Study And Evaluation Of The Current Situation Of Upstream and Downstream Slopes of Al-Alan Dam In Daraa Governorate

Abstract

The extent of the damage that could be recorded when

some of the earth dams collapsed between a heavy losses in lives and property, and between minor damages that require some treatment, One of the most common types of earth dam collapses is the partial or complete collapse of the dam body fills.

Therefore, evaluating the current situation of the slopes of the Al-Alan Dam located in Daraa Governorate and finding technical solutions to the problems it suffers from is necessary to maintain the optimal investment of the dam and prevent damage.

The technical problem lies in the presence of slips and depressions in the backfills of the front and back face of the dam with a presence at the top of the dam. Through the study, a set of solutions were developed through a comprehensive treatment that includes appropriate procedures that preserve soil particles and facilitate the process of water exit within specific parameters and blocking the permeability areas in the clay nucleus And ensuring the stability of the dam slopes in all investment conditions.
