Evaluation of Marun Dam Behavior During the
Construction and Operation Period Using Instrumentation-
Abstract: (5353 Views)
Abstract:
Marun dam with a height of 170m is one of the largest embankment dams in Iran. The dam is
a zoned rockfill dam with a central clay core. Due to the importance of safety and stability
control of the dam body, a complete monitoring network including different instrumentation
systems, has been designed and installed in the dam body.
In this paper, the data obtained from the instruments, installed in the clay core, were
processed and interpreted. Based on the outcomes, the behavior of the dam body during the
construction in the impounding stage and operation period was evaluated and discussed. This
study consists of three major parts including: the pore pressure distributions, stress states
conditions in the clay core and evaluation of its settlements and deformations in the dam
body.
Keywords: Marun dam, Embankment dam, Clay core, Monitoring network and
instrumentation, Stability control
