FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Dams and Spillways Sectional Committee had been approved by the Water Resources Division Council.
Spillways are devices provided in conjunction with dams to pass surplus water for reservoir regulation and
safety. Various types of spillways include overflow, shaft or morning glory, siphon, chute, side channel, tunnel
spillway, etc. The overflow type is by far the most common one. The usual form of overflow spillway has a
rounded crest with an ogee profile.
This standard was first published in 1973 and revised in 1998. This revision incorporates the latest practices
being followed in the field, the major changes being in clause 6 dealing with ogee profile for spillway with breast
wall.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : I960
). The number of significant places retained in the rounded off

values should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

4.3.2 The pier contraction coefficient, Kp is affected
by the shape and location of the pier nose, thickness
of the pier, the head in relation to the design head and
the approach velocity. Average pier contraction
coefficients may be taken as follows:

If sub-atmospheric pressures are to be avoided along
the crest, the shape of ogee downstream from the gate
sill should conform to the trajectory profile. The
adoption of a trajectory profile rather than a nappe
profile will result in a flatter profile and reduced
discharge efficiency under full gate opening. Where
the discharge efficiency is not important and a flatter
profile is needed from consideration of structural
stability, the trajectory profile may be adopted to avoid
sub-atmospheric pressures along the crest. When the
ogee is shaped to the ideal nappe profile for the
maximum head ((see 4.1.3.1 and 4.1.3.2), subatmospheric pressures would occur in the region
immediately downstream of the gate for small gate
openings. The magnitude and area of sub-atmospheric
pressures may be minimized by placing the gate sill
0.3 m to 1.0 m below the crest level, downstream of
the crest axis. Experiments have shown that under such
a condition the minimum crest pressures may range
from about 0.1 Hd for upstream water level at design
head to about 0.2 Hd for heads about 1.3 Hd. The ogee
profile may thus be designed considering the
magnitude of the minimum pressures.

depth of flow over the crest and moderately sized gates
an arrangement made possible by inclusion of a breast
wall. The spillway would allow the setting of its crest
at significantly lower elevation, yet retaining the choice
of a high dam for creating head for power generation.
Orifice spillways have been widely recognized as the
most appropriate especially for run-of-the-river
projects for handling both flood releases and flushing
of sediment. Orifice spillway is essentially large
capacity outlet provided in the dam and controlled by
gates as shown in Fig. 7.

7 MODEL STUDIES
The guidelines given above would be useful in
preparing a preliminary design of high ogee overflow
and orifice spillway. The final design should be evolved
on the basis of studies on a hydraulic model for
discharging capacity, pressures on spillway surface and
breast wall etc.
