In reservoirs of Armenia with total capacity about 1.4 milliard m3 is concentrated, more than 75% of above mentioned amount of water in 20 reservoirs. The reservoirs with technical parameters and class of hydraulic structures (dams) are considered essential and refer to the most responsible hydraulic structures. On proposal of IGES NAN RA for technical modernization projects of the reservoirs seismic engineering system on the dams were obtained on required conditions. This article includes tests and the main results of seismic engineering monitoring of dams and reservoirs.
