Abstract
<p>Dams are hydrotehnic engineering structures that have undergone significant advancement throughout history from an engineering standpoint, and today they represent some of the most complex constructions. Additionally, they play a crucial role in the economic development of many countries. Four basic types of dams have been developed: embankment, gravity, buttress, and arch dams. Each of them poses unique challenges that require significant efforts from engineers, which include the constant development and application of new technologies. One of them is the Three Gorges Dam, which represents the largest gravity dam, as well as the largest hydroelectric complex in the world. The technology of the project is extremely complex, and together with the comprehensive benefits to the community, makes the project more challenging than any other hydro project in the world.</p>
