There are two features which distinguish this type of dam from the ordinary arch dam. These are (1) “Economy .of Material”, and (2) “Ability of the Dam to act as an Arch, even Close to the Foundation, to a Much Greater Extent than the Ordinary Arch Dam”. It is understood that the canyon is wider at the top than at the bottom, which is generally the case.
