Description
McGraw-Hill Roller Compacted Concrete Dams 1990 Edition by Kenneth D. Hansen, William G. Reinhardt
The roller-compacted concrete (RCC) dam is a new concept employing an inherently less expensive (leaner) concrete mix to form the core of the dam and allowing further economies through very rapid construction. The book describes the development of RCC dams, the material, design, the Japanese approach, RCC in embankment dams, construction control and specifications cost estimation, and data and performance of existing RCC dams.
