As a high-efficiency and low-investment method of dam construction, blast-fill dams have been widely used in water conservancy, mining engineering, soil and water conservation, disaster prevention and other projects. Through collecting data on the main projects of the blast-fill dams, the characteristics and development trends of blast-fill dams are analyzed in detail. Meanwhile, the design requirements of impervious bodies in the initial and reinforcement stages are systematically reviewed. Subsequently, with measured data of a typical blast-fill dam, the structural characteristics of blast-fill dams after blasting and the validity of the phreatic line height after reinforcement are analyzed using the discrete element method. We conclude that an appropriate construction schedule and flexible impervious material are critical features of the impervious body for a dam with large deformation. When the dam deformation is stable, a secondary treatment should be considered for the impervious body to improve the dam safety. The design ideas for the impervious body of blast-fill dams are also applicable to other dam types with large deformation for risk reduction, such as high rockfill dams, soft-rock dams and tailings dams, and have a certain significance for reference in the treatment of landslides and confined lakes. |
