Supplementary Model Study of Stilling Basin for Spillway and Sluices, Fort Gibson Dam, Grand River, Oklahoma

Abstract

Subsequent to the model tests discussed in Technical Memorandum No, 192-1, entitled "Model Study of Spillway for Fort Gibson Dam, Grand River, Oklahoma," dated 15 January 1943, the plans for the Fort Gibson Project were changed by modification of the Spillway and stilling basin designs and the addition of ten sluices through a portion of the overflow section of the spillway, The modifications to the spillway and stilling basin involved lowering the crest elevation, increasing the length of the spillway and number of gates, and raising the elevation of the stilling basin. Following adoption of these alterations, it was thought desirable to check the adequacy of the structures as revised by means of model tests,
