This paper presents the status of dam construction in Korea, along with a brief assessment of the dam design and construction practice. The assessment is based on publically available design and construction records of the major existing rockfill dams which have been constructed since early 1970's, and focussed in identifying geotechnical characteristics of design and construction parameters of the dams. Though the assessment, two representative dams, having unique geotechnical characteristics, are selected for comprehensive comparison of their geotechnical engineering behavior during construction and operation. The comparison yields very interesting findings on the effects of various design and construction parameters on dam behavior.

CFRD (Concrete Faced Rockfill Dam) has been world-widely constructed due to a lot of advantages compared with rockfill dam and recently, sand/gravel materials, instead of crushed rock materials, are also utilized as a main rockfill material to overcome geological and environmental problems. In this paper, the process of water infiltration into the originally unsaturated sand/gravel-fill dam is studied using two-dimensional saturated-unsaturated seepage theory. According to the results of seepage analysis, if the effective drainage zone is installed in the dam, the reservoir water infiltrate into the dam along a downward flow path towards the lower drainage area. The main body constructed with sand/gravel materials, therefore, remains unsaturated.

In this study load transfer and hydraulic fracturing of core zone of object rockfill dam are estimated and monitored by a numerical analysis and a instrumentation immediately after the construction and during the first impounding. The estimated results are compared with the monitored results. It reveal that the core zone is safe on the hydraulic fracturing.

Continuous monitoring of dam performance is essential to earth and rockfill dams safety because it has to be guaranteed for safety during construction period of course and from initial impounding to a long term maintenance period of dam. Among the 31 dams managed by Kwater at present, the proportion of dams being over 20 years after completion of construction is 42% and it is estimated that the loss rate of monitoring devices will be increase as times. Monitoring devices would be impossible to repair since those are mostly installed in the dam body and foundation. If repairing of monitoring devices is possible, the expenditure will be expensive. Therefore reasonable decision making for abandonment, repair and alternation for loss of monitoring devices would be needed through the establishment of key instrument for earth and rockfill dam safety. In this study the process of monitoring for safety were modeled by failure modes of dams, adverse conditions related to failure mode, indicators of adverse condition and monitoring devices The relationship between failure mode and monitoring devices were systematically analyzed and established and evaluation technique for qualifying the importance of monitoring devices were presented.

본 연구에서는 필댐 사력부 전단파 속도 주상도 결정시 물성치 변동성에 의해 발생 가능한 불확실성을 평가하고, 평가된 불확실성이 반영된 국내 필댐 사력부를 위한 전단파 속도 주상도 모델을 제안하였다. 이를 위하여 평가된 불확실성을 바탕으로 국내 필댐 사력부에 존재 가능한 깊이-전단파 속도 곡선 400개를 결정하고, 이에 대한 통계분석을 통하여 깊이별 전단파 속도 상한과 하한 곡선을 결정하였다. 결정된 곡선을 바탕으로 Burger 모델 형태의 깊이별 전단파 속도 상한과 하한 주상도 모델을 결정하였다. 결정된 모델은 국내에서 많이 사용되고 있는 Sawada-Takahashi 모델과 비교하였다.

연구대상댐의 우안부는 콘크리트구조물로 축조된 콘크리트 중력식댐으로 이루어져 있고, 좌안부는 사력재료로 이루어진 사력댐으로 구성되어 있는 복합댐이다. 이련 형식의 댐 거동에 대한 연구에 있어서 국내는 물론 선진외국의 참고자료도 희소한 실정이다. 국내의 경우 약 17,000의 저수시설물중 복합댐 형식은 지자체나 기타 기관에서 관리하는 생 공 용수댐의 경우 거의 존재하지 않으며, 설혹 존재하더라도 시설물의 관리자료가 전무한 실정으로, 국내 다목적댐 중 유일한 복합댐을 선정하여 중력식댐과 사력댐 접합부의 거동특성을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 해석적 방법에 의하여 복합댐의 동적 상호거동특성을 분석하기 위하여 댐 축을 기준으로 모델링하여 정적(유사정적법, 수정진도법) 및 동적해석을 수행하여, 지진시 콘크리트댐과 사력댐 접합부의 지진 응답해석을 분석하였다.

The long-term behavior of rockfill material used in the construction of infrastructures such as dams is of great significance. Because of concerns about the application of weak rockfill material in dam construction, further experimental studies on the behavior of these materials are required. In this study, laboratory experiments were performed to investigate the one-dimensional deformation and particle breakage of the weak rockfill material under stress. A one-dimensional compression apparatus was designed and developed for testing of rockfill materials of different maximum particle sizes (MPSs). The compression tests were performed under dry, wet and saturated conditions on samples of rockfill material obtained from a dam construction site in Iran. The results of the experiments conducted at the specimen preparation stage and the 1D compression tests are presented. In weak rockfill, the effect of the addition of water on the behavior of the material was uncertain as there were both an increases and decreases observed in particle breakage. Increasing the MPS of the weak rockfill materials increased particle breakage, which was similar to the behavior of strong rockfill material. In all of the MPSs examined, the settlement of specimens under wet conditions was higher than that observed under dry conditions. Also, the greatest deformation occurred during the first hour of loading.

In this paper, a predictive method accounting for the scaling effects of rockfill materials in the numerical deformation analysis of rockfill dams is developed. It aims to take into consideration the differences of engineering properties of rockfill materials between in situ and laboratory conditions in the deformation analysis. The developed method is based on the modification of model parameters used in the chosen material model, which is, in this study, an elasto-plastic model with double yield surfaces, i.e., the modified Hardening Soil model. Datasets of experimental tests are collected from previous studies, and a new dataset of the Nam Ngum 2 dam project for investigating the scaling effects of rockfill materials, including particle size, particle gradation and density, is obtained. To quantitatively consider the influence of particle gradation, the coarse-to-fine content (C/F) concept is proposed in this study. The simple relations between the model parameters and particle size, C/F and density are formulated, which enable us to predict the mechanical properties of prototype materials from laboratory tests. Subsequently, a 3D finite element analysis of the Nam Ngum 2 concrete face slab rockfill dam at the end of the construction stage is carried out using two sets of model parameters (1) based on the laboratory tests and (2) in accordance with the proposed method. Comparisons of the computed results with dam monitoring data indicate that the proposed method can provide a simple but effective framework to take account of the scaling effect in dam deformation analysis.

Cracking may be used to help predict the cause of deterioration of concrete, since in many cases characteristic cracking patterns are produced. The purpose of this paper is an analysis of the crack cause occurred in concrete faced rockfill dams. We analyzed the concrete placement methods, cracking pattern, the inspection of crack depth by the ultrasonic pulse velocity method, and the measurement of heat of hydration, environmental condition, and so on. In this study, the crack cause of concrete faced rockfill dam is the wrong method of concrete placement, high temperature difference by cement of heat of hydration and concrete of drying shrinkage.
