Abstract
The drainage system of a dam depends mainly of the available granular material founded near the dam site and it’s quantities. In some cases, the use of natural granular materials can reach an impracticable cost considering the transportation and the required quality of the material. Geosynthetic materials and, in particular, drainage geocomposites offers constructive alternatives to traditional solutions on internal drainage systems. This paper discusses the design and construction of a geosynthetics system, and presents a case in which a traditional granular material drainage system was successfully replaced by a geocomposite drainage system
