Application of the LEC Method in Emergency Closing Project Construction and Corresponding Safety Measures
In the emergency closing construction of the breaching section of the downstream transverse cofferdam in Xionglong Water Conservancy Project in the main stream of the Hanjiang River,the LEC method was adopted to identify and analyze the hazards in the construction process.Special implementation plans and corresponding safety assurance measures were prepared,which played positive roles in guiding the construction.The closing construction lasted for more than four months.As predictions and corresponding measures were made in advance for potential hazards,no accident occurred.The construction quality and safety were ensured.The LEC method requires a considerable amount of data for hazard level classification.Appropriate adjustment can be made on the judgment according to specific circumstances in practice.
