Turkey's 680-ft-high rockfill dam is protected from underwater seepage by 1150-ft deep grout curtain placed in shingle pattern; cutoff's design as well as its 2.2-million-sq-ft area reflect curtain's critical function; dam is founded on limestone or marble adequate in strength but fractured and shot with solution cavities under much of dam area; grouting is carried out from number of horizontal 10-ft-square adits in plane of dam's centerline; their vertical spacing is 130 ft.
