The Application of the Underwater Repair of Concrete Lining Slabs in the South-to-North Water Diversion Project

The cracking of concrete linings in the channel of the Yuzhou section of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project in Henan Province poses a threat to the structural safety of the project and the water quality environment. To solve this problem, the mixing ratio of non-dispersible underwater concrete (NUC) was optimized, the bond strength of new and old concrete was measured, and an underwater repair methodology of the linings was proposed using NUC. The results showed that adding 2.5% of UWB-Ⅱ-type anti-dispersant resulted in NUC with a 28-day underwater compressive strength of 25.1 MPa and a strength ratio of 0.9 between land and water. The effects of water–cement ratio, anti-dispersant dosage, and fly ash dosage on the performance of the NUC were revealed through experiments, and the mix ratio of NUC was optimized. Bond strength measurement at the interface between the NUC and old concrete was tested using the straight shear test. The test results showed that the bond strength between non-dispersible concrete and ordinary concrete was higher than that between ordinary concrete of the same strength grade. Through an analysis of the ionic composition of the water, it was verified that the NUC did not affect the water quality. Therefore, NUC can provide a reference for the underwater repair of the lining panel of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project.
