Dam Construction Alternatives Site Specific Matrix Jason Butler 3/4/2011

Worcester Polytechnic Institute Civil & Environmental Engineering Major Qualifying Project (MQP) Stantec Project Center Project Advisors: Professor Frederick Hart Professor Suzanne Lepage Stantec Consulting Service Inc. mentors Daniel Gilbert Greg Yankey Brad Smiley

Project Scope Develop an understanding of dam construction alternatives: Concrete-Filled Cellular Sheet Pile Cells Float-In Roller Compacted Concrete Develop a user friendly site specific matrix for selection of appropriate dam construction alternative

Project Deliverables Overview of three dam construction alternatives Capstone Design Project Design a site specific dam construction matrix Calibrate matrix at previous dams built Apply matrix to future dam projects

Concrete-Filled Cellular Sheet Pile Cell Construction In-the-wet construction Permanent cofferdam structure Tremie concrete pour Cost and schedule saver Accommodates to irregular rocklines Suitable for volatile rivers

Float-In Construction In-the-wet construction Prefabrication of dam segments created at offsite location Casting basin or launch facility Large construction equipment Extensive underwater diver work

Roller Compacted Concrete Construction In-the-dry construction Temporary cofferdams Dewatering required Rapid placed concrete Construction completed in stages Optimize dams geometry

Matrix

Calibration of Matrix Kentucky River Lock and Dam No. 9 (Cell) Braddock Dam (Float-In) McAlpine Dam (RCC)

Application to Future Projects Kentucky River Lock and Dam No. 8 Currently under design process approval Matrix Results: Concrete-Filled Cellular Sheet Pile Cells

Application of Matrix Gain basic knowledge about dam construction Useful for clients to choose appropriate dam construction technique to use at specific location Entry-level engineers can use as a reference to get on board with the project quicker Serves as useful information on dam construction topics to allow clients and engineers to be on the same page
