Rubber dam

Rubber dam:Also known as rubber sluice, barrage, dam rubber or rubber dam is made of high-strength synthetic fiber fabric force skeleton, internal and external coating rubber for the protective layer, processed into tape, and then its anchoring on the floor as a closed-shaped dam bag , by charging and discharging piping bag with water (gas) to form the retaining dam inflated. Crest can overflow, and can adjust the dam needed to control the water level upstream, in order to play for irrigation, power generation, navigation, flood, tidal and other benefits.

Classification:Rubber dam according to the external form of the spine can be divided into rubber dam, dam spoiler, C-type or S-type (also called arc) colored rubber dam.

Structure:Rubber dam constructed mainly dam bag, anchoring section, the control section, the base portion and pump.

Rubber dam is a new type water resources management building with the development of macromolecule material. It's made of synthetic ageing-resistant and ozone-resistant rubber and high strength fabric which forms the rubber bag fixed on the groundwork. Rubber dam inflated by air or water could be used for water retention to meet the Industrial, agricultural and daily water requirement. Rubber dam is widely used in agricultural irrigation, electricity generating, reservoir capacity enlargement, flood-prevention, urban environment beautifying and so on.

The advantages are as follows:

1. Short construction period(1 to 15 days' installation time, 1 to 5 months final construction time)

2. Lower construction cost: saving 30% to 70% cement, steel and wood comparing to concrete dam.

3. Longer lifespan:(15 to 30 years) easy operation, good shock resistant, lower maintenance costs.

Rubber dam crest can overflow, and can adjust the dam needed to control the water level upstream, in order to play for irrigation, power generation, navigation, flood, tidal and other benefits.
