Most Swiss dams were built between the 1950s and 1970s for the purpose of electricity generation. Their behavior is monitored by a surveillance organization defined by the Dam Ordinance. The four levels of surveillance consist of dam operator, a qualified professional, two experienced experts in the fields of civil engineering and geology, and the dam section of the federal energy office. As part of the presentation, various case studies highlight the operation of this surveillance organization from the perspective of an N2 engineer (qualified professional) working for a dam owner.
