In this study, crest settlement characteristics of CFRD (Concrete Faced Rockfill Dam) and ECRD (Earth Cored Rockfill Dam) were analysed through the instrumentation data from representative 7 large dams in Korea. Also, We have studied the effect of valley shape and uniaxial compressive strength of intact rock to better understand the impact of the parent rock strength and the valley shape on the long term crest settlement of CFRDs. From the results, we found that the valley shape and strength of intact rock on crest settlement of dams are an important parameters. As a result, we obtained that the maximum crest settlement of CFRD is larger than that of ECRD and long term crest settlement rate per dam height of rockfill dams is less than 0.60% during service period.

In this study, the settlement data of 32 center cored rockfill dams (total 39 monitored data) were collected and analyzed to develop the method to predict the crest settlement of a CCRD after impounding by using the internal settlement data occurred during construction. An artificial neural network (ANN) modeling was used in developing the method, which was considered to be a more reliable approach since in the ANN model dam height, core width, and core type were all considered as input variables in deriving the crest settlement, whereas in conventional methods, such as Clements's method, only dam height is used as a variable. The ANN analysis results showed a good agreement with the measured data, compared to those by the conventional methods using regression analysis. In addition, a simple procedure to use the ANN model for engineers in practice was provided by proposing the equations used for given input values.

The seismic design of embankment dams requires more comprehensive studies to understand the behaviour of dams. Deformations primarily control this behaviour occur during or after earthquake loading. Dam failures and incidents show that the impacts of deformations should be reviewed for existing and new embankment dams. Overtopping erosion failure can occur if crest deformations exceed the freeboard at the time of the deformations. Therefore, crest settlement is one of the most critical deformations. This study developed empirical formulas using Gene Expression Programming (GEP) based on 88 cases. In the analyses, dam height (H_d), alluvium thickness (H_a), the magnitude-acceleration-factor (MAF) values developed based on earthquake magnitude (Mw) and peak ground acceleration (PGA) within this study have been chosen as variables. Results show that GEP models developed in the paper are remarkably robust and accessible tools to predict earthquake-induced crest settlement of embankment dams and perform superior to the existing formulation. Also, dam engineering professionals can use them practically because the variables of prediction equations are easily accessible after the earthquake.

본 연구에서는 36개의 CFRD에 대한 계측자료(38개 지점)를 통해 댐 축조단계에서 얻어지는 계측자료를 이용하여 담수 후 댐의 정부침하량 및 내부침하량 예측기법을 제안하였다. 전체 데이터에 대한 분석 결과, 댐체의 정부침하량 및 시공 중 최대 내부침하량은 댐체의 높이 및 간극비에 비례하였다. 그러나 내부침하량과 댐 높이에 대한 반대수지 상에서의 선형회귀분석 결과는 간극비에 따른 차이 없이 대단히 유사함을 확인하였다. 또한 CFRD의 시공 중 내부침하량을 통해 정부침하량의 예측이 가능하였으며, 댐체가 조밀할 경우 연직변형계수가 크게 평가됨과 동시에 계곡형상의 영향을 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 향후 CFRD의 설계, 시공, 장기적 유지관리를 위한 유용한 도구가 될 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 37개의 CCRD에 대한 계측자료(46개 지점)를 통해 댐 축조단계에서 얻어지는 계측자료를 이용하여 담수 후 댐의 정부침하량 및 내부침하량 예측기법을 제안하였다. 전체 데이터에 대한 분석 결과, 담수 후 시간경과에 따라 정부침하량이 함께 증가함이 확인되었으며, 댐 코어의 재료를 조립질과 세립질의 2가지 유형으로 구분한 댐 높이와 시공 중 최대 내부침하량의 관계로부터 조립질 재료를 사용 시의 내부침하량이 다소 크게 평가되었다. 또한 내부침하량은 댐 높이에 비례하여 증가하였으며, 댐 코어로서 세립질 재료를 사용하는 경우의 정부침하량이 상대적으로 크게 평가되었다. 본 연구결과는 향후 CCRD의 설계, 시공, 장기적 유지관리를 위한 유용한 도구가 될 것으로 전망된다.

