Use of a rubber as a construction material is not new for us as it is widely used in the construction industry. But rubber can be used as a material for construction of dam or as a water retaining structure. In countries like Europe, Japan, Australia, USA rubber dams are constructed as its low construction cost and easy in its operation and maintenance. Our aim is to present actual calculations and various design aspects of rubber dam. In this we are going to put the future applications of rubber dam instead of bandhara, small dams, kt weirs etc. and its use for water irrigation. Rubber dams are flexible cylindrical inflatable structures attach to a rigid base and inflated by air or water this type of dam is being used for the past 40 years in river and coastal engineering application due to elasticity property of the structure and continuous variation of its shape during operation, rubber structural and hydraulic structure is more complicated than a rigid dam. There are number of rubber dam have been installed in worldwide for various purposes such as irrigation, water supply, flood control, electricity generation in hilly areas and maintain the ground water table near ground etc. Rubber dam is a new technology which control water in flexible way. Index Terms – Rubber Dam, Rubber Membrane.

Rubber Dam, Inflated rubber dam, Air fill rubber dam, Dam. etc.
