    This document analyzes the stability of a concrete dam under different load combinations: 1. Load combination B calculates a factor of safety against sliding of 2.04. 2. Load combination C calculates stresses at the upstream and downstream faces of 18.051 t/sq.m and 53.297 t/sq.m respectively, with a factor of safety against sliding of 1.93. 3. Load combination D considers an earthquake force and calculates a total additional moment of 2211.1 t/m from the horizontal seismic force and 3.779 t/m·m from the vertical seismic force.
