Lessons Learned from Troubleshooting Dams
This paper summarizes the author's lessons learned during several decades of geotechnical engineering consulting assignments involving earth structures, particularly embankment dams and levees. We provide a check list of potential pitfalls encountered in our practices and have selected a few for more in-depth examination. The topics considered include failure modes, geometry and composition, flow, compaction, and strength
