H = Max. Head of Water on Sill = 13.38 ft.

R = Skin Plate radius ( Measured on the wet surface. )
Dm = Difference bettween the elevation of the water level and center of curvature
of Skin Plate.

Ds = Difference between the elevations of Center of Curvature of the Skin Plate and
the Water Level ( for Weir Gates )
Di = Difference between the elevations of Center of Curvature of the Skin Plate and
the sill.
Note ; - a) Dm , Ds , & Di refer to Difference of the elevations and may assume
positive or Negative sign , depending on the gate arrangement.
b) The angle as & ai are taken in radians and can also assume a
positive or Negative sign.

W = √W h +W v Ref. 1 Eq. 4.19 Page 103
β = arc tan W v / W h Ref. 1 Eq. 4.20 Page 103

In our case ;
B = 26.83 ft.
R = 19.680 ft.
Dm = 372.64 ft. - 374.28 ft. = -1.64 ft.
H = 372.64 ft. - 359.26 ft. = 13.38 ft.
h = 372.64 ft. - 359.26 ft. = 13.38 ft.
Ds = 374.28 ft. - 372.64 ft. = 1.64 ft.
Di = 374.28 ft. - 359.26 ft. = 15.02 ft.

Pin Friction
Fig : 2
The friction on supports and hinges is proportional to the water
load on the gate and the coefficient of friction of the surface in
contact. It is calculated by the equation.
Fa = µ Fh Eq. 9.1 Ref 1 Page 226
Where Fh = Max . Horizontal thrust on each Trunnion pin
µ = Coefficient of friction
Let the pin diameter is equal to 6 in. and coefficient of
friction between two metals as 0.30 for steel bronze under
static conditions (Table 9-1 Ref 1 page 226) the max horizantal
thrust on the pin will be when the gate is fully closed and full head is acting.
Max.Thrust = 5.59 Kips/ft.

Force for both Pins per gate = 5.59 x 26.83
= 149.92 Kips
Force of Friction = 0.30 x149.92

The friction factor between rubber and steel is 1.0 in the start
and 0.8 in running condition Ref. 1 Page 228
Total seal friction = 1.0 x F x Sector length
Arc length or Sector length = 15.45 ft.

Support of vertical Beams is made on the main horizontal girders, where the arms are
also connected. In more recent designs ,the use of two pairs of arms per gate prevails,which
results in vertical beams with two supports.
The vertical beams may be dimensioned as straight ones , supported on the main H.girders
and subjected to a triangular load (Weir gates)
For Weir Gates with two pairs of radial arms the load diagram is as follows

H.P = Horse Power Required To Lift the Gate.

N = Revolution of Rope Drum per minute = 12 x 2 = 0.318

Bending Stress f due to Concentrated Load. = M/S
