Ohori et. al. (2013) mentioned Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) applied to check dams was possible to detect weak region of strength of concrete. To clarify3]D image of surface displacement and distribution of internal clacks in the dam, this article shows that application of SfM]MVS and GPR to a check dam (Sabo dam) with clacks by a debris flow which was occurred in Nagiso Chou, Nagano Prefecture at July 9, 2014. Because a catch dam is concrete structure, GPR is assumed to be a good investigation tool in order to earn3]D mapping data of internal clacks. Another merits of GPR is portability and easy]to]use in fields. Our result shows the clacks are categorized as mainly three types:1) a large clack which possibly cause a dam collapse, 2) complexity shape of clacks, and 3) a small size of clacks. Applicable range of our study is that800MHz GPR clearly traces continuous clacks inside a concrete dam at least less than1.0m depth.

Key wordsFGround Penetrating Radar (GPR), SfM]MVS, catch dam (Sabo dam), debris flow, Nagiso Chou.
