Calculation of Forces
Force of Gravity of the Dam
Mass = 6.727*1010 kg
Upstream:
Depth = (1/3)*175 m = 58 m
Density of water = 1 kg/ m3
Downstream:
Depth = (1/3) * 83 m = 28 m
Pressure = 58 kg/m2
Pressure = 28 kg/m2

Mass Concrete
Mass concrete is any large volume of cast-in-place concrete with dimensions large
enough to require that measures be taken to cope with the generation of heat and
attendant volume change to minimize cracking

Heat of Hydration
Conservation of Energy:
The reaction creating the cement is reversed by the hydration process. This causes all of
the energy added to the compounds to produce the cement to be released again in the
reaction.
Dry Cement
No hardening properties
Compounds in nonequilibrium, high-energy
states
Hydrated Cement
Has hardening properties
Compounds move to
stable, low energy states
Produce heat as a byproduct
