Question

Design a concrete gravity dam for the following data:

Maximum allowable stress in concrete = 3000kN/m3

Maximum reservoir level = 200 m

• RL of bottom of dam = 150 m

• Specific Gravity of concrete = 2.4

• Unit weight of water = 10 kN/m3

• Take top width = 6 m ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gravity, or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy—including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light—are brought toward one another. On Earth, gravity gives weight to physical objects, and the Moon's gravity causes the ocean tides
