In a hydroelectric project, shuttering is crucial for forming concrete linings inside tunnels, intake structures, powerhouses, surge shafts, etc.
  • Gantry concreting refers to the use of a gantry system—a movable framework or crane-like structure—for placing and managing concrete during large-scale construction projects. In hydropower projects, gantry concreting is commonly used in tunnels, dam blocks, surge shafts, and powerhouse structures where large volumes of concrete need to be placed with precision and efficiency.

Tunnel Excavation in Hydroelectric Projects


  • Tunnel excavation is the process of cutting through rock or soil to create underground passages such as head race tunnels (HRT), tail race tunnels (TRT), and access tunnels in hydro projects. It's a critical phase requiring careful planning, skilled execution, and continuous monitoring.


Underground Intake Work in Tunnel – Hydroelectric Projects

  • The intake in a hydroelectric project is the starting point where water from a river, reservoir, or dam is diverted into a head race tunnel (HRT). When this intake is underground, it typically connects directly to a tunnel through a shaft or submerged intake chamber. This is common in high-head or run-of-river hydro projects built in hilly or mountainous terrain.
