Navigation locks -- Navigation lock gates and valves
Model studies for McNary, Ice Harbor, W.F.George, New Poe, and Hold locks have helped develop details of tainter valve design that show promise of satisfactory performance; operational experience at several new locks reveals weaknesses of seal and trunnion anchorage design, and emphasizes need for valve synchronization at moderate to high head locks; need for emergency closure gates must be determined for each lock individually and is best satisfied by vertical lift or submerged tainter gates.
