Abstract
There are the great problems of the concrete for high voltage the transmission lines obtaining. One of them is the creation of reinforced concrete centrifugally spun transmission towers with enhanced reliability and durability for high-voltage transmission lines having voltage of 110-750 kV. The second problem is the creation of high-quality reinforced concrete foundations to fix overhead electric line lattice towers in the ground because more than 50% of operated reinforced concrete towers and foundations are in need of repair or were put into repair. A complex high-performance organic mineral admixture for tower bodies of high-voltage transmission lines is developed. The main components of the admixture are polycarboxylate polymere and silica sol. It insures increased compressive strength and tensile strength in bending, freeze resistance, waterproofing and corrosive resistance. The obtained positive results allow to reduce a compression zone width and a crack growth width. The paper can be useful for not only the transport construction but and for concrete obtaining with special properties at any fields.
