ABSTRACT

This article addresses results of the quality control program that was developed for the construction of the RCC dam. The program started with activities prior to dam construction related with planning and erecting the equipments for RCC production and delivery as well as with the adjusted RCC mix design and a full scale trials. Due to RCC delivery was done using all conveyor system and trucks and too the high weather temperature during great part of the year, special emphasis has been given to inspection the methodology of processes of production, transportation, placement and compaction to control segregation of RCC and RCC placement temperature. Testing has monitoring material properties, mix proportions and fresh and hardened properties. Records of testing are analyzed and compared between properties of RCC placed by Crawler Placer and trucks are presented. Also, testing results of facing and bedding mix are included.
