Introduction

The aim of Adıyaman-Gömükan Dam Project, in the scope of GAP, is to store the flows of

Çat and Han streams in Adıyaman-Gömükan Dam which is located in the western side of

Adıyaman province and to provide irrigation for a net area of 6535 ha and a gross area of

7261 ha in total. Adıyaman-Gömükan Dam Project is within the borders of Adıyaman

province and the dam was planned to be erected on Han river. The catchment area of project

zone is 17 km northern west of Adıyaman and goes through the Çamyurdu village. The

distance from city center to the location of dam is 25 km. Final project report encompasses the

parts some of which can be named as the description of project, engineering geology report,

calculations, fixture project reports, site evaluation reports, bill of quantities, technical

specifications and so forth. Apart from the afore-mentioned statements, Adıyaman has a slope

of less than %10 but the slope of some places are %10-25 and may even go up to more than

%25. Areas that have slope values exceeding %25 carry the risk of falling rocks and

landslides at a notable level. When the Turkey’s seismic map is taken into account, that zone

falls into 1st critical seismic zone and the most destructive earthquake was recorded as 7, in

Richter’s scale, among all times. Adıyaman has a terrestrial climate which means summers

are hot and arid whereas winters are cold and rainy. The city’s rainfall regime occurs heavily

between autumn and spring and annual average rainfall amount is 52.6 kg/m2. The work of

Adıyaman-Gömükan Dam Project started on 24 September 2012 based on the given

authorization by signing an agreement between Eser Project and Engineering Co. Inc. and The

General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works on 17 September 2012. Some features of the

project are as follows; main purpose of the project is irrigation and the drainage area is 46 km2

together with a 803.90 m of minimum elevation and normal water level as 848.34 m. Lake

volumes are 6.00 hm3 at the minimum level, 55.05 hm3 at normal water level and finally,

49.05 hm3 corresponds to active lake volume. Further, dam body is made up of sand gravel

fill as its front face covered with concrete. The quantity of non porous fill is 38.170 m3

whereas semi porous fill is stated as 3.763.833 m3. Beside those, rock fill quantity is 57.569

m3 all of which makes a total of 3.859.572 m3. Additionally, the spillway described in the

project is an uncontrolled one on right coast. Qinput is 153.60 m3/s and Qoutput is 57.46 m3/s

possessing a stilling basin of USBR type 3. When it comes to the sediment situation of dam,

in the words of project report, no stations with the ability of sediment measurement exists. In

the planning report prepared by The General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works 20. Zone

Management, total dead volume is accepted as 6 hm3 which may come in 50 years from dam

location. In terms of geotechnical qualities, first point that needs to be pointed out is that on

the dam axis, on both coasts old ofiyolit sediments exist. Those units are weathered and their

strength is medium to poor and can be easily crumbled. The scope of geotechnical report

covers some quality measurements and the following statements are dedicated to those

information. On the route of derivation tunnel, RMR, Q and Terzaghi rock mass

classifications were done, pile and support systems were pointed out. RMR classification

resulted as RMR = 30 and respectively, the rock stratum were labeled as weak rock. On the

other hand, Q classification resulted as Q = 0.03 and respectively, the rock stratum were

regarded as extremely weak rock. Lastly, according to Terzaghi classification system, the rock

mass are on the fifth group and in this group, rock’s physical property defined as cracked.

Week 1

Throughout the history of mankind, the need for clean water has forced people to store

water and with the aim of this, they built small structures to meet their daily water intake

which is particularly valid for the ones living in areas where water resources are limited. It is

known that dams were built and were in service in Egypt, Iran, India, Far East and Anatolia

5000 years ago which means dams are closely related with the ups and downs that ancient

civilizations came across with.

Dams are engineering structures that store water and are higher than 15 m built on

valley faces and generally increases the number of benefits of water intake beside some

special purposes. Pioneering dams were built for retrieving tap water mostly. The construction

of dams takes a long time (3-10 years) and if destroyed, severe amount of financial and health

losses occur. If the structure’s height is smaller or equal to 15 m and the structure is a basic

water storage compared to a dam, that is called a pond. Any kind of engineering structure

except for a dam does not experience such static and dynamic forces as high as a dam does.

Another significant feature of dam engineering is it chiefly relies upon experience and a fair

amount of detail need to be grasped to be fully prepared. I collected some information about

the benefits of dams from the engineers and draftsmen working in our company and what I

learned is that numerous benefits can be enumerated however, there are some factors all of

Page 7: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

which need attention when design stage is reached. Dams provide irrigation for agricultural

fields, produce hydroelectrical power, supply the necessary water for drinking and industry

constantly, protect the existing fields against floods, provide water transportation, fishery,

location for water sports and a number of other positive contributions. Design considerations

include protection of natural balance, historical artifacts and prevention of landslides, increase

in the groundwater level and so forth. Plants that constitute a dam can be sorted as body and

its plants, spillways, derivation plants, sluiceways and energy transmission plants in energy

producing dams.

