In this study a recent dam type, concrete face rockfill dam (CFRD), its design and behaviour is overviewed. The design features of Gö / kç / eler Dam are introduced as a case study. Selection of concrete face rockfill type for Gö / kç / eler Dam Project is discussed together with the other two alternatives, namely earth core rockfill (ECRD) and roller compacted concrete (RCC) dam. Gö / kç / eler Dam type selection as concrete face rockfill dam is also verified by an economic analysis conducted calculating internal rate of return for all alternative types. In cost analysis a currency independent defined unit cost (DUC) is specified to verify the time independent validity of the economic analysis.
