An Analysis on the First-Stage Diversion Construction Method of the Dam of the Congo (ZO) ZONGO II Hydropower Station

Abstract

The dam of the ZONGOII hydropower station in the Congo is located 800m downstream of the tail water outlet of the ZONGOⅠplant. The first phase of the diversion of the dam is carried out by installing a cofferdam on the left bank of the Inkisi River to carry out sand sluice and other projects. Due to the feasibility of the construction plan and the reasonable organization of the on-site personnel, the first phase of the diversion task was successfully completed.
