Abstract:The potential for failure processes impacting transportation embankments temporarily impounding water has not been a common consideration in the design and management of these structures. However, changes in water elevations due to land development and climate change has prompted concern about impoundment on seepage rates and overall stability of the constructed embankments. This study was conducted to examine how different aspects of dam safety can be incorporated in transportation embankment management. Evol… Show more
