Reinforced concrete is commonly used at dams to construct spillways (control section, training walls, chute slab, piers for gated structures, etc.), stilling and impact basins, parapets, intake towers, outlet structures, and various other appurtenances. These structures can be subjected to significant loads and deterioration over time. Reinforced concrete structures must be designed for safe operation throughout the life of the dam. Also referred to as structural concrete, reinforced concrete "is defined as concrete which will normally be placed in reinforced structural elements such as beams, columns, walls, and slabs that have dimensions such that heat generation is not a problem."
