FORE WORD

This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the drafi finalizedby the Hydraulic Gates and Valves Sectional Committee had been approved by the Water Resources DivisionCouncil.

Slide gate, as the name implies, is that gate in which the operating member (gate leaf) slides on the seatingsurfaces provided on the frame consisting of bodies with or without bonnets. These gates are generally installed inthe closed conduit and have sealing all around. Jet flow gate also falls in this category.

Use of slide gates as the control and guard or emergency gates in conduits and sluices for water head up to 100 mis gaining popularity because of comparative simple construction and better hydraulic performance resultingfrom narrow groove width. Jet flow gates are being used for heads up to 200 m. However, slide gates normally donot close under their own weight, under condition of unbalanced head, that is, water flowing through conduit orsluice, and have to be pushed down for closing. This factor dictates the location of hoist directly above the gateand Iimits the use of slide gates.

It is advisable, specially for high head gates, to get model of the gate tested in the hydraulic laboratory to determinethe following for various operating requirements:

a) Down pull and uplift force,b) Air demand and its location,c) Gate slot geometry,d) Gate geometry Special bottom shape,

. ,.

e) Vibration, andf) Negative pressure and cavitation effects.

This standard was published in 1979. The first revision was taken up in 1986 in view of the experience gainedduring the course of these years in use of this standard. Two more conditions were added in Annex C, that is, threeedges fixed and one (longer) edge tiee, and three edges fixed and one (shorter) edge free to cover the mostcommonly occurring field conditions.

This standard is being brought out to incorporate changes and additional clauses in the light of experience gainedand the latest trends in design the worldover specially with reference to coacting width in case of panel construction,jet flow gates, requirement of aeration, figures showing rubber seal arrangement, etc.There is no ISO standard on the subject. Assistance has been drawn from ASTM D2 137 Standard test methodsfor rubber property Brittleness point of flexible polymers and coated fabrics for the method of test for lowtemperature brittleness.

The composition of the Committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given in Annex J.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance withIS 2:1960 Rules for rounding ofinumerical values (revise~. The number of significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

be supported directly over the bonnet cover or over aseparate set of girders at higher level.

5.2 Gate Leaf

5.2.1 The gate leaf is a rigid frame structure consistingof a skin plate supported on stiffener and/or girderwhich transmits the water load tlom the skin plate tothe vertical end girder. The skin plate may be upstreamand/or downstream, according to design requirements.The gate leaf may be of cast steel or of structural steelin welded construction. Provision shall be made forconnecting the gate position indicator and connectionsfor the hoist to the gate leaf. Connections for the hoistshall be determined so that the gate shall remain trulyvertical in suspended condition.

5.2.2 The seals which are screwed on the downstreamface of the gate leaf transmit the water load on thegate leaf to the concrete through seal seats andembedded downstream body. Sutlicient number ofscrews should be provided to resist the frictionalforces during raising or lowering of gate undermaximum head of water. In addition shear plug toresist about 10 percent of shear force should beprovided. Alternatively rubber seals of suitable sizemay be fixed on sides and top with the help of sealclamps and G.I. or stainless steel bolts}stainless steelscrew so as to ensure a positive water pressurebetween the seal and the gate, and to bear tightly onthe seal seat to prevent leakage. For reducing the sealfriction fluorocarbon clad seal may be used. Edges ofseal clamp adjacent to seal bulb shall be rounded.Rubber seal shall be provided at the bottom of thegate leaf. Its projection shall be uniform and shouldnot be normally more than 3 mm. In the case of high

IS 9349:2006

head gates, the projection should be limited to 1.5 mm.Sealing arrangement showing rubber seals is shownin Fig. 2.

5.2.3 The gate shall have a narrow sill surface at thebottom with its upstream ordownstream face slopingupwards at an approximate angle of 45 with thehorizontal to reduce down pull or uplift respectively,especially when the gate is used for regulation.

