Abiquiu Dam was completed in February 1963. The spillway was modified and the embankment was raised in 1986. The project now consists of a 1,800-foot- long, 340-foot-high rolled earth filled dam with a 68-foot wide uncontrolled spillway located 4,000 feet north of the left abutment. Seepage through the abutments has been a problem since shortly after project completion. Supplemental grouting programs in 1966, 1978, and 1980; and drainholes drilled in 1966, 1977, 1979, and 1980 failed to provide adequate control of seepage. The adits were constructed to capture and provide controlled drainage of this seepage.

This study was conducted to identify methods that have been used in the repair and rehabilitation of concrete dams. Information was obtained through literary searches, discussions with project personnel, and visits to project sites. Each case history includes a background of the project, the deficiency that necessitated repair or rehabilitation, and descriptions of materials and methods used in the repair or rehabilitation. When available, the cost of the repair project and the performance of the repair to date have been included. Case histories included in this report cover a range of deficiencies in concrete structures, including cracking, spalling, erosion, leakage, inadequate PMF capacity, expansion resulting from alkali-aggregate reaction, instability, and insufficient storage capacity.
