About this document
Seepage Collars in Small Dams Review by Hema Kumar is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document reviews the use of seepage collars in small dams. It finds that current international practice has moved away from using seepage collars and instead uses drainage filters to prevent piping failures along conduits. An EBOP workshop was held where it was decided to update EBOP guidelines to discontinue the use of seepage collars and instead adopt filter collars based on a review of current practices and failure mechanisms.
