Dams
The installation of hydro mechanical equipment on large dams entails the following:
- Installation of pipe work ranging from 150NB to 3000NB.
- Welding of pipe sections – horizontal and vertical.
- Welding of various materials, such as, stainless steel, 3CR12 and mild steel.
- Corrosion protection repairs of welded areas.
- Installation of sealing faces for maintenance and emergency gates.
- Installation of guides for gates and fine screens.
- Installation of valves from 250NB to 3000NB – gate valves up to 1000NB, butterfly valves up to 3000NB, sleeve valves up to 1800NB and spherical valves up to 1200NB
- Installation of crane rails.
- Installation of air and water lines for services in dams.
- Hydro pressure testing of installed equipment.
- Installation of hand railing and walk ways.
Maintenance on dams:
