Theoretical Calculation of RCC Layer Thickness Based on Equivalent Elastic Model and Numerical Study on Dam Deformation

Buildings
The layer-by-layer construction process of roller-compacted concrete (RCC) leads to the formation of layer zones, resulting in the transversely isotropic constitutive behavior of the RCC dam.

Experimental Study on Equivalent Strength of Induced Joints with consideration to Influence of Concrete Strength, Inducer Spacing, and Concrete Age

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2020
To prevent the occurrence of temperature cracking, the induced joints of dams are typically arranged to reduce the tensile strength and orderly guide the crack to form at an induced joint, which can protect the dam structure.
