Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) technology and its implications for planning and evaluation of hydropower projects are described. The experience of several project owners with RCC structures that have entered service or are in the construction and planning stage are presented. Lower costs, shortened construction times, and improved project quality are being realized with the use of RCC. Mixture specifications, concrete placement approaches, and dam specifications are outlined.
