Trajectory Bucket - Lower Spillway

This document provides design details for the trajectory bucket of a lower spillway, including: 1) Dimensions of the single bay, width of 8.2m, and lip angle of 30 degrees at an elevation of 2034.68 masl. 2) Design discharge of 492 cubic meters per second with the reservoir at an elevation of 2114 masl. 3) Calculations show the bucket radius of 20m meets requirements and will not cause roller action. 4) Expected minimum, probable, and ultimate scour depths ranging from 24.84m to 44.84m are provided.
