Ches Dezhou · Journal of Hydroelectric Engineering · 1995

In this paper a brief introduction is given to the scope of dredging speciality and to the evolution of this trade in China and some foreign countries. The classification of the floating--operation ships used in dredging, including those of the axuxiliary boats and the land machinery, are presented. The state of utilization of the dredging machinery in domestic hydraulic projects, such as under water excavation and aggregate collection, sediment and debris removing, and embankment blast-filling, together with that of trade management are described more in detail.According to the recent developmert of mechanical dredging at home and abroad as well as to the domestic demands, a proposal concerning the guiding principles of developing dredging meahinery in water resources and hydroelectric engineering departmants is offered.
