Abstract
In the close vicinity of the great shock, March 4, 1977, in Vrancea region, Romania, one of the biggest shocks felt recently in Europe, two rockfill dams 120 m and, respectively, 70 m high with clayey cores are being constructed. In the paper, some problems arised by the design of these dams from earthquake engineering point of view are presented.
