Abstract

Dam safety surveillance model in Switzerland is a classic example of good combination of tra-ditional way and modern concept. There is no dam failure in history of Switzerland. Swiss dam safety surveillance mode is highly praised by International Commission on Large Dams and is of enlightening and reference significance to the safety management of reservoir dams in China. Based on introducing the basic information of dams in Switzerland and safety surveillance concept, this paper systematically analyzes the safety surveillance mode of dams in Switzerland, digs the safety surveillance characteristics of dams in Switzerland. Through contrastive analysis of the dam safety management modes in China and Switzerland, building safety culture, defining management responsibilities, enhancing surveillance and inspection, making innovative management mode, at-taching importance to emptying requirements, perfecting metal structure testing system and a series of experience in Switzerland are put forward for China's reference.
