Even in deep waters, there’s always a force lifting you up Dams are structures built across a stream to impound water for future purpose such as hydropower, water for drinking, water for daily use especially in cities where the demand of water is very large. • Arch Dam – A concrete or masonry dam which is curved upstream. • Buttress Dam – A dam consisting of a watertight part supported at intervals on the downstream by a series of buttresses. • Coffer Dam – A temporary structure enclosing all or part of the construction area so that construction can proceed in the dry.
