Discussion on Termite Prevention and Control Technology for Embankment Projects in Southern China
The damage of termites to water conservancy projects is very serious,mainly because the earthen em-bankment provides suitable food,temperature and humidity for termites to survive.Termites dig soil and build nests in the embankment of water conservancy projects,multiply rapidly,because of the construction of ant road anthills extending in all directions,the integrity of the main structure of the project is destroyed,resulting in the reduction or failure of the water retaining function of the project,and then cause the danger of leaching,leakage,and falling nests,which will lead to the collapse of the embankment and dam in serious cases,which is a major safety hazard of water conservancy projects.Based on the construction practice of termite prevention and control in the embankment reinforcement and restoration project in Poyang County,this paper proposes the treatment methods of surface spraying,placing inducement packages and regular inspections in view of the lack of control effect and detection methods in the current termite control technology,so as to form a new technolo-gy integrating termite hazard extinguishing and prevention in embankment engineering,aiming to help improve the termite control effect in water conservancy projects.
