In the U.S., the most common type of dam is the embankment dam. These are large dams made out of soil and rock which use their weight to hold back water.To prevent water from moving through them, embankment dams also have a thick waterproof core. The Tarbela Dam in Pakistan is the worldâs largest embankment dam. reservoir is a man-made lake that is primarily used for storing water.
