India occupies third position globally with 5254 large dams in operation and 447 dams under construction. Over 80% of our existing dams are more than 25 years old and many of them may be experiencing distress and require assessment of their condition for their operational performance and safety. Traditionally, dam operators have relied on visual observations for assessing condition of dams. In complex structures like dams, reliance on physical manifestation of underlying internal structural problems can be catastrophic. Geophysical techniques can be used for assessing condition of these structures in non-destructive manner. These techniques have been used very effectively for all types of dams. Even if the dam is not showing any sign of distress, it is advisable to know the health of the dam internal condition.
This course is desiged to train you in non-desctructive techniques for assessing conditions of Dams.

1. In present scenario such type of course is quite useful. In future we suggest to provide similar courses like Inspection of dams from safety point of view, Modernisation of dams with Instrumentation,Dam safety assurance in flood like situation etc. I will extremely appreciate the work being done by Mr. Sanjay Rana for awareness about dam safety but in my openion long way to go and he has much more potential to do in this sector in comparison to what he is presently doing.

I am Satya Prakash Sharma working on the post of Sr. Executive Engineer in Beas Sutlej Link Project (popularly known as BSL Project) of Bhakra Beas management Board (BBMB). Present I am in charge of Water Conductor System of BSL Project starting from Baggi Control Works to Sundernagar balancing Reservoir. 12.80 KM long hydel Channel popularly known as Sundernagar Hydel Channel traverses through high cutting and filling Zones and there are total 17 no. X-drainage works (i.e 01 no. Super Passage and 16 no. aqueducts) on this channel. This is a concrete lined channel and seepage and leakage from this channel is very possibility and hence this course is very helpful for investigation and repair of leakage paths. The Course is well planned and excellently executed too. Thanks & Regards....
