• Company built through organic growth and acquisition
• Just over 40 part time and full time staff
• 3 Regional offices in the UK
• Significant UK-based workload
• Major ongoing overseas contracts
• Current annual turnover of £3m

We have worked or are working in the following Countries:
Project Brief
• Flood defence project in South Korea• Navigable channel joining Yeongsan and Yeongam rivers• Design and construct a pair of Floating Sector Gates
• KGAL retained by Korean consultant BSR Engineering • Outline design previously prepared by Arcadis• KGAL to prepare the detailed engineering design
Gate Dimensions
To enable articulation of across the river each leaf is buoyant enabling it to float into position and then be scuttled.
Each gate revolves around a spherical bearing to take up the varying river levels and buoyancy conditions that it will be exposed to.
At the time of design there was only one other similar structure built in the world, the Maeslant Barrier in Rotterdam.
• Clear navigable span is 60m
• The radius of each gate is 34m
• They stand just over 8m tall
• Each gate leaf weighs 286 tonnes
Gate Loads
In order to determine the adequacy of the existing outline design a full definition of the primary and secondary loads which may be applied to the gate was prepared.
The key primary loads identified were:
• Hydrostatic water pressure• Self weight• Wave loading• Water ballast• Various seismic elements
Using these primary loads, it was then possible to define all of the various load combinations that the structure would be required to withstand.
Gate Loads
LOAD TYPE YEONGSANSIDE
YEONGAMSIDE
Hydrostatic head +0.96mAD(N) - 1.45mAD(N)
Self weight of Gate 2786 kN -
Wave load (above +0.96mAD level)
0.7 m -
Load Combination Case A
Gate closed with maximum on-seating hydrostatic load
(sector gate arms in compression) with ballast tanks full and
tidal tanks open including Waves
Load Case A is the most onerous on the gate structure, the
hinge bearing and the hinge support structure.
Load Case A will therefore be used as the Design load Case for
the ‘normal’ on-seating condition.
Gate Loads
LOAD TYPE YEONGSANSIDE
YEONGAMSIDE
Hydrostatic head -1.35mAD(N) +0.82mAD(N)
Self weight of Gate 2786 kN -
Wave load (above +0.82mAD level)
- +0.65m
Load Combination Case C
Gate closed with maximum off-seating hydrostatic load
(sector gate arms in tension) with ballast tanks full and
tidal tanks open including Waves
Load Case C is the most onerous on the gate structure,
the hinge bearing and the hinge support structure.
Load Case C will therefore be used as the Design load
Case for the ‘normal’ off-seating condition.

Load Case P will therefore be used as the Design load

Load Case Summary
In all a total of 16 Combination Load Cases were defined.
By inspection and assessment, it was determined that Load Cases A, C, N & P being the most onerous would be used in the analysis.
The loads on the gate structure, the hinge bearing loads and the resultant loads imposed onto the civil structure were analysed using ANSYS Workbench Linear Static Analysis.
Other Load Cases were considered when analysing the strength of individual elements of the gate structure such as the skinplate and skinplate stiffeners.
Magnitude of unfactored forces:
• Yeongsan river side 6842kN per gate• Yeongam river side 4450kN per gate
Symmetrical Half Model
Having produced a sensible and coherent 3D model of the
current design in Solidworks this was imported into ANSYS in
.sat format.
Due to the size and complexity of the model a symmetrical half
model was used to reduce the solving time.
Half Model Mesh
.
ANSYS was used to create an automatic solid element mesh.
Artificial constraints were applied to the model to represent real
life contacts and loads were applied to represent real life loading
conditions
Meshing on Arm Members
.
The mesh density was manually set in several areas to enable the stress
distribution within the structure to be accurately assessed.
The mesh itself consists of 3,146,151 nodes and 1,288,975 elements.

FEA results showed that the outline design had high stress concentrations on the inside of the gate arm tubes at the joint by the hinge bearing.
KGAL have added internal stiffening tubes at each joint to reduce stress level.
