As the number of CFRD constructions increases, the necessity of an accurate assessment on its behavior also has been increasing. The performance of concrete faced rockfill dam (CFRD) under different water levels is a great concern of dam engineers and designers in the world. However, domestic research on CFRD design and construction has not been performed sufficiently. This study deals with three centrifuge model tests, mainly investigates quantitatively the deformation of the concrete faced slabs and settlements on the crest with different face slab stiffness. The prototype of a centrifugal model dam is half size of domestic CFRD dam. Detailed material preparation, model design, model set-up, model instrumentation and testing procedures are presented. In order to simulate the prototype concrete faced slab, three kinds of thin fiberglass plates with different thickness were adopted in three model tests. Finally, the centrifuge test results were compared with field measurements of domestic dams, which showed that the centrifuge tests were performed successfully.
