Complex diagnostics of concrete lining technical condition

Abstract

Abstract The main use of concrete lining is mine and hydraulic engineering construction. The options of its use in underground structures and mining operations have been considered. The advantages of this lining during construction and operation have been reflected. A long service life of underground facilities with concrete lining in Ukraine has been noted. The typical defect types have been identified. The main reasons for defect formation have been reflected. The impact of natural factors on the deterioration of the lining has been researched. The possible consequences of the flaw growth have been reported. Limited opportunities for visual inspection of the concrete surface have been noted. The main areas of non-destructive test of linings have been analyzed. The basic set of methods and control devices have been established. Special features of monitoring with various methods have been indicated. The main requirements for the registration of primary data have been defined. Typical options of office data processing have been outlined. According to the processing results, the category of the technical condition of the lining is determined. Criteria for assessing the technical condition have been presented. Specific examples of complex examination of concrete lining have been provided.
