Abstract

In many hydraulic structures, including dam bodies, it is not possible to effectively solve the problem of filtration. The Gegharkunik 2 reservoir is located within the land boundaries of the settlement of the same name, 900 m southeast of the village cemetery, on the elevation of the northeastern slope of the Geghama ridge, at an altitude of about 2220 m. The water in the bowl doesn't stay for long. Studies have shown that most of the water loss happens at the lower part of the dam, where there are many washouts. This means the reservoir not only fails to serve its main purpose but also poses a significant threat to the Gegharkunik community if the dam were to fail. The paper presents the results of a survey of the «Gegharkunik 2» dam.
