Possible trend for improving gravity-dam designs on rock foundations
Conclusions Conversion of the gravity dam from traditional to reduced shapes can be effected with a more complete utilization of the compressive strength of the concrete and by permitting cracks to open in its upstream face.The following structural measures should be taken to guarantee the stability and strength of the type of dam proposed: a) the installation of a lining along the upstream face and a system of drains developed behind it; b) carrying the grout curtain upstream and joining it with the dam.The set of computations performed and the model studies conducted confirmed the strength and stability of the dam design that we developed.The proposed design makes it possible to reduce the volume of concrete and the cost.
