Abstract: |
In high arch dams situated in wide valleys, the water load has the effect that the vertical forces from the self-weight are redistributed from the centre of the dam toward its flanks. As a consequence, the normal force in the foundation area of the central dam blocks is reduced and a gap may open in the base joint, which widens even further due to uplift pressure. |
