	The dam can also be inspected for signs of water leakage underneath which can gradually create an unstable cavity. Concrete dams are built with inspection galleries running through them in the form of a tunnel. These are used by engineers to inspect the condition of the dam from the inside as well as the outside. They examine for any signs of potential problems with the foundation, water leakage, or movement.

	Embankment dams can show cracks and bulges on their downstream and upstream faces, which can indicate instability. The appearance of hollows can indicate that the dam has been being overtopped by floodwater with it proceeding to erode the downstream slope.
