Dams and Spillways Sectional Committee, WRD 09

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Dams and Spillways Sectional Committee had been approved by the Water Resources Division Council.
Spillways are devices provided in conjunction with dams to pass surplus water for reservoir regulation and
safety. Various types of spillways include overflow, shaft or morning glory, siphon, chute, side channel, tunnel
spillway, etc. The overflow type is by far the most common one. The usual form of overflow spillway has a
rounded crest with an ogee profile.
This standard was first published in 1973 and revised in 1998. This revision incorporates the latest practices
being followed in the field, the major changes being in clause 6 dealing with ogee profile for spillway with breast
wall.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : I960
‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. )’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off
values should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
