Abstract：The grouting time and uplift control of the dam foundation need to be studied to prevent cracking and to ensure the long-term stability of high dams. A theoretical analysis, numerical simulations and an on-site monitoring feedback analysis were used to develop a partitioned equivalent grouting pressure vector and model for complex geological conditions. The model allows better control of the uplift and tensile stresses in the arch dam for better control of the grouting pressure and better chooses of the appropriate grouting times. The equivalent grouting pressure model was developed from construction monitoring data which was used to develop a feedback analysis for optimizing the grouting pressure with the optimal partitioned equivalent grouting pressure vector. The method was applied to the Baihetan dam foundation to verify that the method can accurately judge the uplift condition of the dam foundation and predict the optimal grouting timing. The study provides a valuable tool for selecting grouting times and for controlling the uplift deformation of similar projects.
