The choice of Bhakra as the dam site was a product of both rigorous scientific analysis and remarkable natural advantages. The location features a narrow gorge on the Sutlej River, approximately 518.25 meters Long and 9.1 Meter Wide, bounded by massive, stable sandstone formations of the Lower Himalayas. This natural constriction provided an ideal foundation for a high concrete gravity dam, capable of efficiently resisting the immense hydrostatic pressure of the reservoir.

Polymer concrete is a composite material in which polymer binders replace lime-type cements as a binder. It’s formed by mixing polymers like epoxy, polyester, vinyl ester, or furan resins with aggregates such as silica, quartz, or granite. This results in a highly durable, non-porous material that is resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and weathering.

Structures are subject to multiple load types, each governed by Indian Standards. The main load categories include Dead Load, Live (Imposed) Load, Wind Load, and Earthquake (Seismic) Load. Dead loads and live loads are covered in IS 875 (Parts 1 and 2), wind loads in IS 875 (Part 3), and seismic loads in IS 1893. These codes specify how to calculate the magnitudes and distributions of loads and how to combine them for design.
