Abstract
Earth dams and dikes belong to the increased technology-related risk facilities, most of the accidents on which occur due to the facility design and construction errors. 60 % of the more than three hundred dam and dike collapse accidents in various countries of the world over the past 100 years have been caused by filtration through the structure’s body, suffusion and loosening of the soil, and consequently, the crest and slope failure. This paper considers the issues of developing and creating more effective structural measures to combat the earth dam and dike defects and damages, based on well-known and proven design solutions considering the technical and financial capabilities of local repair and construction companies and economies, as well as their mechanical equipment and local raw materials available.
