Use of Proluvial Deposits for Constructing Earth Dams
The natural characteristics of the formation of proluvial deposits necessitates regulating their particle size distribution and moisture content before placement in the dam body. Soil material can be created from proluvial deposits for various zones of the dam body, including rubble-clay soil for impervious components, which with proper compaction, is characterized by high seepage, piping, and mechanical strength as well as small compressibility. It is advisable to carry out quality control of compaction of such soil on the basis of fines.