To get the possible for management and maintenance, it was analyzed the deformation characteristics, such as crest of embankment and concrete face slab, and leakage of concrete faced rockfill dams (CFRD). There are trends that embankment deformation depends on intact strength used rockfills rather than dam height, deformation normal to concrete face slab during the first reservoir filling is occurred more than 80% of the total deformation in general, and the magnitude and trend of concrete face slab deformation is similar to post-construction crest settlement. The results showed that the range of post-construction crest settlement suggested by Sherard and Cooke (1987), and Clements (1984) had a good agreement in the cases using rockfill with very high intact strength, but it had a trend which underestimated crest settlement in the cases using rockfill with medium to high intact strength. The maximum leakage rate in general was observed during the first reservoir filling and long-term leakage rate was rapidly increased when the dam height exceeds approximately 120m.

In this study, settlement characteristics of 23 CFRD was investigated from monitoring data and the method to estimate the crest settlements considering internal settlement during constructions was proposed. Moreover, crest settlement smaller than 20cm and deflection of face slab smaller than 20cm are not considered to be critical to the stability of large dam whose height is over 40m. Therefore, we assigned the region as safe zone that can be used as a guideline of maintenance of dam. These estimated data can be used in the design, construction and long-term maintenance in domestic CFRD hereafter.

본 연구에서는 준공 후 정부침하, 콘크리트 슬래브 변형, 누수량 등의 CFRD 거동 예측과 유지 관리 지표로 유용하게 활용될 수 있도록 하기 위해 국내외 27개의 콘크리트 표면차수벽형 석괴댐 (CFRD)의 사례를 분석하였다. 검토결과 Sherard와 Cooke(1987)과 Clements(1984) 등이 제안한 준공 후 정부침하 범위는 록필 재료의 강도가 매우 양호한 경우에는 적합하나, 보통에서 양호한 경우는 과소평가하는 경향이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 누수량 사례분석결과 CFRD에서 누수량의 주원인은 담수하중에 의한 슬래브의 변형이고, 최대 누수량은 주로 최초 담수중에 발생하고, 댐 높이가 125m보다 커지게 되면 누수량이 급증하는 경향이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, quantitative sensitivity analysis on rockfill material influencing the dam crest displacement of Concrete-Faced Rockfill Dam(CFRD) was carried out. The purpose of this study is to indicate the most important input parameter and to show the quantitative variation of displacement at the crest of CFR type dam with this input parameter. The rockfill material properties for parametric study were obtained from the results of large scale triaxial tests on 34 rockfill materials in the 22 different sites. From the statistical analysis on these data, some statistical characteristics of rockfill material properties such as property range, distribution characteristics, and correlation between the properties were investigated. based on these characteristics, 27 property combinations were constituted by Latin Hypercube sampling method. Dam crest displacements after construction, impounding, and earthquake loading were evaluated by static and dynamic numerical analysis on each combination. From the sensitivity analysis, it was found that the crest displacement of CFR type dam was absolutely affected by the shear modulus of rockfill material and the effect of friction angle of it was negligible. This relative difference of sensitivity was more outstanding in case of crest settlement than in case of crest horizontal displacement. Also, it was found that the settlement and horizontal displacement of dam crest logarithmically decreased as the shear modulus increased and the difference between the maximum value and the minimum vale amounted to about 9.5 times in case of settlement and about 10 times in case of horizontal displacement.

In this study, an experiment with large-scale model was performed according to raising the embankment in order to investigate the behavior of failure for embankment and spillway transitional zone due to overtopping. The pore water pressure, earth pressure, settlement and failure pattern by a rapid drawdown and overtopping were compared and analyzed. The pore water pressure and earth pressure at spillway transitional zone by overtopping increased a rapidly with the expansion of seepage erosion, but the crest showed a smally change due to effect of the inclined core type. And it is considered an useful data that can accurately estimate the possibility of failure of the reservoirs. A settlement at overtopping decreased a rapidly due to failure of crest. The relative settlement difference due to change of the water level at the upstream and downstream slope cause increase largely crack of crest. The behavior of failure by overtopping was gradually enlarged towards reservoirs crest from the bottom of the spillway transition zone, the inclined core after the raising the embankment was influenced significantly to prevent the seepage erosion.
