[Concrete for the pier head compartment of the Qishi Hub Ship Lock Chamber]On September 25, 2024, the backbone project of the Western Land Sea New Channel - Pinglu Canal Qishi Hub Ship Lock Chamber - successfully completed the pouring of concrete for the pier head warehouse, marking the opening of the main working face of the Qishi Hub Ship Lock and the completion of the second stage road conversion work. The pier compartment of the ship lock chamber poured this time has a length of 45 meters and a width of 18 meters. The structural section includes two bottom structures of the water conveyance gallery, and the shear steel bars are densely arranged in a staggered manner, making the construction organization difficult. At the same time, the span of the poured compartment is large, with an area of 810 square meters. The construction management team, consisting of Pinglu Canal Group, Yangtze River Survey, Planning, Design and Research Institute, Jiangsu Kexing Project Management Co., Ltd., China Communications First Harbor Engineering Group Co., Ltd. and other participating units, used four 32 meter truck type fabric dispensers for collaborative operation on the warehouse surface, greatly accelerating the pouring efficiency. The pouring volume for this project was 2746 cubic meters. Editor/Zhou Yingwen
