Abstract
The Shihmen Embankment Dam is the key element in Taiwan's $80,000,000 Shihmen Reservoir Project. The dam is located on the Takekan Creek, Taoyuan, which is west of the city of Taipei (the capital of Taiwan) as shown in Fig. 1. Other significant elements in this major multiple-purpose water resources development project are the reservoir, spillway, powerplant, afterbay and weir, irrigation canal systems, and the water supply system and treatment plant (a brief layout of the immediate project vicinity is shown in Fig. 2 and the irrigation benefited areas are shown in Fig. 3).
