Abstract

With the advantages of superior seepage resistance, geological adaptability, low post-maintenance, and low cost, concrete cut-off walls are used in the foundations of various rockfill dams around the world. This paper discusses the maximum horizontal displacement, top settlement, and stress distortion of ordinary rigid concrete cut-off walls (OC) and plastic concrete cut-off walls (PC) at the late stage of reservoir impoundment. The study then progresses to a comparative analysis of the mechanical properties of concrete cut-off walls by collecting the deformation characteristics and detailed data information of concrete cut-off walls in 31 examples of actual projects in conjuction with numerical simulation calculations. Through the research in this paper, it is hoped that it can provide some references for the design of cut-off walls of earth and rock dams.
