Hydraulic Model Studies of Falcon Dam
Sign in to track this film in your collection or want list.
Before the construction of the Falcon Dam, models were built to test the performance of the final design under varying conditions. This film provides a detailed demonstration of the tests done to study the effects of standing waves on the performance of the stilling basin and to track erosion patterns in different flow conditions. Note: The film label dates this as 1961, but the original tests were performed in 1949.
