The article shows the main causes of accidents dams, including the effect influence
of the undermining of territories. The aim of this work was to evaluate the possibility the
formations in the model of the dams a cracks with certain areas of their distribution, as well as
the degree of influence of reinforcement on their overall stability. Failure analysis shows that
the reliability of these types of structures is different and depends on the uptime of individual
subsystems. For soil dams, the largest number of failures is associated with filtration problems
in the body and foundation of the dam during emergency floods. The decrease in stability and
the increase in the development of crack formation during deformation of the soil base is
greater, the greater the horizontal and vertical deformation of the soil. The effect of the
reinforcing effect during stretching of the soil base, i.e. reinforcing the soil dam with
geotextiles significantly affects the increase in stability and the decrease in the development of
cracking during deformation of the soil base.
