The dam's failure was influential in the development of Italian dam design and risk assessment. [5] As a result of the accident, multiple arch dams fell out of favour. [4] A much smaller dam was built spanning the gap left by the collapse, and is still in use today, creating a minor reservoir. A memorial at the site commemorates the tragedy. [1]
