China Hydroelectric project construction
-taking the Three Gorges Project as a case study

Wang Weibiao
Institute of Hydroelectric Engineering, Xi’an University of Technology

This lecture briefly introduces the distribution of hydropower resources and the present hydropower development as well as the development strategy in China. The general structural types of dams are explained by using a few projects as examples and Chinese hydroelectric engineering achievements are presented. The layout and construction process of hydroelectric project is demonstrated by the Three Gorges Project case study.