5.2.4 For high head gates bottom sealing and slopingsurfaces of the gate should preferably be of stainlesssteel for better resistance to cavitation damage. Toreinforce it against cavitational pitting that may occur,the upstream edge of the gate leaf may be slightlyprojected and rounded off suitably for bettertiydraulicperformance. An overlay of corrosion resistant steelof thickness af not less than 3 mm on slopingplate or complete corrosion resistant bottom plateis recommended on the sloping plate as shown inFig. 1.

5.3 Frame

The frame consists of the following components:

a) Sill girder with bottom seal seat,b) Body,c) Bonnet, andd) Bonnet cover.

... ,

5.3.1 Sill Girder with Bottom Seal Seat

Bottom seal seat should be flush with the bottom of theopening and should be fixed on to the sill girder eitherwith screwing or by welding to provide bottom sealingsurface for the gate. All flanged joints should beprovided with O-ringgasket.

5.3.2 Body

The body which houses the gate leaf in closed positionmay be in sub-assemblies with joints. The body maybeof cast steel or structural steel in welded construction.In the latter case, proper care shall be taken to preventwarping during welding so that the tolerance of gapsaround the gate is strictly adhered to. These should beadequately ribbed to provide proper anchorage withthe surrounding concrete. The ribs so provided shouldhave enough openings for allowing good concretingbehind the groove bodies. The downstream portion ofthe body carries the bearing-cum-sealing plate in caseof metallic seals, which may be fixed-by welding orscrewing. It should be so designed that the maximumbearing pressure to which the concrete is subjectedshould not exceed the permissible stress specified inIS 456. The adequacy of embedded bearing plateshraclcsections shall be checked in bending and shear alsobased.on theory of bending of infinite berun on elasticfoundation. Guides are also fixed to the body forguiding the gate. Separate seal seats should be providedfor rubber seals on u/s or d/s depending upon locationof seals.

5.3.3 Bonnet

The bonnet houses the gate leaf in open position. It hasflanges on the bottom for being bolted to the body andon the top for the bonnet cover. The bonnet may eitherbe of cast steel or structural steel in weldedconstruction. It should be adequately ribbed to provideproper anchorage with surrounding concrete. The ribsso provided should have enough openings for allowinggood concreting behind the groove bodies. Guides arefixed to the bonnet in continuity of the guides fixed onthe body for guiding the gates.

5.3.4 Bonnet Cover

Bonnet cover is provided to seal the gate slot andprovide a support for the hoist, in case the hoist ismounted directly over the bomet. It should be designedfor full hydrostatic pressure and also for the hoistcapacity if the hoist is directly mounted over it. It shouldbe in either one piece or more pieces according to therequirement. Provision for venting of air should bemade in the bonnet cover.

5.4 Jet Flow Gate

Jet flow gates are used as regulating gates either atdischarge end or at.any intermediate point in a conduit.They consist of a flat-bottomed leaf, a body and bonnetand a bonnet cover on which the operating hoist ismounted. The fluid way upstream of gate forms a nozzlein the shape of the frustum of a 45 cone with upstreamdiameter at least twenty percent greater thandownstream diameter or orifice diameter, causing, the

discharging jet to contract and spring free of the slot inthe gate body. The advantage in jet flow gates is thatthere is little or no pressure on the bonnet of gate. Thesecan be useful for small size outlets under high heads(150-200 m) installation. The arrangement is shown inFig. 3.

-6-MATERIALS

The material used for different components should beas specified in Annex B.

7 UNIT STRESS

7.1 The permissible value of stresses in the structuralparts should be as specified in ArmexC.

7.2 The permissible -value of stresses in weldedconnections should be the same as permitted for theparent material.

8 LOADING

with the procedure given in 9.1.2(b), thestresses as given in Annex D should beused.

9.1.4 In either of the cases specified in 9.1.2 whiledesigning the stiffener and girders the skin plate canbe considered to be coacting with them.

a) The coacting width of the skin plate in nonpanel fabrication as per 9.1.2(a) shall be takenby restricting to the least of the fo[lowingvalues:

1) 4ot+B,where

t = thickness of skin plate, andB = width of stiffener flange in

contact with the skin plate;2) 0.11 span; and3) Centre-to-centre of stiffeners or girders.

b) When skin plate coacts with girder as well asstiffener to form a panel construction, widthof skin plate coacting w-ithhorizontal girderor stiffener should be worked out as illustratedin Annex E.

