Mishima Dam, Earth-fill dam in Kimitsu, Japan.

The Mishima Dam stretches across 127.7 meters in length and reaches a height of 25.3 meters, featuring a crushed stone exterior for protection against erosion.

Construction of this water management structure was completed in 1955, marking a significant development in the infrastructure of Chiba Prefecture.

The dam forms part of the Greater Tokyo Area infrastructure system, reflecting Japanese engineering methods in earth-fill dam construction.

Regular maintenance of the crushed stone facing and drainage systems ensures the continued stability and effectiveness of the water control structure.

The dam incorporates natural soil materials in its construction, with different layers of earth compacted to create an impermeable barrier.
