Timah Tasoh Dam Is Located Across Sungai Korok At 2 3km Downstream Of Confluence Of Sungai Timah And Sungai Tasoh The S 1 (42.14 KiB) Viewed 29 times
Timah Tasoh Dam is located across Sungai Korok at 2.3km downstream of confluence of Sungai Timah and Sungai Tasoh. The site is adjacent to Kangar-Padang Besar road, approximately 17km north of the city of Kangar in State of Perlis. The purpose of this dam are as follows: 1. As a storage reservoir is for regulating the flows of Sungai Korok to meet the domestic and industrial demand. 2. Irrigate 2500 ha of land and supply a total of 8mgd water for drinking and industrial uses. 3. Help mitigate flooding in downstream. Prepare a summary of technical report based on the information provided in this project and present it as POSTER PRESENTATION (in pptx file). The report must include several items as follows: Background studies Proposed design and analysis of concrete dam. Redesign the existing dam to concrete gravity type. Check the stability of the dam per unit length (1 m) against overturning, sliding, and stresses. Also, determine the corresponding vertical normal stresses acting at the heel and toe of the dam. Assume a safety factor, f of 0.8.
Your analysis should focus on forces contributed by the weight, hydrostatic and hydrostatic uplift only. Provide a critical discussion about the best selection of the dam.
