Publication Date: 12/07/1994
This book has been published as part of the major international conference on the current issues and recent developments in reservoir safety and the environmental effects of reservoir development and operation. As the average age of the worldwide stock of dams increases, more emphasis is being placed by the engineering profession on the requirements for safety monitoring, assessment and remedial works to existing structures. Reservoir safety and the environment addresses these concerns of the dam engineering community and summarizes recent experiences in safety analysis and the remedial works on both embankment and concrete dams. The main topics covered are: the safety of embankment dams; environmental aspects of reservoir construction and management; the safety of concrete and masonry dams; and reservoirs and natural hazards. These studies provide a practical analysis on the diverse range of subjects in the field of reservoir engineering and will be of value to all involved in reservoir design and construction, both in the UK and overseas.
