Abstract
Formulas and stress values for the design of pipe supports on the automatic flash-board gates of dam spillways are developed and discussed in this paper. As a result of hydraulic laboratory tests of full-size flash-boards, supplemented by mechanical tests of the pipe supports and check tests of actual field installations outlined herein, data have been obtained which permit accurate predetermination of the lake level at which gates of this type will automatically fall and by-pass flood water.
