This book provides a timely review on recent advancements in rock-filled concrete dam: a new type of dam originated from Tsinghua University in China. It covers historical overview of the development, filling process of high performance self-compacting concrete, mechanical and physical properties of rock-filled concrete, design of rock-filled concrete gravity dams and arch dams, as well as construction and quality control specifications. The book is intended for researchers, practicing engineers and graduate students who are interested in fundamental research and engineering design principles of rock-filled concrete dams. Successful insights gained from more than 120 rock-filled concrete dams completed or under construction in China are presented in this book, which can be useful references for all readers.

Autorenporträt
Prof. Feng Jin is a leading researcher in dam engineering in China. He is Changjiang Chair Professor, Chair of Academic Committee and former Head of Department of Hydraulic Engineering at Tsinghua University. Prof. Jin has made original and significant contributions to the invention and development of the rock-filled concrete dam, which has revolutionized the practice of dam construction in China. He has been awarded the prestigious national awards five times from the State Council in the past 20 years, including the National Technology Invention Award 2nd Prize, the National Science and Technology Progress Award 2nd Prize, the National Natural Science Award 3rd Prize, and more than ten science and technology awards by State Ministries. He has been granted more than 30 national patents, published more than 300 research papers, including more than 100 SCI journal papers. Results from Prof Jin's research group are widely utilized in engineering practice, and he is one of the lead authors of National Sector Standards including Technical Guide for Rock-Filled Concrete Dams, Construction Specification for Rock-Filled Concrete of Hydropower and Water Conservancy Engineering, the local standard of Guizhou Province named Technical Code for Rock-Filled Concrete Arch Dams, and the ICOLD Bulletin Cemented Material Dam: Design and Practice - Rock-Filled Concrete Dam. Prof. Jin has been served as Principal Investigator for dozens of research projects and provided expert support to more than 20 large-scale hydraulic projects, including Three Gorges Project, Xiaowan, Ertan, Xiluodu, Xiangjiaba projects, etc. He is presently Vice Chairman of Hydraulic Structure Committee of Chinese Hydraulic Engineering Society, Vice Chairman of Hydraulic Engineering Education Committee at the Ministry of Education, and Member of Technical Committee on Capacity Building of the International Commission on Large Dams.   Prof. Duruo Huang isAssociate Professor and Associate Head of Department of Hydraulic Engineering at Tsinghua University. Her primary research interests are in dam engineering and engineering seismology, with emphases on innovate dam construction material, seismic performance of high dams, earthquake ground motion characterization and seismic ground response analysis. She is principle investigator of researches funded by National Natural Science Foundation of China and State Key Laboratory of Hydroscience and Engineering. She published more than 50 SCI papers. Presently, she is member of technical committees of International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), and editorial board of International Journal of Ocean and Coastal Engineering. She maintains an active consulting practice to assist engineering firms with problems in dam design and earthquake engineering. She was awarded Outstanding Young Scholars Award of Tsinghua University (top honor for faculty members under 35 years old) in 2020, Bright Spark Lecture Award by ISSMGE in 2020, National Thousand Talents Plan Professorship for Young Scholars in 2018, and Ringo Yu Prize for Best Ph.D. Thesis in Geotechnical Studies in 2017.
