This paper discusses the finite element development of a numerical model of 3D elements for Cabril dam, based on the main fundamental parameters of the dynamic response of the dam, obtained on several experimental results on ambient vibration tests campaigns. These experimental results are used to calibrate the numerical model of 3D finite elements considering two hypothesis to simulate the hydrodynamic water pressure: i) first assuming that the is properly simulated through associated water masses, in accordance with Westergaard’s formula, and ii) second considering water finite elements.
