Design and Construction of Embankment Dams
aitech.ac.jpDams, which are constructed of earth and rock materials, are generally referred to as embankment dams or fill-type dams. The history of construction of embankment dams is much older than that of concrete dams. It is evident that some earth dams were constructed about 3,000 years ago in the cradles of ancient cultures such as east countries.
