Spillway for Folsom Dam, American River, California: Hydraulic Model Investigation
The spillway for Folsom Dam, flow over which will be controlled by eight gates, was studied concurrently on two almost identical 1:80-scale models. Two models were necessary because of the urgent need for a decision as to the type energy dissipator to use at the toe of the spillway. A flip-bucket type energy dissipator was investigated on one model while a conventional type stilling basin was tested on the other.
