Question
Conduct stability analysis under extreme load condition for the design of a 50 m high concrete gravity dam. All
Assume that the bi dam behaves as a monolithic structure.
Normal operating level: 45 m
Shear strength at foundation level: 5 MPa
Compressive strength of concrete: 30 MPa
• Compressive strength of base material: 25 MPa
Friction coefficient at foundation level: 0.75
Specific weight of concrete: 24 kN/m
Specific gravity of water: 10 kN/m
Level of sediment accumulated in the reservoir: 5 m
Underwater specific gravity of the sediment accumulated in the reservoir: 11 kN/m (Q-32", K-(1-sinQy(1+sinQ)]
Earthquake coefficients: k 0.1, k. 0.05
Ice force: 100 kN/m
Tail water is not present.
It is envisaged that the lifting pressure will be reduced by 40% with the drainage structures to be constructed.
