Description

This technical reference from Routledge provides a comprehensive guide to the management of embankment dams. It begins with a historical introduction before moving into the practical requirements for instrumentation, including planning, procurement, and installation practices. Readers will find detailed information on the significance of visual inspection techniques and the monitoring of critical parameters. The text covers essential data points such as seepage, pore pressure, surface and internal displacements, earth pressures, and seismic behavior. By using instrumentation to track these variables, engineers can better understand dam performance. The book also explains the methods for collecting and processing data. It suggests how to use this information for back analysis to verify dam stability during different stages, including construction and reservoir filling. This resource serves as a detailed guide for professionals needing to understand the monitoring and surveillance of embankment dam structures.
