Experimental Study of the Mechanical Behavior of Plastic Concrete Cutoff Walls, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Jafarzadeh, Fardin (Supervisor)
Abstract
The seepage through foundation of earth dams causes the serious menaces and the reduction in their efficiency. Therefore essential contrivances must be provided against mentioned problem. One of the common and efficient ways to control the seepage through pervious layers under earth dams is plastic concrete cut off wall which is used as a filling material in dam foundation due to the low permeability, plastic behavior and low enough elastic modulus compatible with the adjusted soil. In addition to the mentioned properties, it is important that plastic concrete have an adequate compressive strength to sustain the lateral and vertical loads. Since the change in the ratio W/C (water to cement)...
