Hydraulic Structures_

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SMEC's staff have extensive experience in the design of a wide range of hydraulic structures associated with dams, river training, urban drainage and sewer systems. These include:

  • Spillways and energy dissipators; 
  • Litter and sediment traps; 
  • De-aeration chambers; 
  • Drop structures including vortex inlet drop structures used in sewerage systems to minimise aeration of flow and production of gasses; 
  • Pump intakes; 
  • Effluent outfalls for cooling water and sewage; 
  • Revetments, breakwaters, groynes and training walls.

SMEC's staff are familiar with the principles of fluid mechanics involved in the design of these hydraulic structures and have a variety of numerical analysis programs to assist in their design as well as fluid mechanics laboratory that can be used to assess scale models.
