You do not place CSS files in the DAM. CSS/JS files go into clientlibs. See this AEM doc topic:

http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/current/developing/clientlibs.html

DAM stores digital assets such as videos and graphics. We have many articles and documentation on how to use DAM.

For more information about the DAM -- see:

http://wem.help.adobe.com/enterprise/en_US/10-0/wem/dam/dam_documentation.html

This one talks about how to upload files to the DAM:

this one talks about how to upload batch files to the DAM:

To learn how to develop a component that uses DAM assets - see this article. It uses DAM assets and JQuery to build an AEM component that builds an engaging experience:

You do not need to use WebDev to place files in the dam either. You can do it from the UI or code (as shown in the above articles). But, as I stated at the beginning - do not store CSS files in the DAM.