9.1.5 The stresses so computed shall be combined inaccordance with formula:

where0 =Crx=cry =Tv =

d0, = 0: +0; oxcry+3 Zxy=

comb-ined stress,sum of stresses along x axis,sum of stresses along y axis, andsum of shear stresses along x y plane.

NOTE The appropriate signs should be taken for rJxandCJyin the above formula.

9.1.6 The permissible value of mono-axial as weIl ascombined stresses should not be greater than thosespecified in Annex C.

9.1.7 Permissible value of stresses in the welds shouldbe the same as permitted for the parent material. Forsite weld, efficiency should be considered 80 percentof shop weld.

9.1.8 To take care of corrosion, the actual thicknessof skin plate to be provided should be at least 1.5 mmmore than the theoretical thickness computed, basedon the stresses given in Annex C. The thickness of theskin plate should be not less than 8 mm, exclusive ofcorrosion allowance when considered.

9.1.9 The stiffeners may, if necessary, be of a built upsection or of standard rolled section, that is, tees, angles,channels, etc.

6

9.1.10 Horizontal and vertical stiffeners should bedesigned as simply supported or continuous -beams,depending upon the framing adopted for the gate. Thespacing between horizontal girders should preferablybe such that all the.girders carry ahnost equal loads.

9.1.11 The end vertical girders should be designed ascontinuous beams with concentrated loads, comingfrom horizontal girders, at points where they meet theend vertical girders.

9.1.12 Deflection of Gatea) Maximum deflection of the gate under normal

conditions of loading should be limited to1/2 000 of the span.

b) In case of bulkhead gates the maximumdeflection should be limited to 1/1 200 of thespan.

9.1.13 Whenever the gate is connected to the hoistingmechanism, at points other thanthe end vertical girders,care shall be taken to avoid stress concentrationparticularly on the web of-top horizontal girder. Thehoisting force should preferably be dispersed throughsuitable stiffeners to one or more horizontal girdersbelow the top one. The extra stresses arising due tothis arrangement may be combined with the otherstresses to ensure that permissible limits are notexceeded. .,, ,

9.1.14 Gate Slot Geometry

Width of slot should be kept as small as practicable. ,The downstream edge of the gate slot should be offsetto reduce the cavitation hazard. In the absence of modelstudies a downstream offset of about 0.075 to 0.10 ofthe slot width with l/12 to 1/24 gradient downstreamof the gate slot and a rounded point of intersection isrecommended.

9.1.15 Aeration Requirement

The location and sizing of air vent is critical forminimizing cavitation and vibration problemsassociated with regulating services of gated outlets.Such installation, should be provided with adequateair supply downstream of the gate. For determinationof air requirements and size of air vent IS 12804 maybe referred to.

9.2 Seals

9.2.1 The seal should be fixed to the gate leaf bymeans of countersunk screws made of corrosionresisting steel.

Thescrews used for fixing of seals to the gate leaf, should

IS 9349:2006

be designed to take up full shear likely to developbetween the seal and the gate leaf due to friction forceencountered between the seal and seal seat duringraising or lowering of gates under maximum head ofwater. The screws should be adequately tightened toa constant torque and locked by punch marks. Acompressed asbestos/rubber gasket should b.eprovided between the seal and the Ieafiody to preventleakage. Shear plugs may be provided in addition, atthe discretion of the designer. The bottom seal shouldbe of wedge type and manufactured from rubber. Forreducing the friction fluorocarbon cladded seals maybe used. Suitable groove for grease should be providedon the top and side seals as shown in Fig. 1 for metallicsealing.

9.2.2 The surface of the gate leaf over which seals arefixed, should be machined to a finish of 12.5 to 25 ~m(see IS 3073).9.2.3 The surface finish of the sliding surface of metalseals should be within the range of 1.6 to 6.3 pm (seeIs 3073).9.2.4 Minimum threaded length equivalent to one anda half times the diameter of the screws should bescrewed with the gate leaf to ensure against theirIooseningunder vibrations during operations.

