SITES 378 PROBLEM A. GIVEN: Drainage Area = 103 acres. Hazard Class = A1 RCN = 72 W/S length = 987’ with a slope of 2% Auxiliary Spillway Crest=Permanent Pool @ Elev. 103.6feet. No principal spillway Valley Floor Elevation - 88 feet

Rainfall: Design FBH = 8.95” Rain distribution: Read in a 24-hr duration, rain table No Principal Spillway Auxiliary Spillway located at 103.6 EL.
T = Total Hydraulic Stress – lb/ft2 T = Vegetal Stress + Effective Soil Stress T = Tve +Te Auxiliary Spillway has a CL material with PI=15 Allowable effective soil stress=0.05 lb/ft2
DAM CENTERLINE Centerline Dam Valley Profile Data: Station (ft.) /Elev. (ft.) 0/107 26/106 69/104.3 99/103 133/100.8 163/99.6 193/98.4 223/96.9 253/96.4 283/93.6 321/89.5 371/94 401/95.2 421/95.8 451/96.9 491/103.3 521/107
Embankment Data: Top Width = 12’ Upstream side slope = 4:1 Downstream side slope = 4:1 No Wave Berm Width No Stability Berms Crown = 0
Auxiliary Spillway Data: We want to do a Stability & Integrity Analysis of the Spillway. You set the crest at 103.6 Station at DS end of Crest = 620 Inlet length of the auxiliary spillway is about 230 ft. Profile or spillway inlet template data (x,y) (distance, drop): 50’/0’; 280’/3.0’ Bottom Width: 30 feet Spillway sideslope = 3:1 Spillway slope 3% (constructed exit channel)
280’ Tie-in Station 6+20 50’ 3’ Inlet Spillway Template Z = 3:1 BW = 30’
Spillway Geology and Vegetation Data: Material in spillway - Clay (CL) PI or (lw) = 18 The representative soil particle size D75 = 0.0024 inches Percent Clay = 28% (in material in spillway) Dry Density of the clay = 92 pcf Headcut Erodability Index = 0.1 Vegetative Retardance Curve Index = 5.6 (Inlet) Vegetative Retardance Curve Index = 5.6 (Outlet)
Assume 2 foot (2’) of rooting depth in spillway One foot (1’) of topsoil will be installed in the constructed channel. CL-PI=15 The topsoil D75 is 0.02”. Cover Factor (assume good) bromegrass = 0.7 - 0.8 Maintenance Code (assume good in constructed ) = 1 Maintenance Code (assume minor irr. in natural ) = 2
Coordinates of top of material: Sta. (ft.)/ Elev. (ft.) 100/85; 310/95; 410/106; 500/107; 700/106; 750/100; 930/95; 960/90; 1000/84
Erosion resistant soil @ 3% exit slope. Allowable velocity = 7.0 fps.
Smooth Bromegrass is a cool-season grass introduced into the United States from Hungary in 1884 -This leafy and sod-forming perennial spreads aggressively through both seeds and rhizomes. It grows 15 to 30 inches high and flowers during late spring and early summer in an open panicle.
T = Total Hydraulic Stress – lb/ft2 T = Vegetal Stress + Effective Soil Stress T = Tve +Te Allowable Vegetal Stress=Tva = 0.75 Ci Ci = Retardance Index @ Ci = 5.6 Tva = 4.2 lbs/ft2 - Allowable vegetal stress Ta= Allowable Total Hydraulic Stress=4.2 + .05= 4.25 lb/ft2
PART A FIND: Save Separate Files 1. Is this an acceptable pond design without a pipe? Y / N A. Top of Dam= _________ EL. B. Settled Volume= ____________ CY 2. Remove all vegetation. (HINT-n=.0156. For fine-grained, cohesive soils, the value of n is taken as 0.0156) Is this an acceptable pond design without a pipe? Y / N
PART B: Use PART A input as a start. This pond has gullies in the upstream area of the pool. Need to design a GSS for this site. Permanent Pool @ Elev. 100.0 ft. This will cover headcuts with 2.0 ft. of water. Crest of principal spillway = 100.0 ft EL. Volume of sediment between principal and aux spw = 0.0 AF. Rainfall: PSH=1 day = 7.5” Principal Spillway Data: (Single Stage Circular Conduit) Number of Conduits = 1 Length of Conduit = 114 feet Diameter of Conduit = 12” Conduit “n” = 0.013 Ke = 1.0 HGL at outlet of conduit = 89.5 feet. Riser weir length = 6.28 feet. (24 inch dia.)
No Wave Berm Width • No stability Berms • Crown = 1.0’ • Auxiliary Spillway Data: • We want to do a Stability & Integrity Analysis of the Spillway. Let the program set the crest of the auxiliary spillway. • What is the Auxiliary Spillway Crest (ASC) _________EL. • What is the Top of Dam (TOD) ____________EL. • What is estimated construction volume ________CY. • What is effective soil stress_____________lb/ft2. • What is the integrity distance for the spillway analyzed.
Part C Use Part B file as a start • Rainfall: PSH=1 day = 7.5” • Use a Hood Inlet with same diameter and pipe length as the pipe drop. • Distance to bend 100’ and bend to outlet 14’. • The elevation of the bend is 90 and the outlet is 89. • Say the Mannings “n” = 0.013 • Circular weir coeff. -- 0.6 • Entrance coeff. -- 1.0 • What is the Auxiliary Spillway Crest (ASC) _________EL. • What is the Top of Dam (TOD) ____________EL. • What is estimated construction volume ________CY.
Part D Use Part B input file as a start Add stability berm on the down stream side at 5’ with 25’ top width. Add a wave berm width =20’ on the front slope. 1. What is estimated construction CY?.
