Buttress Dams

Buttress Dams is a type of concrete dam characterized by a watertight upstream face supported at intervals by a series of inclined or vertical buttresses that transmit the water load to the foundation, distinguishing it from other concrete dams by its reduced material usage and structural reliance on the buttressing system.
