Study on Dam Seismic Performance Evaluation for Future Based on the Actual Conditions of the Earthquake Damages at Dams

Abstract

In order to evaluate the seismic performance of dam bodies and related structures, it is important to collect and organize past earthquake damage cases of dam structures and analyze the seismic performance of those structures. In this paper, I collected and organized the damage cases related to the dam body and related structures in Japan and abroad in the case of the large-scale earthquakes, and analyzed the damage conditions. Then, based on the actual conditions of the earthquake damage, I examined factors to be considered in dam seismic performance evaluation for future.
