El Cajon Dam,Mezico.Further Data About Its Behavior And a Quick Analyses of a Pragmatic Design Approach
El Cajón dam,Mexico,has a 188 m high concrete-face rockfill dam. A very extensive campaign of investigations was carried out for its design,as described in a previous paper1.Some additional data about his behavior after completion confirm the good results coming from a good theoretical design added to a pragmatical approach. The field investigations included two large test fills,which were fundamental to define the final design and construction specifications. The behavior of the dam,after completion,has been excellent.Some instrumentation results additional to the ones given in the original paper are presented here,as well as a description of how a more practical interpretation of the investigation results,supported by the suggestions of well-known consultants,resulted in important simplifications in construction specifications and design details,without impairing its performance.
