Descripción del Proyecto
The project consists of the modification of the route of the current El Enebral - San Juan water pipeline in the vicinity of Berma de la Presa de Valmayor. The aim of the project is to protect the structure of the dam from the risks of the hypothetical rupture of the pipeline. To this end a new underground welded steel pipeline has been installed. The exterior diameter is 914mm with a thickness of 10mm. The pipeline is embedded in 760m of fiber reinforced concrete. The project includes the installation of two reinforced concrete chambers to house the handling and control elements, a drainage basin and a sectioning valve room with vacuum release and drainages valves.
The drainage system from the new pipeline has been connected to the waste water pipe that drains the basin between the dam and the service road using a 400mm diameter reinforced concrete tube.
