building was selected. According to the results examined in this article, it is possible to predict the formation of defects in concrete. The tendency for the durability of concrete structures in the direction to decline in the direction from the right bank to the left is revealed.
