ICOLD Bulletin 141 Concrete face Rockfill Dams - Concepts for design and construction

Size: 7.97 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Original preprint | Publisher: ICOLD | Year: 2010 | pages: 400

Bulletin 70, Rockfill Dams with Concrete Facing, was published in 1989. Jorge
E. Hacelas and Alberto Marulanda on behalf of the Colombian Committee on Large Dams authored the Bulletin for the ICOLD Committee on Materials for Fill Dams. In addition to Bulletin 70, the following were the main sources for this update:
- Proceedings, Concrete Face Rockfill Dams, Design, Construction, and Performance, ASCE, Detroit, October 1985.
- Proceedings, International Symposium on High Earth-Rockfill Dams-Especially CFRD, Beijing, October 1993.
- Proceedings, Second Symposium on Concrete Face Rockfill Dams, Brazilian Committee on Dams, Florianopolis, Brazil, October 1999.
- CFRD 2000, Proceedings, International Symposium on Concrete Faced Rockfill Dams, Beijing, September 2000.
- J. Barry Cooke Volume, Concrete Face Rockfill Dams, Beijing, September 2000.

Following the 1985 symposium in Detroit, USA, and during the decade of the 1990s, the concrete face rockfill dam has become common. A cursory review of the listing of CFRDs in the appendix indicates the widespread use and popularity of this type of dam.
The updated Bulletin contains eleven chapters devoted to design concepts, analysis, foundation treatment, instrumentation, construction, and performance.
The work of the following authors is acknowledged :
Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, and 10 David E. Kleiner
Chapters 5 and 6 Jason E. Hedien
Chapters 7 and 9 Archie V. Sundaram and David E. Kleiner
Chapter 11 Carlos Jaramillo
Appendix J. Barry Cooke, Bayardo Materon
The Chairman, Alberto Marulanda, provided detailed review and many contributions to all chapters that added significantly to the bulletin. Special thanks to Jean-Pierre Tournier and Normand Beauséjour, from the Canadian Committee, for their technical clarifications and precisions made during the French translation of the bulletin.
