Lessons Learned Regarding Cracking of a Concrete Arch Dam Due to Seasonal Temperature Variations

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2020
Dams located in cold areas are subjected to large seasonal temperature variations and many concrete dams have cracked as a result. In the 14th International Commission on Large Dams (ICOLD) Benchmark Workshop, a case study was presented where ...
