Dams VI : Diversion
Headworks
12.1 INTRODUcnON
Any hydraulic structure which supplies water to the off-taking
canal is called a headwork. Headwork may be divided into two
dasses :
1. Storage headwork.
2 Diversion headwork.
A storage headwork comprises the construction of a dam
across tbe river. It stores water during the period of excess supplies
in the river and releases it when demand overtakes available supplies_

a storage weir and a .dam is only in beight and the dUration for
which tbe supply is stored. A dam stores the supply for a romparatively
longer duration.
Barrage. The functio~ of a barrage is similar to that of weir,
but the heading up of water is effected by the gates alone (Fig.lll).
No solid obstruction is put across the r~. The crest level in tile
barrage is kept at a low level. During the floods, the pte5 are
raised to clear off the high flood level, enabling the bigh ftoocl 'io
pass downstream with maximum affiux. . When the Oood nx:fldes,
the gate,s are lowered and the flow is obstructed, tIlus raisin& Ibc
Vo'ater level to the upstream of the barrage. Due - to this, there
is less silting and better control over the lc..els. However, barrages
are much more costlier than the weirs.

Weirs are classified into two heads, dependirig upon the criterion
of the design of their floors.
1. Gravi ty weirs
2. Non-gravity weirs
A gravity weir is the one itl which the uplift pressure due
to the seepage of wate'r below the floor is resisted entirely by the
530
531
weight of floor_ In the non gravity type, the floor thickness is kept
relatively less, and the uplift pressure is largely resisted by the bending
action of the reinforced concrete ODOr.
Depending upon the material and certain design features gravity
weir (or simply weirs) can further be sub-divided into the following
lypes
3. Parabolic weir.
1. Vertical drop weir (Fig. 12.1). A vertical drop weir consists
of a vertical drop wall or crest wall, with or without crest gates.
At the upstream and downstream ends of the impervious floor, cutoff
piles are provided. To safeguard against scouring aCiion, launching
aprons are provided both at upstream and downstream end of the
floor. A graded inverted filter is provided immediately a t the
downstream end of the impervious floor to relieve the uplift pressure.
Vertical drop weirs are suitahle for any type of foundation.
2. Masonry or Concrete Slope Weir [Fig.12.4(a)]. Weirs of
this type are of recent origin. They are suitable for soft sandy foundations,
and are generally used where the difference in weir crest and downstream
river bed is limited to 3 metres, When water passes over such a
weir, hydraulic jump is fortned on the sloping glacis.

analysed over 200 dams, all over the world, and evolved his weighted
creep theory. Lane proposed a weight of three for vertical creep
and one for horizontal creep. Thus, the effective creep length is
calculated by multiplying the vertical offsets by 3 and adding it to
the horizontal length. His theroy, though an improvement over the
Bligh's theory, is empirical and lacked the background for a rational
basis of design.
Example U.1. Fig. 128 shows the section of a hydraulic structure
founded on sand. Calculate the average hydraulic gradient Also, find
tm uplift pressures at points 6, 12 and J8 m from the uls end of
the floor and foui the thickness of the floor at those points.

3. Bligh did .not explain the idea of exit gradient. The safety
against undermining cannot simply be obtained by ('.Qnsidering a flat
average gradient but by keeping this gradient well below critical.

From Eq. 1, any particular streamline can be determined by
giving a suitable value to u. To calculate the gradit!I1t diagram, we
must consider the first streamline AB which 'hugs' to the outline
of the floor. Since, the discharge between this line and the solid
floor is zero, the stream function u =0.
cosh u= cosh 0= 1
