    Sluice Gate Design Mathcad

    The document discusses the design of a sluice gate and its fixing arrangements. It considers four cases where the sluice gate is fully closed, partially closed (h2=h1/4), half closed (h2=h1/2), and partially closed (h2=h1x3/4). It calculates the total reaction force on the sluice gate for each case. The maximum force occurs when the gate is fully closed. It then checks that the embedded depth and strength of the anchor bolts and rebar are sufficient to support the maximum factored load on the sluice gate.

    Introduction

    A sluice gate controls flow in open channel. The flow of water is from aeration
    tank to Mixer tank / Spliter box. Here two sections considered for the flow of
    water ie; section 1 is for inflow to sluice gate and section 2 is for out flow from
    sluice gate, Assume the flow is uniform and the pressure is hydrostatic.
    Neglecting bottom friction and atmospheric pressure.

    Two cases are considered for design of fixing arrangements ie; case1 Sluice gate
    is fully closed and case 2 Sluice gate is partially closed

    Assume steady state incompressible flow and no variation across width `b'. The inlet
    and outlet mass flows balance: V2/V1 = h1/h2, Where V1 is the velocity of water
    before reaching sluice gate and V1 is the velocity of flow through sluice gate.

    Check for attached bolt strength:
    Reaction forces are transfered to the concrete through anchor bolt. Total Water pressure tranfered
    throgh tension and Vertical load of sluice gate transfered through shear. Four number of 1/2 inch
    dia bolts are attached at each sides of sluice gate. Assuming entire triangular pressure is carried
    out by one-Anchor bolt at both sides. Since forces on anchor bolts are less embeded depth will be
    critical and hence anchor bolt is checked for embeded depth.

    Check for embeded anchor rebar :

    Entire force for sluice gate is transfered finally through embeded chemical anchor. Water pressure
    is perpendicular embeded anchor. Total force is checked for 4 number of bolt embeded anchor.
    Embeded chemical anchor is designed using Hilti profis software.
