Fremont Drop Structure and Friction Channel, Sandusky River, Ohio. Hydraulic Model Investigation
Investigations were conducted to determine the adequacy of a drop structure or a friction channel to provide flood control and fish passage facilities in a reach of the Sandusky River near Fremont, Ohio. The drop structure investigation was concerned with its discharge characteristics, performance of the stilling basin, the openings required for fish passage facilities, and various plans of protective stone. Modifications of the original design structure improved hydraulic performance and reduced construction costs. These modifications included: lengthening the stilling basin and depressing the apron, replacing the concrete pavement downstream of the end sill with stone, providing satisfactory fish passage facilities by means of an alternate weir arrangement, reducing the width of the channel below the structure, and using a trapezoidal rather than a rectangular structure. Four types of friction channels were investigated, one of which provided the desired stages, velocities, and conditions required for fish passage. (Author)
