Rockfill Dams: Design Of Cougar Central Core Dam
The design of a rockfill embankment for Cougar Dam involved a choice between a central-core and a sloping-core section. The initial decision was for a sloping-core section, but this was later reversed and a central-core section was adopted. The principal factor in making the final decision was the uncertainty as to the amount of water load settlement that could be expected in a rockfill embankment the height of the proposed dam and the susceptibility of a sloping core of compacted earth to rupture from the type of settlement that would occur.
