As the earthquake shakes the earth affects the body of the dam and annex structures and all hydromechanical and electromechanical components, etc. Of a dam project at the same time, the seismic load case is probably the most difficult for dam engineers. Thus, all these elements must be able to withstand some degree of seismic action. Less than ten large embankments, buttresses and concrete dams have been severely damaged during earthquakes and no loss of life has been reported as a direct consequence of a dam failure. This very favourable record may be due to the fact that few modern dams have been exposed to strong earthquakes. During the 2001 earthquake in Bhuj in India, about 245 reservoirs - most of them small dams used for irrigation and water supply - were damaged. 
Fortunately, the reservoirs were almost empty at the time of the earthquake and, therefore, more damage could be avoided. There is little experience of the seismic performance of modern RCC and concrete dams, which are being built in increasing numbers today. A qualitative assessment of the expected behavior of the earthquake of these new types of dams is given. The work done by the Committee of Seismic Aspects of the Design of Dams of the International Commission of Large Dams (ICOLD) is presented and its role in the harmonization of seismic design criteria is discussed. Finally, the need for emergency planning and water alarm systems for important dam projects is discussed. By issuing a timely warning, virtually all people in the floodplain can be saved. The experience with the water alarm in Switzerland is discussed where 65 dams are equipped with such a system. The first installations were already made more than 50 years ago.
