Dams and Reservoirs Sectional Committee, WRD 9
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, afier the draft finalized by the Dams andReservoirs Sectional Committee had been approved by the Water Resources Division Council.
Conservation of water is the most important prerequisite for proper management of water resources and hence,large number of earth and rockfill dams have been constructed in India, most of them afier’independence. Whilethese dams have contributed to the development of the nation, some of them also pose as potential hazard becauseof catastrophic damage which can take place if the reservoir water stored behind the dam is suddenly released dueto any failure or accident. The safety of the dam is thus of paramount importance and any deterioration or disorderobserved in the dam, therefore, warrants immediate suitable strengthening. Strengthening may sometimes be necessaryto restore the stipulated utility of the dam and reservoir. Strengthening may-also be required for upgrading thestability of the dam due to inadequacies in original design, deficiencies in construction, ageing, increase in storage/spillway capacity/seismicity or modification in codal design requirement. However, remedial measures imply restorationof original state and stability of dam after it has experienced some distress like breach, slope failure, settlements,crack formation, piping, subsidence/upheaval etc.
The main object of strengthening the dam through remedial measures is not only to improve its safety alone butalso to restore it fully to meet the designed requirements and estimated benefits.
There is no 1S0 standard on the subject. This standard has been prepared based on indigenous manufacturers’data/practices prevalent in the field in India.
The composition of the committee-responsible for formulating this standard is given in Annex A.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance withIS 2:1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )’. The number of Significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard,

3 GENERAL
The remedial measures best suited for a dam dependupon many factors. The type of treatment should beselected/adopted on the basis of techno-economicconsiderations to ensure the safety and restorationof embankment within stipulated period. The typesof treatments discussed in the standard are overalland general and should be considered together withspecific instructions that might have been stipulatedduring design, construction or maintenance.
4 CAUSES FOR DISTRESS IN DAMS
4.1 An evaluation of the existing rules of the art andany modification of the criteria used to evaluate the
1
safety may result.in disagreement with standard actuallyfollowed in design and construction of the dam.
4.2 Distress in the dam generally takes place onaccount of the following:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
Natural factors like ageimg, earthquake,unprecedented rains and floods, etc;
Design inadequacies and deficiency;
Imperfections and deficiencies duringconstruction, operation and maintenance;
Incorrect estimation of design parameters suchas density, shear parameter, permeabi Iity,etc;and
Non-observance of design requirements withregard to construction of structures onupstream and downstream within specifiedzones.
5 TYPES OF DISTRESS IN DAMS
5.1 Types of distress most frequently abserved inembankment dams are as follows:
a) “Distress due to deteriorations in thefoundations, and
b) Distress due to deteriorations in the dam body.
5.2 Distress Due to Deteriorations in the Foundations
5.2.1 Percolation and Internal Erosion
The main cause of the deficient behaviour is due to(a) inadequacies ofexisting-seepage control system,namely seepage barriers and drainage system; and(b) excessive pore pressure or -degradation in thefoundation.
5.2.2 Loss of Shear Strength
Saturation of the soil may result in high value of pore-pressure and reduction in shear strength of thefoundation which create disorders in and the form ofdownstream slips degradation of foundation materialetc.
5.2.3 Deformation and Subsidence
Differential settlement in the foundation may lead toexcessive seepage, high exit gradient through the strataof the foundation itself or opening/cracks developmentin the cut-off.

![Page 8: IS 14954 (2001): Distress and Remedial Measures in Earth ... · 6066:1994 Pressure grouting of rock foundations in river valley projects — Recommendations (second revision) 7894:1975](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022053101/605e46f9ee9b7272dd57bec9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
slope protection materials. The major areas needingattention in inspection have been listed in IS 9296which may be referred to for guidance.
6.1.1 Under-Water Observation
Under-water observations with video equipment andremotely operated vehicles ( ROV ) or divers forinspecting inaccessible areas under-water may be usedfor detecting the deterioration in foundation andreservoir side of dam.
6.2 Measurement
Periodic and systematic measurements in respect ofseepage, phreatic level, uplift, pore pressure, turbidity,horizontal displacement, vertical displacement andrainfall may also be used in detecting the deteriorationin foundation and dam body.
6.3 Investigation
Test results on soil samples from dam and foundat~onand chemical and physical analysis of seepage canbe used to investigate the deterioration in respect ofshear strength, seepage and internal erosion of thefoundation and dam body.
7 ‘REMED[AL MEASURES
7. I Strengthening, repairs and remedial measures arenot amenable to standardization and should be carefullyselected depending upon (a) the risk element asinfluenced by the height of the dam, reservoir volumeand potential loss to life and properties, etc, (b) theeconomic value of water stored, (c)nature of foundationstratum, and (d) materials and methods used inconstruction of the dam. Measures generally usedare as follows:
1) Monitoring distress level;
2) Seepage control measures;
3) Construction and/or repair of drains filtersand relief wells;

