This concept was aimed at building an environmentally friendly dam in a safer and more economical way for both the dam and the area downstream. The concept covers the cemented sand, gravel, and rock dam (CSGRD), the rockfill concrete (RFC) dam (or the cemented rockfill dam, CRD), and the cemented soil dam (CSD). This paper summarizes the concept and principles of the CMD based on studies and practices in projects around the world. It also introduces new developments in the CSGRD, CRD, and CSD.展开更多

The calculation is well consistent with the actual construction process, the thin-layer pouring process the pouring temperature and all kinds of external loads involved being taken into account, By comparing and analyzing of the impact of the cold wave on the dam stress, important references are provided for the RCCD design and the temperature control during construction.展开更多
