Emergency Flood Repair Works – Upper Tamakoshi Hydropower Project

Emergency Flood Repair Works – Upper Tamakoshi Hydropower Project

The Upper Tamakoshi Hydropower Project, Nepal’s largest and most prestigious hydropower initiative, faced critical structural challenges due to unforeseen flood damage. In response, an emergency repair operation was initiated to restore key infrastructure vital to national electricity supply and grid stability. As a high-priority, time-sensitive project, the repair focused on sealing concrete joints, grouting flood-damaged structures, and reinforcing high-wear zones using industry-leading construction chemical technologies. The project showcased rapid mobilization, expert application, and precision repair under extreme conditions.

Scope of Work & Materials Used

Low Viscosity Epoxy Grouting (Epojet LV40)

  • Supplied and injected low-viscosity, two-component epoxy resin into flood-damaged concrete joints and cracks
  • Ensured deep penetration, effective sealing, and restored structural bonding

Gel Epoxy Injection Grouting (Mapegel UTT)

  • Installed packers and pressure-injected gel-based epoxy resin into washed-out and water-infiltrated zones
  • Highly effective for vertical and overhead applications due to gel consistency

High-Strength Mortar Application (Mapegrout T80)

  • Supplied and applied M80-grade, fibre-reinforced, chloride and sulphate-resistant thixotropic mortar
  • Used to restore eroded concrete surfaces, especially in flood-exposed, high-impact areas
  • Delivered excellent bond strength and wear resistance under continuous water pressure
