Preliminary and final design for the rehabilitation works of Beauregard dam in Valgrisenche, AO.
The oroginary structure is of arch-gravity type with a double curvature, 132 m of height, 394 m of crest length.
The downstream left bank, near the dam, is affected by a deep gravitative deformation of the slope. The interventions settled with an “Administrator delegated for urgent interventions regarding Beauregard dam” concern the removal of a risk situation with new water levels of the reservoir.
Studies, analysis and numerical models have defined the efficiency of an altimetric reduction of 52 m of the existent structure. This reduction coincides to 150.000 m3 of concrete volume to be demolished.
The works have covered:
The works were completed in compliance with the contractual times and in 2018 they were tested in accordance with Art. 14 of the Dams Regulation.
