RCC Batching Plant for Jannah Dam, Lebanon

With

ELKOMIX-200200

ELKON, a concrete batching plant supplier for the world's most spectacular and important projects, such as the Dubai Creek Tower project, which will be the world's tallest tower in Dubai, is also the first choice of the world-renowned contractor firm for the "Jannah Dam" project in Lebanon.

Brazilian company, Andrade Gutierrez in cooperation with the Lebanese contractor, has undertaken the construction of this huge dam with 38 million cubic meters of water storage capacity.

Elkon’s business partnership with Andrade Gutierrez, one of the most famous dam contractors in the world, started long time ago. Andrade Gutierrez continued on their way to this very important dam project with ELKON. They had already experienced the high quality of ELKON when they undertook the great dam project in Lebanon.

To provide more information about the project, the Jannah Dam Biblos on the Nahr Ibrahim River, about 30 km north of Beirut, was designed as an arched gravity dam with a water storage capacity of 38 million cubic meters for water supply in Beirut and surrounding areas.

Having supplied concrete plants equipped with ELKON twin shaft mixer specially designed for RCC concrete production for RCC dam and road projects in various countries, ELKON will meet the needs of the project thanks to its special design and production power which will produce 1.3 million cubic meters of concrete in total for this huge project.

This giant concrete plant with 4x50 m3 aggregate bins and double ELKON twin shaft mixers with 7500/5000 l capacity designed for RCC production has an RCC concrete production capacity of 400 m3 in an hour. ELKON RCC twin shaft mixers are specially designed by ELKON contains many modifications for full efficient mixing of RCC dam concrete which is a challenging mixture, has special mixing paddles and arm design as well.

There are 4 separated aggregate weighing conveyors under 4x50 m3 capacity aggregate bins, where aggregate weighing is done simultaneously for both mixers. Like aggregate weighing, cement, water and additive weighing can also be done independently for both mixers.

Because weighing and transferring can be performed independently for both mixers, two different types of concrete can be produced in different prescriptions with these two mixers, completely different in weighing and mixing times. Or, if any of the mixers stops for maintenance and cleaning, the concrete production can continue uninterrupted from the other one.

According to the project requirements, the aggregate material is supplied directly by the pre-feeding system conveyor from the crushing screening plant in to the concrete plant with the help of the shuttle type aggregate pre-feeding system, designed by ELKON. The aggregate pre-feeding system also has a 5 m3 capacity aggregate bins bunker so that the material feeding can continue without interruption when the crushing plant is in maintenance or not in operation.

In addition to successfully installation of ELKOMIX-200200 concrete batching plant for this project, which will meet the region's water needs to the high extent and require 1.3 million cubic meters of RCC concrete in total, Elkon has the honor of being the reliable concrete batching plant supplier preferred by the world's biggest construction companies like Andrade Gutierrez for such important projects.
