Design Standards Embankment Dams No. 13, Chapter 9: Static Deformation Analysis
The chapter of Design Standards No. 13 - EMBANKMENT DAMS is intended to provide a guideline for designers to use when estimating deformations of an embankment dam. These estimates are used in designing crest camber, evaluating the possibility of the impervious core cracking, and estimating settlements of structures partially founded on, totally founded on, or buried within the embankment. The scope of the chapter is limited to (1) providing the reader with a basic understanding of the factors which control embankment deformations, (2) presenting typical patterns of embankment deformations, (3) illustrating simplified methods for estimating crest settlements of compacted embankments on competent foundations, and (4) providing guidelines for determining when a more complex analytical or physical modelling procedure should be performed.
