Risk Assessment of Dams
Risk assessment process of dams can be time-consuming and may require high investments. If risk value of every dam is defined, then the resources could be shared more efficiently. Descriptions of evaluation procedures for various failure modes such as piping, flood, earthquake and stability are described in this chapter. Consequence assessment procedures are presented in detail, together with the steps of the risk evaluation process, thus helping to identify the appropriate failure mode for examined dam. Moreover, the evaluation of dam safety failure modes with the appropriate life loss potential procedures is described in this chapter.
