Investigation of Aging of Asphalt Concrete Reservoir Facing With Time

Advances in Civil Engineering Materials, 2013
Abstract The objective of this work was to study the aging of asphalt concrete facings with time based on the test results from field and laboratory specimens. The mechanical behavior of samples drilled out at three different locations of the Tianhuangping asphalt facing, which had performed for 13 years, was tested, and the properties ...

Damage of the asphalt concrete facing of the upper reservoirs - Contribution of the microbiological analysis

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2021
Due to its favourable characteristics the asphalt concrete facing (A-C) has been applied on numerous large dams around the world as an alternative watertight element to local materials such as clays and silts since 1929. Several performance issues of different origin have been experienced with this type of impervious element either at first filling of ...

Properties of asphaltic concrete of diaphragms and facings of rockfill dams

Hydrotechnical Construction, 1989
1. A study of the strength and deformation properties of asphaltic concrete is necessary for analyzing the stress-strain state of dams with asphaltic concrete diaphragms. The properties of asphaltic concrete substantially depend not only on composition but also on temperature.

Comparison of the Thermal Behaviour of the Asphaltic Concrete Facing Protected by the Reflective Surface and Reinforced Concrete, Case of the Bouhnifia Dam, Northwest Algeria

Arabian Journal for Science and Engineering, 2020
In Algeria, several embankment dams have been protected against water infiltration by an asphaltic concrete facing to ensure their waterproofness and longevity, such as the Bouhnifia and Ghrib dams, that are the subject of this work. The aim of this study is to present the modelling of the transient thermal transfer of conduction coupled with ...

Evaluation of seismic performance of asphaltic concrete facing

2018
Based on the results of the seismic response analysis on an embankment dam with asphaltic concrete impervious zone on the upstream face, which was severely damaged by cracking during an earthquake, evaluation method of seismic performance and safety was discussed in terms of the dynamic strain developed in such facing zone.

Hydraulic fatigue modeling in asphalt concrete facings for pumped storage dams: A systematic review

Physics of Fluids
Hydraulic fatigue in asphalt concrete facings (ACFs) critically compromises the durability of pumped-storage power stations (PSPSs). This systematic review of 124 studies (2000–2024) identifies cyclic hydraulic loading (100–500 kPa) and thermal fluctuations (±40 °C) as primary drivers of microcracking, reducing ACF lifespan by 30%–50%.
