DESCRIPTION

Existing gravity concrete dam, for water supply and irrigation purposes, located in Béchar (Algeria). The dam is 37 m high and stores 360 hm3. The existing spillway is uncontrolled with modified Creager profile and has insufficient capacity.

AQUALOGUS analyzed hydraulic and structural safety conditions and proposed measures to rehabilitate the dam, including increasing the capacity of the reservoir and constructing a complementary spillway.
