Design of Ogee Spillway

DESIGN OF OGEE PROFILE
DESIGN NOTE:
UPSTREAM & DOWN STREAM PROFILE OF CREST
Markandeya dam is 47 m high and has six spillway radial gates with maximum discharging capacity of 3738 cumec. The
spillway has standard WES(Waterways Experiment Station of U.S Army Engineers) with u/s face has 3H:3V slope and
d/s ogee conforming to following equation:
X 1.78 = 1.852 H d0.78Y I
Where H d =Design head in "m"= 8.00 m in this case
The profile on the upstream is intended to add more weight on stability consideration.
X & Y are co-ordinates of ogee profile with respect to crest as axis and down ward being positive & right side is
+ve as indicated in the figure below.

The upstream profile is conforming to the table given below:

The d/s slope "m" of dam is fixed as= 0.800 H:1V for stability consideration.
Th etangent point between ogee profile and the d/s slope is obtained by differentiating the ogee profile equation with
respect to x and equating the slope to the d/s slope of dam
I.e.,
Differentiating equation -I with respect to x we get,

Therefore X-cordinate of tangent point= 11.205 m
& Y - coordinate from the crest, using the equation -I, = 7.869 m
with crest level at 696.00 m the elevation of tangent point= 688.131 m

ENERGY DISSIPATOR:
The site is not suited for energy dissipator such as ski-jump bucket or roller bucket since the bed of the river is
highly jointed and impingement of jet or hydraulic rollers may result in the deep scour.
U.S.B.R. stilling Basin -II is proposed for th energy dissipating system for the following reasons
1 There is daequate depth of tailwater
2 The velocity of water entering the basin is more than 18m/s
3 The discharge per metre length is more than 5.7 cumec.
4 The Froud's No. of flow=F1>4.5
5 The IS4997-1968(4th print 1985) gives guidelines for stilling basin-II conforming
to the above requirement, but there is provision for the basin blocks and length of
stilling basin is given considering the basin blocks. However clause 4.3.5 suggests
that the basin blocks are not recommended if velocity of flow is greater than 15m/s in
which case the length of basin can not be obtained from given figure (8A) for basin
Therefore USBR stilling basin-II is adopted with increased length of basin.
6 In the Hydraulic Designs Of Stilling basins & Energy Dissipators (U.S.D.I.B.R) By-A.J.Peterka
the basin -II is well suited to discharges more than 14 cumec./m length , and the
baffle/basin blocks if provided in the stilling basin may result in low pressure on the
d/s of basin block which in turn result in cavitation problems.
7 The plan enclosed indiacte the lay out of the USBR Stilling Basin-II which is similar to stilling
basin given by IS4997 except for the basin block.
The drawing shown vide by K.N.N.Ltd , Irrigation(N) is for stilling basin-II with basin blocks and
length of basin is 48.00m. This will have to revised.

The details of the various components are as enclosed in the table.
The thickness of basin is based on the assumption that the edges are clamped with anchor rods for
two different cases with uplift at MWL condition and varrying from maximum uplift at heel and
mnimum(Max.TWL-BL) uplift at the end of stilling basin.
The uplift at toe is computed for designing the thickness of floor.
By way of drainage arrangements thickness for various releases are calculated.
Depth of anchor rods are computed for following cases:
1 The tension within the permissible limit
2 The bond strength between grout and the anchor rod is with in permissble value of 6 kg/sq.cm
3 The bond strength between grout and the rock is with in permissble value of 4 kg/sq.cm
4 The submerged weight of rockcone formed by the anchor rod depth is greater than uplift force
