Dams are some of the most spectacular achievements of modern industrial engineering. By their very size and complexity they represent veritable milestones in the field of engineering and have a major effect on their surroundings...
We are specialy indebted to Jean-Louis Bordes, who provided the texts, and to the firm Coyne & Bellier from which most of the pictures are coming.
