Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to perform structural analysis of arch dam using finite element method. Since the dam possesses complex double curvature shell structure analysis using conventional structural analysis method s is not preferable. Therefore opted finite element method opted. Among the many FEM packages that are available, ANSYS is a package that makes analysis of complex structures possible with least errors. The paper mainly focuses on the location of major stress concentration points and deflections of the dam.
