Abstract
This paper first introduces the basic concept of the CSG (cemented sand and gravel) dam construction. It then puts forward a new quality control method by inspecting the in-situ P-wave speed of CSG as an alternative to the conventional specimen compression tests. Through an extensive experimental program, it is found that there is a good correlation between the compressive strength and P-wave speed of CSG, which makes the P-wave speed measurement potentially an effective and efficient quality control measure to evaluate the CSG strength on site.
