摘要

The International Commission on Large Dams is an international organization, with almost 100 member countries, that focuses on providing a forum for the exchange of knowledge and experience in dam engineering. ICOLD seeks to ensure that dams are built safely, efficiently, economically and without detrimental effects on the environment. Its original aim was to encourage advances in the planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance of large dams and their associated civil works by collecting and disseminating relevant information and by studying related technical questions.
