Abstract

Take an earth-rock dam project as a research object,and according to the geological survey report about the dam geology parameters,typical cross-section of dam is selected to calculate the seepage,and then to determine saturation line of various operating conditions.Then the security situation of dam is analyzed.The results show that penetration gradient of the dam in a variety of operating conditions are less than the allow penetration of gradient and the dam is safe.
