What is Angat Dam Mechanics Overview about?
Dams are built to impound water upstream. There are several types of dams including gravity, arch, buttress, and embankment dams. Gravity dams rely on their weight to resist water pressure and are usually made of concrete or masonry. Forces acting on dams include gravity, hydrostatic pressure, uplift pressure, and seismic forces. Dams must be designed to resist sliding and overturning based on calculations of resisting and overturning moments.
