Ravedis Dam

The Ravedis Dam project represents a significant hydraulic engineering work located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Italy. The construction of the dam The construction of the dam was carried out in two phases , under the supervision of the Consortium for Water Resource Management of the Province of Pordenone, with the involvement of several companies specialized in the construction and hydraulic infrastructure sectors.

The dam, built on the Cellina stream, is a gravity concrete structure designed to perform multiple functions. With a height of about 70 meters and a crest length of 360 meters, the Ravedis Dam was primarily conceived for flood regulation and the management of water resources for irrigation and drinking purposes.

The technologies used and the materials employed, such as high-strength concrete, have ensured the durability and robustness of the dam. Additionally, the integration of advanced monitoring systems allows for constant control of structural and environmental conditions, enabling timely interventions if necessary.

The utility of the Ravedis Dam extends beyond simple water management: it also contributes to the production of hydroelectric power, exploiting the created drop to generate electricity sustainably. Furthermore, the artificial basin formed upstream of the dam represents a recreational and natural resource for the region, enhancing the territory from both environmental and tourism perspectives.
