Abstract

Water shortage has always been one of the fundamental problems in society. For this reason, dams play an important role in the country's water crisis. Among the dams, embankment dams are the most common type of dams that local materials can be used for their construction. Because embankment dams are susceptible to cracking, the extension of crack should be prevented in them with necessary measures. In this study, geophysical studies of dry dam were proposed. For this purpose, geoelectric method has been used to study and identify different layers of the dam, identify cracks as well as the water surface in the dam body and the results show the layering separation based on soil specific resistance.
