【 摘 要 】

The paper presents specific example of method of intensification of ash impoundment. The impoundment for permanent bedding of ashes is situated on the left side of the Danube river. Part of the dam system of impoundment is based upon the original flood bank of Danube river. At the selection of materials for elevation of the impoundment, the decision was made primarily according to two indicators with an economic aspect-the transportation distance and the increase of the accumulation volume of the impoundment. Finally, the decisive criterion was the occurrence of the failure rate of the ash dam systems in comparison with the dams built from loess soils. As the impoundment is situated in the immediate vicinity of the Danube river, safe and failure-free operation has the priority. There is compared the geotechnical characteristics of the loess soils in the original deposition and the loess soils compacted at optimum water content by Proctor Standard compaction test. The proposed method of intensification of ash impoundment is analyzed. The stability analysis provides an example of the utilization of the results of the monitoring of the geotechnical properties of the materials forming the impoundment's body and the surrounding rock mass.
