Tarbela Dam is one of the world’s largest earth and rock filled Dam. Greatest water resources The Dam is built on one of the World’s largest rivers – the Indus known as the “Abbasin” or the father of rivers The World Bank accepted Tarbela Dam Project in 1965 WAPDA was entrusted with its execution on behalf of Govt. of Pak General consultant of WAPDA is HAZARA ENGINEERING COMPANY Built between 1968 and 1976 Project Consists of a 9,000 (2,743 meters) long. It has a volume of 138,600,000 cubic yards (106,000,000 cubic m). Reservoir capacity of 11,098,000 acre-feet (13,690,000,000 cubic m). The dam is 469 feet (143 m) high. The Dam is 8,997 feet (2,743 m) wide at its crest. The total spillway capacity is 1,500,000

Project report

PracticalProfileofSpillwaY When the profile for the crest of the ogee spillway is plotted over the triangular profile the section of a gravity dam (non-overflow section) ,it is found that it goes beyond vie downstream face of the dam , thu requiring thickening of the section for the spillway . However,this extra concrete can be saved by shifting the curve of the nappe in a backward direction until this curve becomes tangential to the downstream face of the dam . Design of spillway Design an ogee spillway for concrete gravity dam, for the following data : (1) Average river bed level = 100.0 m (2) R.L. of spillway crest =204.0 m (3) Slope of d/s face of gravity dam = 0.7 H : 1 V (4) Design discharge = 8000 cumecs (5) Length of spillway = 6 spans with a clear width of 10 m each. (6) Thickness of each pier = 2.5 m If h/Hd is greater than 1.7 than high spillway so effect of velocity is neglected The co-ordinates from x = 0 to x = 27.4 m are worked out in the table below :

Long lines of cars, buses and trucks in low gear wind along the two-lane road down one steep side of Black Canyon and up the other. The lines stop frequently as carloads of tourists crane their necks at the grandeur of the site, and drivers search for a parking space among the tiers of overlooks. For all the conges? tion, few motorists seem impatient or interested in searching maps for alternate routes. Everyone driving in this vicinity must know that U.S. High? way 95, which arcs along the crest of the dam, is the only road across the Colorado River between Davis Dam, over 50 miles to the south, and Nava jo Bridge, over 150 miles to the east. Pedestrians move about the top of the dam at a snail's pace in the desert heat, crisscrossing the crest over which, by design, no water has ever flowed. Several thousand tourists may visit Hoover Dam on a summer day, most of them standing in long lines to board the large elevator that takes them, 20 at a time, 600 feet down into the inner workings of the dam. Many come from Las Vegas, 35 miles to the northwest. Even there, amid all the noise and neon, a visit to Hoover Dam is hawked as one of the area's must-do things. The pitch may be engineering achieve? ment as awesome entertainment, but few who visit the works at Black Canyon seem disappoint? ed by the decided calmness and harmony of it all. Just as the Mississippi River wreaked havoc in the Midwest last summer, so the Colorado River used to be alternately a blessing and a bane for the Southwest. Although the Colorado seemed a pot ...
