A concrete gravity dam having a maximum reservoir level at 200 m and the RL of the bottom of the dam 100 m. The maximum allowable compressive stress in concrete is 3000 kN/m2 and the specific gravity of concrete is 2.4. Calculate the height of the dam and check whether it is a high dam or a low dam.
1
H = 214.2 m High gravity dam
2
H = 90 m High gravity dam
3
H = 214.2 m Low gravity dam
4
H = 90 m Low gravity dam
