In recent years, China’s hydropower station projects are mainly concentrated in the southwest region. These huge projects are facing the tight construction period and complex construction conditions, especially strong wind, dry and hot, single-point rainstorm, low early-stage strength and remarkable later-stage temperature rise of roller-compacted concrete (RCC) dam, it is very difficult to control temperature and prevent concrete dam from cracking. Based on the development status of intelligent temperature control for concrete dam, we innovatively carried out a study on the intelligent whole-process temperature control during the construction of RCC dam in combination with the actual situations of projects in the southwest region and the current research progresses; proposes the overall framework, roadmap and various research issues; puts forward a method to obtain the real crack-resistance properties through combining TSTM with simulation calculation; and realizes the coupling regulation with intelligent temperature control through creating feedback-simulation cloud platform; finally, the dynamic whole-process intelligent feedback control can be realized for concrete dam from raw materials to mixing, transportation, pouring, temperature monitoring, cooling water supply, protection and maintenance, so as to guarantee the construction quality of RCC dam under complex and serve conditions.