9.2.5 Suitable chamfer should be provided at thebottom of the gate leaflclamp plate to accommodatethe bottom wedge seal in compressed position.

9.2.6 For regulating gates, the designer at hisdiscretion, may make the.seals effective throughout therange of travel of gates either by fixing the seals to theembedded parts or by providing a liner plate above, incontinuation of the top seal seats for the entire width ofthe gate and range of regulation.

The ribs should be provided with enoughopening for good concreting. The body shall bechecked to withstand full external pressure with apermissible stress of 80 percent of yield point stressof the material and should have sutllcient anchoragewith the concrete to withstand the external pressure.In case sufficient anchorage length in concrete is notavailable, the body should be designed to withstandfidl external pressure on its own.

9.3.2 The downstream portion of the body carries thebearing plate and should be so designed that maximum

bearing pressure to which the concrete is subjected, shallnot exceed the permissible stress specified in IS 456.

9.3.3 The following minimum plate thickness arerecommended for the main plates of the body:

sl Head Cast Steel Mild SteelNo. mm

(1) (2) (3) 747i) Medium head (exceeding 20 16

12.1 For very wide and big reservoirs, the effect ofwave height due to storms, etc, in causing increasedloading on the gate, should also be considered.

12.2 Increased stresses in various parts of the gate, asdescribed in 11.2 for earthquake forces, should beallowed for the wave effect.

12.3 The earthquake forces and the wave effect shouldnot be considered to act together while computing theincreased stresses in the gate.

13 ICE LOADS

13.1 Ice-Impact and Ice-Pressure

Provided local conditions do not impose other values,ice-impact and ice-pressure should be taken intoaccount in such a way that the water pressure triangleshall be replaced as given below:

.a) In waters with ice thickness greater than300 mm, by an even surface pressure of30000 N/mz up to 3 m depth; and

b) In waters with ice thickness upto 300 mm, byan even surface of 20000 N/mzup to 2 m depth.

14 MWL CONDITION

In case the gate is to be checked for MWL condition,the allowable stress shall be increased by 33.333percent of the values specified in Annex C subject to80 percent of upper limit of yield point. However, ifthe gates are required to be designed for MWLcondition, normal stresses should be taken inaccordance with Annex C.

15 STRESS RELIEVING

Stress relieving is required depending on the thicknessof the plate or size of weld. For plates with thicknessmore than 28 mm stress relieving should be done. Thestress relieving may be done according to the procedurementioned in IS 2825.

16 GROUTING

Provision for contact grouting, that is, groutingbetween gate body and bonnet and surroundingconcrete should be made to ensure a perfect -bondbetween them. Provision for suitably designed grouthole arrangement should be made in the liner andbonnet to avoid voids between various stages ofconcreting and between gate bodylbonnet andconcrete. Provision should also be made for escapeof air during grouting. Such grout holes should beplugged subsequently and ground flushed. ,,,,

NOTES

1 YP stands for minimum guaranteed yield point stress. UTS stands for ultimate tensile strength. For materials which have no definiteyield point. The yield point may be taken at 0.2 percent proof stress.2 When the members are subjected to direct compression/compression in bending, the //r ratio of members is to be considered and thestresses correspondingly reduced in proportion given in Annex C and shall be in accordance with IS 800.3 The term wet condition applies to skin plates and those components of gate which may have a sustained contact with water, forexample, horizontal girder and other components located on upstream side of the skhr plate. The term dry condition applies to allcomponents which generally do not have a sustained contact with water, for example, girders, stiffeners, etc., on downstream side ofskin plate, even though there may be likelihood of their wetting due to occasional spray of water. Stoplogs are stored above water leVeland are only occasionally used. Hence, stresses given under dry and accessible conditions should be applied to them in accordancewith 9.1.8,4 The term accessible applies to gates which are kept in easily accessible locations and can, therefore, be frequently inspected andmaintained, for example, gates and stoplogs which are stored above water level and are lowered only during operations. The terminaccessible applies to gates which are kept below water level.and/or are not easily available for frequent inspection and maintenance.For example, gates kept below water level or in the bonnet space even while in the raised position or gates which on account of theirfrequent use are generally in water.
