Abstract
ABSTRACT The revised abstract is as follows:As a new waterproof system with plastic in underground silos, three kinds of polypropylene plastic welds were designed and subjected to a water-pressure resistance test in pump-pressure mode. The failure modes, stress processes, failure mechanisms, and influencing factors of different weld forms with different thicknesses were studied. The water-pressure resistance on the groove-weld specimens with welded cover plates was increased by approximately 40%–85% compared with that of the groove-weld specimens. The water-pressure resistance for groove-weld specimens with pasted and welded cover plates was increased by approximately 10% compared with that of the groove-weld specimens with welded cover plates. The depth of the designed underground silos is generally lower than 35 m, and the 8-mm plate thickness and groove-weld specimens with welded cover plate combination can resist 58.16 m of water pressure with a recommended safety factor of 1.66.
