Small Suction Dredgers: How to Control the Quality of Works

Sep 13, 2021

How to control the quality of works in the construction of waterways by medium and small suction dredgers 

How to better achieve the quality of the project. The author based on some experience and accumulation in the normal work

experience and accumulation, from the technical point of view of the preliminary discussion and discussion, and especially for

The common problems of quality control in actual construction have been analyzed in a more general way.


1 The basic principle of construction of small and medium-sized suction boats

The principle of stranded suction vessel construction is relatively simple, and the principle of its steel pile cross-digging method is generally construction personnel

are better understood, is also their common construction methods, this paper is only from the side of the quality control

This paper only decomposes it into 2 aspects from the side of quality control.


1.1 Downward digging of the reamer in stranded suction construction

The downward force given to the reamer in construction is mainly twofold: one is the reamer's own weight; the other is the

The reamer frame lifts the cylinder's downward pressure transmitted when the downward pressure. The reamer is constantly winching the soil and the mud

The vacuum formed by the pump continuously absorbs the soil through the suction port, and the two kinds of downward pressure keep pushing

The reamer is pushed downwards to reach a certain elevation and the depth of the reamer is reflected by a scale connected to the cutter frame.

The depth of the reamer is reflected by the operator by the readout of the scale connected to the tool holder.

1.2 Lateral movement of the reamer

When the main pile is positioned and the second pile is lifted, the left and right crossing cables are collected and released, allowing the reamer to move from side to side.

The path of movement, i.e. the trenching, is a circle with the main pile as the center and the length of the captain and the reamer projection on the river bottom

The radius of the arc is the sum of the lengths of the captain and the reamer on the river bottom.
