Dams
Maintaining dam infrastructure is critical to protecting the people, surrounding environment, and purposes they serve. When the integrity of a dam is threatened, WJE engineers and material scientists can find the right solution. Our experts work directly with critical infrastructure owners or as significant contributors to larger project teams to develop solutions for ongoing deterioration, construction defects, and structural integrity issues within dam structures.
Our professionals work to mitigate the risks dams can pose to their environment by participating in the assessment, investigation, and repair of regulated dams. We have consulted on the investigation of many of the United States’ most significant structural failures, determining the cause, extent of damage, and providing emergency and long-term repair solutions. We apply this expertise during durability assessments to proactively identify elements that may be of concern to the future integrity of a structure.
