COURSE OBJECTIVES AND OUTLINE
This short course is designed to provide sound basic understanding into dam types, foundations and construction, their key issues and considerations including investigations and design and addressing new and existing dams and associated upgrades.
It will begin with looking at all the various types of embankment and concrete dams, their issues and considerations as a lead into choosing or reviewing dam type and associated upgrade including risk assessment, historical performance and basic monitoring for dam safety.
Next foundations types and associated investigations, design and construction key aspects will be covered in view of the importance of this component for both new and existing dams.
To round off basic dam understanding the final sessions will concentrate on preliminary and common construction considerations and in particular construction of embankment and concrete dam walls.

Retarding Basin Fundamentals (April 2013) – MODULES 1-4 – Full course
Learn moreRetarding Basin Fundamentals (April 2013) – MODULE 1 TO 4
Full course
Retarding basins are becoming increasingly important elements in urban flood planning throughout Australia but it is evident that many basins have not been implemented in line with modern day “risk management” approaches. Accordingly, as part of its Professional Development program, and in advance of its proposed Guideline on Retarding Basins due out in 2014, the Australian National Committee on Large Dams (ANCOLD) is planning a series of seminars across Australia on Retarding Basin Fundamentals. The seminars are being provided to assist basin owners, and their professional staff and advisors, to plan, implement and operate their basins in a safe and effective manner consistent with various Government and “duty of care” obligations.
The one day seminars are being presented by leading dam safety and risk management professionals including:
Richard Rodd- dams consultant with over 40 years experience in dam and basin design, construction, operation and maintenance.
Kelly Maslin-dams consultant with over 15 years experience in dams and risk management.
Norm Himsley-dams consultant and member of NSW Dam Safety Committee with over 40 years experience in dam and basin design, construction, operation and maintenance.
