Title:
Abstract:	The example of many hydropower plants shows that the pressure shafts of high pressure power stations lie in very varied geological conditions, which has a great influence on the layout of the pressure shaft and the structural design of the lining. Despite this variability, it is possible to formulate a few basic geological criteria whose application, however, cannot replace the detailed consideration of the specific geological conditions that is essential for every pressure shaft. Die Beispiele mehrerer Wasserkraftwerke zeigen, dass die Druckschächte von Hochdruckanlagen in sehr unterschiedlichen geologischen Verhältnissen liegen, die den Entwurf des Druckschachts und die Bemessung der Auskleidung stark beeinflussen. Bei aller Variabilität können aber einige grundsätzliche geologische Kriterien formuliert werden, deren Anwendung jedoch nicht die eingehende Befassung mit den spezifischen geologischen Verhältnissen ersetzt, die für jeden Druckschacht unabdingbar ist.
