    Spillway for Gavins Point Dam, Missouri River, Nebraska: Hydraulic Model Investigation

    Hydraulic performance of the Gavins Point spillway was studied in a 1:60-scale model. Test results demonstrated the need for a dike at the left abutment of the spillway to improve flow conditions, and verified the adequacy of the spillway weir and stilling basin. The only change effected in the stilling basin was the reduction of end sill height from 14 ft to 9 ft.
