Tailings Dams (May 2014) – MODULES 1 to 4 (Full Seminar)
Tailings dams are critical elements in most mine operations throughout Australia but it is evident that many of these dams have not been implemented and sustainably managed in line with modern day “risk management” approaches. This course is being provided to assist tailings dam owners, and their professional staff and advisers to provide up-to-date information on how to plan, implement, operate and sustainably close their dams in a safe and effective manner consistent with various Government and “duty of care” obligations.
Includes access to the following videos:
- Background – Norm Himsley 52:03
- Management Considerations – David Brett 28:49
- Tailings Storage Methods & Deposition Principles – Prof David Williams 1:08:17

Dambreak & Consequences (September 2013) – MODULES 1 to 5
Full course
An understanding of the consequences of dam failure is essential in dam safety emergency planning and as an input to risk assessment. In recent years there has been significant advances in hydraulic modelling and access to high quality elevation data which has revolutionised dambreak modelling. The advent of risk based approaches has increased the focus on estimating the consequence of dam failure and particularly the potential loss of life. The method developed by the USBR in 1999 has had widespread application in Australia and in recent years a number of more sophisticated simulation approaches have been developed. This session will cover the latest developments in dambreak modelling and the estimation of potential loss of life from dam failure.
This course is designed to present the state of practice on these matters for dam safety risk management. The 2 days are designed for both experienced and less experienced dam owners, regulators and consultants.
Includes access to the following videos:
- Dambreak and Consequence Assessment Overview – Peter Hill 15:41

Technical Seminar: Safety Evaluation of Existing Dams Day 2 (March 2012) – MODULES 1 TO 4
Full course
This seminar emphasises the importance of periodic evaluation of the safety of existing dams, and provides specific information and guidance on the visual and instrumented monitoring of the various types of dams and their appurtenant structures. Failure modes analysis is stressed as the basis for an effective and efficient monitoring program. At the conclusion of the course, attendees will have a thorough understanding of the procedures and techniques essential to carrying out meaningful dam safety evaluations and monitoring, and should be able to apply these principles to improve their own effectiveness and the effectiveness of their dam safety programs.
Includes access to the following videos:
- Seepage Evaluation and Response – Gregg Scott 1:30:02
- Inspection of Embankment Dams, Including Rockfill Dams – Chris Danley 49:42
- Instrumented Monitoring of Embankment Dams, Including Data Evaluation – Jay Stateler 1:55:27
- Inspection of Concrete and Masonry Dams -Chris Danley 37:15
