Features: This book introduces research findings on several practical technical issues in earth-rockfill dam construction, including research methods, experimental techniques, and application scope. The content includes a comparative analysis of several particle size analysis standards for cohesive soils, research and application of unconventional rock tests, studies and applications of gravel-sand filters and nonwoven geotextile filters, compaction standards and applications for earth-rockfill dams, several rapid methods for determining the maximum dry density of cohesive soils, approximate measurement methods for the maximum dry density of oversized coarse-grained soils, the role and control conditions of high-plasticity zones in earth-rockfill dams, technical performance and applications of clay cut-off walls, as well as research and applications of high-pressure gate sealing and hydraulic gate nylon slides. It serves as a reference for scientific research, design, and construction personnel in water conservancy, power, and metallurgical systems, as well as for faculty and students of relevant professional colleges and universities.
