Abstrakt: |
The ship lift at the Three-Gorges-Dam in China will be the largest of its kind worldwide. The entire structure is nearing completion. Within four reinforced concrete towers a steely ship chamber supported by ropes with counterweights will be lifted up to 113 m. This results in nearly 33.000 tons of moved masses. The article presents the structural aspects of the project from the design to the execution. |
