Features: This book combines the actual construction of concrete-faced rockfill dams (CFRDS) in China with advanced international experiences, featuring extensive discussions on design, construction, and operation management of CFRDS. It includes many cutting-edge topics related to ongoing, completed, and planned CFRDS projects, such as crack control on the face slab, joint sealing structures and materials, dam shape design, foundation treatment, and new construction methods and technologies. The book objectively reflects the technical level of CFRDS construction in China and promotes the development of CFRDS application technologies. It serves as a design manual and construction manual for water conservancy and hydropower surveying, design, and construction personnel, as research material for research institutions and universities, and as a guide and reference for various aspects of water conservancy and hydropower engineering. The book comprehensively covers the construction of CFRDS in China, an overview of the development of CFRDS engineering application technologies, and discussions on on-site filling and compaction testing methods.
