Manual Explaining Design Procedures and Construction Methods for Reinforcing Reservoir Embankments with Steel Released
農研機構は、高知大学自然科学系理工学部門の原忠教授、日本製鉄株式会社、株式会社エイト日本技術開発との共同研究の成果として、「鋼材によるため池堤体補強工法設計・施工マニュアル」を2025年11月14日にウェブサイトで公開しました。
With the enforcement of the Act on Special Measures for Promoting Disaster Prevention Works Related to Priority Agricultural Reservoirs (Note 1), reservoir renovation projects are being carried out in a systematic and concentrated manner nationwide. This manual systematically organizes and generalizes the design procedures and construction methods for reinforcement techniques that improve water-tightness and seismic resistance by driving steel sheet piles or steel pipes into the reservoir embankment.
This enables the efficient and reliable design and construction of the "double-sheet pile method," thereby contributing to improved safety in reservoirs.

(Note 1) Agricultural reservoirs designated as disaster prevention priority sites
Reservoirs where the presence of houses, public facilities, or other structures within the potential flood zone in the event of a breach poses a risk of human casualties or other harm. As of the end of March 2025, 52,380 such reservoirs have been re-designated (Source: Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries website ).
