Rubber dams – air-filled vs water-filled, Civil Engineering

Assignment Help:

Most of the existing rubber dams are of air-filled types. Water-filled rubber dams aren't preferred for the below reasons:

(i)  By giving same sheet length and dam height, tensile stress for water-filled dams is higher than air-filled rubber dams.

(ii) A significant size of water pond is generally provided for water-filled water dams for filling the rubber dams at the time of rising operation of dams.
