Abstract/Additional Information

This course will provide an overview of commonly observed issues associated with the most common type of spillway for relatively small dams (riser and low-level conduit). Importantly, the presentation will summarize methods to evaluate the condition of existing conduits and present common methods to repair and/or replace conduits. At the completion of the course, the participants should be able to identify common issues with low-level conduits, to include inlets and outlets, and have probable courses of action to address the identified issues.

Five Learning Objectives of This Course:
• General dam terminology.
• Risks associated with low-level conduits.
• Common issues with low-level conduit spillways.
• Methods to identify/inspect issues with low-level conduits.
• Methods to repair common issues with low-level conduits.
