| Abstract: | Willow Creek Dam was the world's first all rolled concrete structure designed and built specifically with the no-slump rolled mix. The design intent, assumptions, procedures, and studies are described in the appropriate Corps of Engineers design memoranda. Articles published in Civil Engineering (April 1982), Concrete International (October 1982), Engineering News Record (October 1982), and elsewhere contain summaries of design and initial construction plans. This report specifically addresses concrete and related operations during construction, results of routine construction testing, special testing during construction, and initial reservoir and dam performance. It also includes recommendations for future roller-compacted concrete (RCC) construction. A construction history covering all phases of the project is under preparation. |
