Auburn Dam—World's Longest Arch Dam

Journal of the Power Division, 1972
Auburn dam will be the principal feature in the Bureau of Reclamation’s Auburn-Folsom South Unit in California. The dam is a double curvature thin arch, 685 feet high, and will have a concrete volume of 6,000,000 cu yd of concrete. Extensive foundation investigations, including in situ and laboratory testing, were required to evaluate a complex ...
