Most dams built in France up to the middle of the 20th century are brick dams. This article is an historical analysis of the evolution of their design, the damage they have been submitted to, and the adopted restoration techniques. After a thorough description of the diagnostic method used on these old dams, three aspects are particularly developed: - the verification of their stability and the consolidation techniques; - the reinforcement of their tightness defaults; - the revision of design floods and the increase capacity of by-channels. This summary gives a good perspective of existing techniques used to improve the safety of brick dams and their field of application. However, several questions are raised on how to fight, at reasonable ...
