468 Dam works
In fact, the ladies of the Red Chamber are not only facing the challenges of the girls' school, but also various business challenges.
Among them, Wang Xue and Cao Limei, as female engineers and female geologists, they don't seem to be born to revolve around the pot and men, of course, they don't know much about cooking, and they are very unfamiliar with things like singing and dancing.
Therefore, in addition to taking turns to give cultural lessons to the children and the female students of Sunflower, most of their time is spent in the Red Chamber or in the cave, usually either tinkering with the mechanical equipment with the mechanical team, or directing the construction site like a big man, in short, all kinds of busy work.
For "alternatives" like Wang Xue and Cao Limei, there is strong support in the women's pile.
According to Xia Xiaoou's words, Sister Wang Xiaocao is the representative of our women's world in the patriarchal world, and we should have someone "break into the inside of men", although this sounds a bit black, but the ladies of the Red Chamber in this era are happy to agree......
In short, up to now, the people in the Red Mansion, regardless of men, women, young and old, have finally returned to the tense and orderly, tired but fulfilling life of the past......
The hard work on the various construction sites began again, and the planned construction of the Xiliu River Flood Dam and the Moon River Hydropower Station began to enter the large-scale construction stage one after another, and in these days, from the Red Wharf to the Moon River, from the Datian in the river bay to the banks of the Xiliu River, there was the roar of construction machinery everywhere.
The figure of 400 Han men and women is also active everywhere, these Han people have seen all kinds of novelties that they have never seen in their lives, the most surprising of which is the scene of the tractor plowing the field, people can't help but mention the rumors of what magic and ghosts they have heard in Sulu, but no matter how Lao Wang explains, people still can't understand why they can't see cattle or people pulling plows, and the iron guy with four wheels can run all over the ground, and they can't believe Lao Wang's explanation---- except for magic and ghosts, People don't believe that there is anything else that can drive these heavy iron guys.
Well, in the end, Lao Wang didn't bother to explain, he just told this group of bewildered Han people that in a few years, the children in your family who go to school will understand the mystery, and when the time comes, you will know that I didn't lie to you, because my own children won't lie to you, right......
On August 25, the second flood dam project of the Xiliu River was finally completed.
A 50-kilowatt-hour vortex generator was installed in the diversion canal to generate electricity, and by September 3, the pre-set transmission lines for the four stream power stations on Mornington Island and the Moon River hydropower station were successfully connected to the grid.
So far, the remaining major projects are the construction of the dam of the Moon River Hydropower Station, the installation and commissioning of the hydro turbine units, and the completion of the official grid-connected power generation.
The current Moon River dam has been repaired intermittently for several months since it was first intercepted and closed.
During the period when the main force of the labor force was away from home, construction on the earthen dam was only occasionally started, and for most of the time, it was a messy and silent construction site.
Now, when a large group of people finally appeared at the dam site, the real dam was soon revealed.
Behind the temporary dam, scaffolding is now erected, and concrete pillars and various frame structures are gradually being built.
Ten days later, the project was finally completed, and at this time, the construction of the actual main body of the dam began in earnest.
According to Anna's design, it is a concrete gravity dam with an average elevation of 20 meters at the top and 12 meters at the highest point of the dam.
The reinforced concrete brought from the old world began to be used in large quantities in the cave---- these materials were originally prepared for the construction of the hydropower station, considering the conditions after the crossing, Anna's assistance was in place, including the foundation piles, the reinforced concrete structure of the dam and the reinforced concrete structure of the foundation were ready-made.
Therefore, now everyone's task is to say that it is to build the dam, but to "build" the dam--- the construction team composed of tractors and five-ton trucks under the command of King Kang and Wang, starting from the foundation one by one and "building blocks" in the poured frame structure.
Of course, these jobs are easy to say, but they are actually very laborious to do, each reinforced concrete structure has a corresponding mortise and tenon joint to correspond one by one, and there can be no mistakes---- well, there have been several times when the mortise and tenon joint is wrong.
Often, everyone spent a lot of effort to lift it up and found that it was not right, and had to start over, so Kangda Wang Zhanwu had to hand over the on-site command to one of them, and the other one was responsible for checking, sorting out the components and numbering work, the work in this is very complicated, each component is close to or more than a ton, these components constitute the main body of the dam and the dam inside the complex space including the engine room, diversion holes and so on.
In addition to the mortise and tenon structure, in order to ensure structural safety and prevent leakage, there is a reinforced structure at the joints of the components, and a special reinforced cement is applied as an adhesive. In the process of building the dam, the traversers actually spied some human construction skills and ideas 60,000 years later, which can be regarded as another gift that Anna brought to them after the seawater chemical industry.
Because the reinforced cement is easy to dry, the speed of cement mixing and laying should be very fast, naturally, and it must be cooperated with the construction team, once the time is delayed, the trouble is great when reworking.
So everyone has been nervous and anxious about this super "building block" work for a while.
Fortunately, King Kang and the two of them never made a mistake again, and the three five-ton truck cranes were also very powerful and did not fail, and the work was tense, but with the super serious cooperation of everyone, the final construction effect was still good.
The dam is finally starting to grow in layers.
As the height of the dam increases, after the "building blocks" are built to the sixth floor, the truck crane can only be transferred to the earth embankment to be built from top to bottom, because the person operating the truck crane cannot see the construction surface below.
It is obviously a huge amount of work, but it is worth it, because in the end the embankment will not be abandoned, and will eventually become part of the dam - the buffer dam.
At the same time, Kang Wang and Wang said that safety construction must be put in the first place, and illegal and risky construction operations are never allowed, so everyone worked overtime and fought continuously for nearly a month - until September 15, the main body of the dam with an average height of 10 meters was completed.
Although the Moon River Dam project was a bit protracted, the traversers were very happy to have finally completed it, and everyone knew very well that this was probably the last heavy physical work project for our group, and in the future, with the continuous arrival of labor, everyone's life and career will enter a new stage.
So, on the night when the main component of the Moon River Dam was completed, a big dinner party was held in the Red Mansion, and people contributed their supermarket liquor to share with everyone, and many people drank high......
The main body of the dam was completed, followed by the installation of equipment.
All sorts of bulky gates, metal bases, and all kinds of components and equipment that no one except Kangda and Wang Zhanwu bothered to figure out their names were dragged out of the cave by tractors and finally placed on the dam.
Eventually, the objects were slowly dragged but methodically placed in various corners of the dam, both outside and inside.
On October 5, four 500-kilowatt turbine units were placed in the pre-reserved engine room of the dam.
The work has reached this point, and everyone's heavy physical work has basically come to an end. The next work was the installation of various lines and pipelines of these hydropower equipment, because these works were only cleared by King Kang and Wang, so the Supreme Executive Committee took most of the labor from the construction site, because except for King Kang and his wife, no one else could get involved at all.
According to the plan of Kang and Wang, in the next two months, Kangda will be responsible for the technical work inside the dam, and Wang Zhanwu will be responsible for the substation, transmission and distribution projects outside the dam. The latter's workload was a bit heavy, and the executive committee arranged ten helpers for Wang Zhanwu.
