1 Slide 1 GEOMEMBRANES FOR SEEPAGE CONTROL IN DAMS: NEW TECHNOLOGIES IN REHABILITATION AND NEW CONSTRUCTION A. Scuero, G. Vaschetti, CARPI TECH V. Subramanian, CARPI INDIA Waterproofing Specialists Third National Dam Safety Conference Roorkee, February 2017
2 Slide 2 GEOMEMBRANES ARE VERY FLEXIBLE MATERIALS WITH EXTREMELY LOW PERMEABILITY 2
3 Slide 3 CARPI GEOMEMBRANE SYSTEMS The material Composite geomembrane SIBELON CNT= SIBELON PVC geomembrane heat-bonded to a geotextile Geomembrane Imperviousness (k=6 x cm/s) Geotextile >> Tensile strength >> Puncture resistance >> Thermal dimensional stability Some transmissivity 3
4 Slide 4 This presentation focuses on rehabilitation SIBELON geocomposites have been used in rehabilitation of ALL types of dams Dam type Rehabilitation Concrete gravity 30 Buttress 5 Multiple arch 13 Arch 3 Masonry 15 Rockfill 22 Earthfill 3 RCC 8 4
5 Slide 5 CARPI GEOMEMBRANE SYSTEMS The objectives: stop leakage, dehydrate, monitor 5
6 Slide 6 PVC geocomposite has a face anchorage and a peripheral anchorage 6
7 Slide 7 COMPONENTS A drainage layer: the gap allowed between the concrete face and the geocomposite, and in many cases an additional high-transmissivity geonet A drainage collection and discharge system The waterproofing layer, a SIBELON geocomposite The face anchorage: vertical tensioning profiles The watertight perimeter seals at submersible peripheries The upper seal All metal components are stainless steel. The fastening of tensioning profiles and watertight perimeter seals is made by chemical phials 7
8 Slide 8 Installation of the drainage layer and of the face anchorage profiles (Carpi patent) 8
9 Slide 9 Installation of the waterproofing geocomposite 9
10 Slide 10 Heat-seaming of geocomposite sheets 10
11 Slide 11 Installation of the face anchorage profiles (Carpi patent) over the geocomposite 11
12 Slide 12 Waterproofing of the face anchorage profiles with PVC cover strips 12
13 Slide 13 Watertight seal Chemical anchor Epoxy resin Rubber gasket Stainless steel batten strip 13
14 Slide 14 Top seal 14
15 Slide 15 Case history in India: Kadamparai masonry dam 15
16 Slide 16 Kadamparai, India MW PUMPED STORAGE SCHEME Exposed SIBELON geocomposite Before repair After repair 38,000 lpm 100 lpm 16
17 Slide 17 Project data Masonry dam, 67 m high, owned by Tamil Nadu Electricity Board. It forms the upper reservoir of a pumped storage scheme Impounded in After ten years, leakage started through deteriorated masonry joints, cavities in the masonry, joints between monoliths, and through the foundation rock Repeated repairs by Packing and pointing the joints of the masonry Vertical drilling from the crest Grouting at close intervals Underwater treatment by chemicals and cement grouting were unsuccessful and seepage increased to unacceptable extent In 2003, after a thorough study with the involved parties, a tender was floated for an exposed geomembrane system 17
18 Slide 18 Leakage in the drainage gallery, left abutment 18
19 Slide 19 Leakage in the drainage gallery, right abutment 19
20 Slide 20 During 1999 racking and packing at selected locations was carried out on the upstream face of the dam, including chemical treatment in underwater conditions 20
21 Slide 21 In fact the chemical treatment proved to be totally unsuccessful because it got detached from the masonry and peeled off Chemical grout came out through the drainage gallery, leaving more cavities inside the masonry body of the dam Cementitious materials and fines were eroded and collected in the drainage gallery 21
22 Slide 22 CARPI hired Indian sub-contractors to execute the preliminary works which were completed by end of December
23 Slide 23 Installation of internal tensioning profiles started in mid-january
24 Slide 24 A geotextile was installed on the upstream face, to protect the geomembrane against puncturing Geotextile, 2000 g/m 2 24
25 Slide 25 The PVC geocomposite was laid over the antipuncturing geotextile SIBELON Geocomposite 2.5 mm PVC g/m 2 geotextile 25
26 Slide 26 Double bottom perimeter seal to reduce head on primary seal and to separate water drained from the upstream face from water drained from foundation : DRIP visit 26
27 Slide 27 Monitoring of the geomembrane system is made by measuring drained water, by readings at piezometers, and by the optical fibre cable system that will allow locating the area of any unattended water from a possible leak Piezometer and data logging box installed in the gallery Optical fibre cable and data logging box installed at the crest 27
28 Slide 28 Before repair 38,000 lpm After repair, at FSL (Full Supply Level) 100 lpm 28
29 Slide 29 INDIA POWER AWARDS 2008 Issued by the Council of Power Utilities of India to recognize achievements and contributions by organizations and individuals for Power sector. Awarded on November 3, 2008 with the following motivation: CARPI India Waterproofing Specialist Pvt. Ltd. was adjudged the winner in recognition of Excellence in Water and Energy Management for designing and installing first PVC geomembrane waterproofing system in Kadamparai dam IDENTICAL SZSTEM IS BEING INSTALLED IN 2017 AT SERVALAR DAM, UNDER THE DRIP, Dam Rehabilitation and Improvement Project 29
