Smart Dams and Reservoirs contains the proceedings of the 20th
Biennial Conference of the British Dam Society that took place from
13-15th September 2018. Many new techniques and methods are now
available for investigating, designing, constructing and monitoring
dams. The papers in this book give examples of how new ideas have
been used in practice to improve the efficiency and effectiveness
of all aspects of the work that is necessary to ensure the safety
of dams and reservoirs. The heritage value of older dams is being
increasingly recognised, and this book aims to show how ensuring
their safety can be carried out without adversely affecting the
historic and landscape features of these sites. The papers are
grouped into six chapters covering - planning and investigatory
techniques - working with our heritage - new approaches to design -
innovative approaches in during dam construction - sensing and
monitoring techniques for the twenty-first century - emergency
preparedness. The papers in this book will be of interest not only
to engineers and others directly involved in the management of
reservoirs, but also to designers and suppliers of new techniques
and remote monitoring and surveillance equipment.
