Need calc help with a Dam feat

A character by the name Kentaro had, by Sams own words, "catapulted" himself into a dam to restore water to their large village. The dam should be at least average in size to hold that much water back. I need to know the value for frag and violent frag. The only thing i have is the material being concrete.

perhaps you can use his body's area to calculate the range of the wall he would need to V Frag and thus get an energy value assuming he blows a hole in the dam causing water to come forth?
If you have a visual illustration of the feat it might potentially make the feat much stronger depending on how much of it he destroyed

We don't sadly, and asking for a commission art piece of that seems like its against some rules, so until a flashback thingy, we can only make reasonable assumptions, I'll try my hand at calcing it

do you know what the frag for concrete is? if thats even the thing i need for it...

What no, you weren’t asked for commissioned art, sometimes adaptations like anime and live action tv shows or even artwork illustrate feats that would help gauge the actual power of the characters, without them you’re outta luck

This is Vfrag for concrete, and fragmentation is right infront of it in the left side

how do I know how much he destroyed? do i just use his height and assume that? because then it seems small
You’ll just have to use his bodily area, that’s all you can do for now, if he rammed into it like a canon ball you’ll have to sadly lowball the feat even more

Problem I just remembered, what were older dams made with? because we know Kentaro has been around for at least over a century, and I dont know if I should use some sort of wood for that, or what. Maybe 2 different calcs both assuming the low and high end for concrete and wood or whatever Japan used?
 
Is there anyone I could talk to about helping me to get a height for Kentaro?
Use average adult male height

For the amount of destruction he would have done, you need dam thickness x area of human male

With those values you get volume of destruction done, if you have a picture of kentaro I can help you pixelscale him to get a proper value

If he has a stated height use that
 
So theres 2 problems,
1. hes taller than Sam who the Erma wiki says is 6ft but has no source on that and while Brandon does draw idealistic people, IDK about it, he does seem very tall tho
2. the reason this is a problem is that the same wiki says that erma is roughly around 3ft, but no source either, she also seems a little less than half of her fathers height
3. I use erma as a ruler for kentaro due to her being the height of his head, but if the math maths out, the oni that supposedly dwarfs a 6ft man suddenly is only like 5 ft 10
heres some of the images I used, including the ones I edited to try figuring out myself

Ngl just use the bowl to base his head height and then later body height
