The process for creating a dam depends on the kind of dam, like a wooden or concrete one. For concrete dams, the main materials are concrete and steel reinforcements. The basic and most commonly used shapes to build dams include the buttress dam, the arch dam, the arch-gravity dam, and the multiple-arch dam.
