Abstract: A stacked structure especially useful for storing water in the underground is formed of a plurality of skeleton members. Each skeleton member includes a plurality of skeleton parts extending in one direction and situated side by side in a lateral direction perpendicular to the one direction. Each skeleton part has one top portion, and two bottom portions extending from the top portion, wherein one bottom portion in one skeleton part is connected to one bottom portion in the adjacent skeleton part. Also, each skeleton part includes top recesses formed at the top portion to be spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval, and bottom recesses formed at the bottom portions to be spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval. The skeleton members form upper and lower skeleton members to be vertically stacked together. The skeleton parts of the upper and lower skeleton members extend perpendicularly to each other.

Abstract: An underground dam is formed of a water flow preventing wall for blocking a water permeable layer of soil to form a storing portion for storing underground water on an upper stream side relative to the water flow preventing wall. The water flow preventing wall has an opening, and an opening-closing device for opening and closing the opening is provided. Thus, the underground water on the upper stream side can be supplied to a down stream side through the opening.
