Research on the Methods of Calculating the Volume of Canal Excavation of Zhengzhou Section in the First Stage of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project

Abstract

There are a series problems that are caused by the complex geological and various types of foundation soil of the canal during the excavation process in the first stage of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project, such as the different strength of the same rock, especially the undulating boundary of the rocks and the varying buried depth. The author made a detail research on the spatial distribution of the basic rocks and the calculation for the volume of the excavation to save the problems and calculate the excavation volume of the rocks with different strength, also the cross and vertical method were used to provide the necessary technology data and a technology support for planning and programming of project construction.
