A dam network was created in 1992 and 1993 in Switzerland. It encompasses 29 accelerographs placed in the dams of Mauvoisin (250.5 meter high arch dam, 12 instruments), Punt-dal-Gall (130 meter high arch dam, 7 instruments), Grande-Dixence (285 meter high gravity dam, 6 instruments) and Mattmark (120 meter high embankment dam, 4 instruments). The aim is to observe the free-field motions at the dam sites, the motions at the abutments and the dams’ dynamic responses and characteristics. Array configurations and instrument specifications were developed based on the stated objectives. Earthquake events have been recorded at the dams.
