摘要
The Pingston Hydro Project is a 45 MW hydropower project developed by private sector power development companies. The project involves 3.5 km of low and high pressure tunnels, a 450 m shaft, and 1225 m of steel liner. The tunnels are at internal pressures up to 480 m head, and the gross head at the powerhouse is 590 m, making the head at this plant one of the highest in North America. The paper will discuss construction of the tunnels and shaft, in-situ stress testing and determination of the steel liner length, high pressure plug design and construction and related design and construction issues.
