5.2.5 Description of Components and Design Criteria
5.2.5.1 General
The radial gate consists of curved skin plates, supported on vertical stiffeners, which in
turn rest on horizontal girders. The horizontal girders are mounted on end arms, which
transmit the hydrostatic pressure to trunnion bracket supporting beam through the trunnion
bracket. The trunnion bracket supporting beam transfers the load to the piers.
A. The gates shall be designed in accordance with IS 4623 (latest revision) for the following
loads. The maximum permissible value of stresses shall not be greater than those specified
for normal working conditions in Annex B of IS: 4623 shall be considered.

1499.00 m and gate closed.
b) One gate fully opened and adjoining gate closed.
c) Total hydrostatic, hydro-dynamic and frictional forces occurring, when the gates are
raised, lowered or maintained partially open with the upstream water level at any
elevation between EL 1500.08 m and 1475.85 m and wind load on gate with raised
position.
d) Dead weight of gate.
e) Effect of pull due to hydraulic hoist
B The gates shall also be designed for following occasional forces. In these cases, the
allowable stresses specified in Annex B of IS 4623 (latest edition) shall be increased by
33-1/3 % subject to maximum of 85% of yield point stress of the material used. The

ii) Drawing should clearly indicate the joint position, shop or field welding, kind of welding,
method of welding, welding sizes, and other required points. Symbols to be shown on the
drawing should conform to relevant Indian Standards.
iv) All welding shall be done by the electric arc method or by a process which will exclude
the atmosphere from the molten metal, except where otherwise specifically permitted. All
welding electrodes required shall be furnished by the contractor. Correct selection of
108
electrodes shall be done taking due care of welding method and base metals of
components. The welding electrodes shall be of the heavily coated type designed for all

The field circumferential joints shall be welded manually by covered electrodes. The
conditions of maintenance of electrode and the procedure of welding shall be similar to
the manual welding performed at the shop.
In the present case of embedded type steel liner, where the welding work is liable to be
carried out in highly humid tunnels. The chance of delayed cracking of weld is apt to be
more easily induced by hydrogen. To prevent weld cracks, stringent control of
preheating temperature, heat input and electrode shall be practiced.
Multipass welded joints of these types have a high possibility of cracks occurring in the
root pass. Cracks of this type can be removed by the application of continuous welding.
This kind of crack is likely to occur when temperature is less than 150 degree C and
when hydrogen contained in heat affected zone is high. In the case of continuous
welding, however, it shall take some, what longer time before the temperature is lowered
to 150 degree C or under. During this period, hydrogen contained is removed and the
possibility of crack occurrence shall be thereby eliminated. Welding shall be applied
continuously as far as practicable. The heat input and interpass temperature shall be
followed strictly and no deviation shall be permitted.
iii) Qualification of Welders:
All welders assigned to manual welding shall have successfully passed the test conducted
by the Contractor as prescribed for welder qualification in IS:2825 or section IX of
ASME Boiler and pressure Vessel Code. If in the opinion of the Engineer, the work of
any welder becomes at any time or appears questionable such welder shall be required to
pass another qualification test.
iv) Welding Procedure Qualification:
When considered necessary by the Engineer, the welding procedure qualification test
shall be undertaken. The aim of this qualification is to confirm the choice of the filler
metal and of the welding process for a well defined base material (steel plate) and to

welded edge to edge in the longitudinal direction. Its thickness shall be approximately
equal to the greatest typical wall thickness for the steel or the welding process provided
for. This test plate shall be treated in the same manner as the shop or erection welds.
Inspection shall be carried out for the following or as directed by the Engineer.

2.15.9 Summary:-
Technical Specification for Penstock:-
A. Material Properties
01. Steel to be used for the fabrication of penstocks of grade ASTM: 285; Grade-C. / IS: 2002
Grade 2A.
02. Thickness of Liner is to be used is 22mm/16mm/12mm.
03. Steel to be used for the fabrication of penstocks of a hydro-electric project should meet the
following requirements:
a) It should stand against maximum internal pressure including dynamic pressure,
b) It should stand against frequent dynamic changes,
c) It should have required impact strength to be able to deform plastically in the presence
of stress concentrations at notches and bends,
d) It should have good weld-ability without preheating.
e) It should not require any stress relieving after welding.
The requirements (a) to (c) are essential while requirements (d) and (e) are preferable.
04. The steel plates to be used for fabrication of penstock liners should be of fire box quality
conforming to IS 2002: 1992, IS 2041: 1982.
B. Allowable Stresses for Steel liner
The allowable stresses and the factor of safety to be adopted depend upon the yield
point stress and ultimate tensile strength of the steel, loading condition and the location where
steel lining is provided.
Following allowable stresses should be adopted in design of steel penstocks, Since these
guidelines are for design of penstock, these requirement are to be meet out during fabrication and
installation phase of penstock.
1) In normal operating condition, the design stresses should not exceed one-third of the
minimum ultimate tensile strength or 60 percent of minimum yield point stress of steel,
whichever is less.
2) In intermittent condition, the design stresses should not exceed 40 percent of