Construction methods which may be used forrehabilitation are given in 7.2 to 7.10.
7.2 Treatment for Control of Excessive Seepage
The main objective of treatment is to restore the watertightness of the dam and foundation. The method oftreatment may differ for foundation, dams with upstreammembrane, dams with impervious core andhomogeneous dams.
7.2.1 Foundation
7.2,1.1 Rock
Vepending upon the nature of rock, grouting maybedone either from the upstream or top of the damensuring the formation of continuous barrier in therock along with core. The grouting may be carried outwith ordinary portland cement or chemicals( see IS 6066 ).
7.2.1.2 Soil
During the service time of reservoir it is usuallyimpractical to provide a positive cut-offor open partialcut-off through out the length of the dam as a remedialmeasure. However, a full cut-off maybe adopted byway of providing any one of the following:
a) R,C.C. diaphragm;
b) Plastic diaphragm;
c) Sheet piles; and
d) Alluvial grouting.
Sometimes clay blanket constructed by suitablyspreading imperviousmaterial upstream under minimumwater condition in the reservoir combined withdownstream relief wells may be the most appropriatesolution.
7.2.2 Dams with Impervious Core and HomogeneousDams
Problems related with seepage through the dam bodyhaving homogeneous section or core may beeffectively tackled using the following measures:
a) The seepage at about FRL and above ismainly as a result of siphon effect over thedam body and may be eliminated by extensionof core up to at least one metre above MWLby open excavation and construction ofcontinuous additional core above the existingone according to specification,
b) Seepage through homogeneous section maybe reduced by providing upstream geo-membrane lining with suitable cover ofprotective layer (see Fig. 1),

7.3 Drains and Filter Construction or Repair
The main aim of the remedial measure is to collect theseepage water inside the dam and through foundationand provide it a safe exit through the drainage system,
7.3.1 Perched Water
To drain the perched water or high phreatic lines atdifferent places leading to local slushiness in thedownstream slope or piping, the following methodsmay be adopted:
a)
b)
Constructing vertical drains in the downstreamslope of the dam section going down andjoining the extended horizontal filters. Thiswill drain the perched water into the existingdownstream drainage system of the damsection (see Fig. 2),
Providing a new filter section with berm at theappropriate level of the downstream sectioncovering the entire area of seepage. Thissect ion wiII serve the purpose of downstreamIoilding and safe exit to the seeping water,
c)
d)
e)
Providing an inclined chimney filter andtransverse filter drain for the seepage indownstream and covering the chimneysection by constructing additionaldownstream section of dam (see Fig. 3),
Providing filter and rock toe at the downstreamtoe and improve drainage, and
Combination of above measures may also be
7.3.2
adopted on account of safety and economicgrounds.
Sand Boils and Slushy Conditions onDownslreom of Datn
The main cause of sand boils and slushy conditionson the downstream of dam is the excess hydrostaticpressure and seepage through deep pervious strataunderlying the dam. The severity of under-seepageboth in respect of excessive hydrostatic pressure andseepage-flow is dependent upon head of water,permeability of substratum and characteristics of theupper strata of downstream portion. This problem maybe tackled by properly designed and constructeddownstream loading berm with suitable invertedfilter, drainage trench, upstream clay blanket with orwithout relief wells or their suitable combination.
7.4 Strengthening by Grouting
Multiple-row-grout-curtain may be used for sealingdeep permeable alluvium in foundation. However, dambody grouting may also be done if need arises. Specialcare has to be taken in working out the allowablegrouting pressure and grout intake to avoid thepossibility of further cracks in the core and rise ofpore water pressure within the dam endangering its

primarily of natural clayey soil. Thoroughlymixed slurryis pumped with low headpump under gravity head.Before pumping any slurry, the cracks are washed withwater under pressure. Slurry filled into the cracks areallowed to dry for several dayslweeks. In case ofappreciable shrinkage of the slurry due to drying, theprocess is repeated. Finally the cracks should be sealedat the surface by trenching filling and recompactingwith appropriate soil to a depth of O.3to 0.6 m.
7.5.3 Sealing of sink holes in the reservoir or in theupstream of dam section by encircling the area by sheetpiling and filling the hole with dense mixture ofappropriate materials such as sand, gravel, pebble,boulder and rock fragments etc and then compactingas per specifications adopted for dam construction.

7.8 Upstream Slope Stabilization Methods
Following methods may be employed for upstreamslope stabilization:
a)
b)
c)
d)
Flattening of the slope and/or reloading onthe upstream toe. This may be done byconstructing large width rockfill berm at lowerlevel. Properly designed flatter slope can thenbe constructed from this lower level berm tothe top of the dam,
Stabilizing the upstream slope by groutingwith sand cement grout,
Restoration of failed slopes using geogrids,and
Providing additional earthfill with horizontalfilters within.
7.9 Downstream Slope Stabilization Methods
The following methods may be employed fordownstream stabilization:
a)
b)

7.10 Raising of Dam Crest
Raising of dam crest maybe required on free boardconsideration. For raising a dam crest, strengtheningof the profile by downstream loading may be done.While taking up the upstream strengthening for raisingthe dam crest, necessary precautions should be takenin respect of maintaining the reservoir outlet, removalof embankment protection, possible presence ofsediments etc. In case of a zoned dam, the prolongationand strengthening of the core should be given dueconsideration.
8 PLANNING, DESIGN AND EXECUTION OFREMEDIAL WORKS
8.1 Design Procedure
For any.enlargement, alteration, rehabilitation, repairor abandonment of existing structures or facilities,the original design documents and all availableconstruct ion and operation records should be carefullystudied.
If the rehabilitation would require substantial structuralmodification or ifbaiic assumptions and environmentalconditions which form the basis of the original designhave considerably changed, the whole structure shouldundergo a new stability analysis.
8.2 Principles and Criteria of Design
Designing of any part or whole of any component ofthe embankment dam should be done as per currentrelevant Indian Standards. Before starting detaileddesign work, the actual condition of those parts orcomponents of the structures to be enlarged, modifiedor repaired should be carefully surveyed a~ddocumented.
8.3 A close watch should also be kept to study theeffectiveness of the treatment. All necessary data andprocedures adopt’ed should be properly documented.Regular inspection of the distressed area, dependingupon its importance, should be carried out.
