Summary

A description is given of the distinguishing features of the geological structure of the arch dam site, of the physical and mechanical properties of rocks as well as of other factors combining to govern the geological engineering evaluation of the foundation of the structure. Engineering measures on consolidation of rocks in the dam foundation and on seepage prevention are also listed.

Résumé

Dans cet article sont décrites les particularités de la structure géologique de la zone d'emplacement du barrage-voûte, les propriétés physiques et mécaniques des roches, ainsi que d'autres facteurs qui ont déterminé, dans leur ensemble, l'estimation géotechnique de la fondation de l'ouvrage. L'article présente aussi la liste de mesures techniques concernant la consolidation du massif rocheux pour la fondation du barrage et la lutte contre les filtrations.
