Spillways and stilling basins, Jackson dam, Tombigbee river, Alabama
Performance of gated and fixed crest spillways and stilling basins was studied on 1:50- and 1:36-scale section models; test results in aeration of discharge nappe on gated spillway, reduction in height of end sill, reduction in height of training wall, and replacement of apron type basin below fixed-crest spillway with circular bucket are given; original design was found satisfactory but riprap protection immediately upstream from gated spillway was recommended.
