Global Concrete Dams Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

The concrete buttress dam also uses its weight to resist the water force.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Concrete Dams market finds that the global Concrete Dams market reached a value of USD 4103.3 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 5074.53 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.6% during the forecast period.

Region Overview:

From 2023-2028, China is estimated to witness robust growth prospects.

Company Overview:

POWERCHINA is one of the major players operating in the Concrete Dams market, holding a share of 13.3% in 2023.

Segmentation Overview:

Among different product types, Roller Compacted Concrete Dam segment is anticipated to contribute the largest market share in 2028.

Roller Compacted Concrete Dam

It is a concrete dam formed by paving and rolling layer by layer with super-dry hard concrete, referred to as RCCD or RCD. Roller compacted concrete dam is a new type of dam that uses rolling equipment and technology for earth-rock dams in concrete dam construction. The hydraulic design, section design, stability and stress analysis of RCC dams are the same as those of normal concrete dams, but there are different forms and methods in terms of materials, structure and construction.

Normal Concrete Dam

Normal concrete dams have a small amount of work, but compared with roller compacted concrete dams, they require more water and cement, complex preparations, and high cost. Therefore, RCC dams have developed rapidly in recent years.

Prefabricated Concrete Dam

The use of prefabricated components can eliminate the cofferdam and speed up underwater construction. The installation of prefabricated concrete components requires close cooperation between high-level and underwater workers. It can be done from the side of the dam itself.

Application Overview:

By application, the Gravity Dam segment occupied the biggest share from 2018 to 2022.

Gravity Dam

A gravity dam is a large-volume water-retaining structure built by concrete or mortar masonry. Its basic cross-section is a right-angled triangle, and the whole is composed of several dam sections. Mainly through the dam body weight to maintain stability. According to statistics, among the dams built in various countries, gravity dams account for a large proportion of various dam types.

Massive Head Buttress Dam

The Massive Head Buttress Dam does not provide a flat plate or arch on the upstream surface, but expands the supporting head and connects it to the adjacent supporting head. In this way, all the vaults form a solid water support surface. The enlargement of the support head can adopt different shapes, such as a diamond shape, a circle shape, etc. Compared with other types, Massive Head Buttress Dam is easier to construct.

Arch Dam

The arch dam bends upstream from the top view, and transfers all or part of the water pressure to the bedrock on both sides of the valley with the help of the arch. The arch dam is most suitable for narrow canyons or canyons, and the steep, stable rock wall can support the structure and stress. Because it is much thinner than any other dam type, it requires relatively few building materials, making it more economical and practical in remote areas.
