the increase in stress for worst loading cases shall be limited to 25% only.
The allowable design stress level for various components of hydraulic hoist
shall conform to the requirement of IS 10210. However for buckling of piston
rod of hydraulic cylinder, a factor of safety of 3.5 shall be adopted. The
embedded parts of gates shall be designed to limit the bearing pressure on

considered for the design of dogging devices, Hoist and crane structures, with
normal allowable stresses. A corrosion allowance of 1.5 mm shall be adopted
for steel liners, which also include pressure shaft liners.
The penstock liners shall be designed for the full internal pressure
corresponding to maximum surge level including water hammer. The liner
shall also be designed for external pressure with a safety factor (buckling
factor) of 1.5 and the concrete lining gap to be adopted as per IS Codes or as
per Standard practice. The liners shall also be checked for external pressure
due to concrete grouting, filling and dewatering. The liners may also be
provided with stiffeners, if required to resist buckling due to external water
pressure and handling stresses.

Spacing and size of stiffener rings shall be determined in accordance with the
AMSTUTZ equations for a stiffened liner.
The steel plates to be used for penstock steel liners shall be pressure vessel
quality plates and conform to IS: 2002 Grade-3 /ASTM A 516 Gr.70 or
