Abstract:
This paper presents the design and stability analysis of Kawlewada dam (a concrete gravity dam situated in kawlewada village of gondia district) and its components. Through, the demanding years, it has been observed that failures of dams due to many factors are common. So, it is the essential to analysis the various components, parts of dam against all its modes of failures, forces acting on it, uncontrollable disasters such as earthquake, disaster, etc. For this, the preliminary data of the dam required for design, such as control levels, dimensions, crest width, base width, etc. was collected through the Inspection Engineer, posted at Dhapewada Lift Irrigation Office, Tirora, Dist. Gondia. On the basis of collected data the elementary profile and practical profile of dam was estimated, further all the major and the minor force forces acting on dam were calculated, stability analysis of designed dam against all modes of failure and for various load combinations was carried out in STAAD PRO software and was checked for permissible limits. Design of spillway, stilling basin and earthen dam was also carried out for the designed dam. Further, canal originating from the dam and carrying water to culturable command area was also designed by taking care of peak discharge as required by crops.

Abstract:
The case of a dam for an irrigation reservoir is used as an example to illustrate the different modes of failure of a water resources system. The types of failure to which a dam can be subjected are described in the first section of the paper, in terms of a framework of general reliability analysis. Two applications are considered: the case of operational failure, illustrated by means of an irrigation reservoir for arid countries, and the case of dam failure due to overtopping. Conceptual models are given which permit the inclusion of reliability and other figures of merit into both operation and safety analysis.

Abstract:
Since there are some characteristics such as correlation, repeatability and integrity during the gravity dam design process, an automatic gravity dam assistant design system was established by adopting C sharp programming language, Visual Studio Development Suite as well as material mechanics and Technology of Parametric Drawing. The System includes four modules: 3D geological modeling, gravity dam structure modeling, dam sections analysis and database management. These modules realized different specialty cooperation and offered many-side analysis such as: 3D finite element analysis, stability analysis, stress analysis, section optimization and report export.

Abstract:
Kedung Uling earthfill dam locates at Wonogiri Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. The dam encountered sliding and settlement at the embankment wall. To minimize sliding and settlement and to optimize the dam, both field investigation and laboratory tests have been proceeded for slope stability analysis and remedial embankment wall. Soil and rock investigation around the dam, which is followed by 10 core drillings, have been conducted. Laboratory tests such as direct shear and index properties have also been carried on. The results were further used for dam slope stability model using slide 6.0 and were used to analyzed factor of safety (FS) of Kedunguling dam. 10 conditions of dam were simulated and strengthening body of dam with grouting was designed. The results showed two conditions, which are condition of maximum water level with and without earthquake at downstream, were unsatisfy Indonesia National Standard (SNI) for building and infrastructure. These conditions can be managed by using grouting for increasing stabilization of embankment wall. By setting up grouting, factor of safety increases and meet the SNI standard requirement.
