dc.description.abstractDam failures are catastrophic accidents resulting in property damage and loss of life. Risk prioritisation systems should be used in accordance with dam safety regulations to prevent these disasters. The purpose of this paper is to develop a risk assessment software which can be used by the decision makers for ranking of dams. Risk assessment was conducted on three embankment dams from Turkey to obtain information about the dam performance based on piping, earthquake, normal stability and flood failure modes. Parameters are incorporated into the programme to develop a new model that could predict variables such as breach width, dam failure time, side slope and peak breach discharge. The proposed tool gives flexibility to choose dam elements for describing the primary features of the evaluated dam; so users can make hazard categorisation of dams according to their risk level which is based on unique project conditions.