It makes sense to put forward some remarks about physical factors that affect the selection

of the type of dam. Before deciding a final type that is most suitable and economical as a

solution, a couple of alternatives need to be inspected and pre-project studies should be done.

Topographic information and analyses are the ones taken into account at the beginning. To

give an example, on a valley where solid and high rocks dominate, the best option to take is a

concrete dam however, if there are enough and satisfying materials available, a rock fill dam

could be on the cards. Further, geology is another factor and has the potential to make an

impact on other interrelated phenomena. To put it another way, rock foundations, gravel

foundations, silty or clayey ones, non uniform foundations and a few others all alter the

material selection and other critical decisions. Another factor that deserves attention is the

height of dam. While selecting the type of any dam, those that are not too high provide less

limiting criteria and that is why homogenous dams are preferable due to their ease of erection.

Moreover, the amount and quality of the materials planned to be used play a major role

especially in terms of economic considerations. For instance, for places where soil products

are abundant but porous materials are not as much as that, homogenous dams should be

selected. Spillways are also a key aspect during the process of selecting which dam is more

suitable. When selecting a spillway the magnitude of plausible floods ought to be taken into

account. Thus, the dams that are intended to be built on rivers that have high flood potential

mostly affected by spillway characteristics. Additionally, the cost of a large spillway is a

noteworthy part among the total project cost. Apart from what has been discussed so far, most

of the dams that have been built up to now and planned to be built in the near future in Turkey

are located in active earthquake zones. For this reason, the possible horizontal forces that may

apply to a dam body when an earthquake strikes off can be taken as static equivalent

horizontal forces however, the effect of layers all of which emerge foundation level on

horizontal forces applying to fill must be bore in mind. Last but not least, benefit cost ratio

governs the commencement of the project namely and in other words, it may prevent a project

from being a real physical one. My supervisor thouched on the possible reasons for a dam to

fail. He said that a dam holding a large amount of water poses a threat to its adjacent

territories and even though dam failures do not happen quite often, failures might occur due to

the following reasons;

- Earthquakes

- Landslides that may cause wave movements and allow water to exceed the dam’s

upper body

- Overlooked leaks that emerges on the dam’s body due to the settlements on the soil

where the dam situates

- Water that comes from heavy rainfalls can surpass the crest elevation of a dam

Margin of Safety Calculation

One of the remedies thought for providing the safety of a dam is leaving a margin of safety

between reservoir maximum level and dam crest. Otherwise, the waves emerged on a

reservoir might exceed the crest. Following this, if extreme amount of water exceeds quite

often, the material on the face of crests and downstreams may fade away due to erosion. In

addition to what has been told so far, the waves above a crest pose a massive threat to the

people and vehicles on crest.

Normal Margin of Safety

Explanation

The factors that are taken into account during the design phase is successively as follows:

1) 1000 years repeated wind speed (U)

2) Design Wave Height (Hd)

3) Swaggering of water wave through the base face of reservoir area (Hw)

4) Ascending of wave through upstream slope (Ru)

Normal margin of safety is the addition of water swaggering height and the height of

ascending waves.

Hnormal = Hw + Ru

Page 9: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

Minimum Margin of Safety

It is the vertical distance allocated between the dam and maximum water level which was

calculated as a result of flood routing. It is generally calculated with 10 years repeated wind

speed. To decide the margin of safety:

1) Critical wind speed

2) Wind setup

3) Critical wave height

4) Wave runup is calculated

Total margin of safety is obtained by the addition of flood tide, wave runup and the relatively

small amount decided by engineering judgement.

HP = SK + DT + KM where,

HP = Margin of Safety

SK = Flood Tide

DT = Wave runup

KM = Arbitrary value selected by an engineer

In the project that the company involved in, Adıyaman Gömükan Dam, thalweg elevation is

776.00 m. According to what my supervisor said, wind values and the data of wind exposed

lake lengths are given by meteorological engineers. However, for the sake of discussion, it

shall be useful to shortly define what they are. Wind exposed lake length is basically the water

setup distance as wind does not face with any kind of obstacle and wind values include the

wind speed values as meters per second. During the calculation process of flood tide due to

the wind setup, maximum fetch values are used rather than effective fetch values. Flood tide

values are calculated using the following formula;

S = d

S = Flood tide ( above the static water level)

V = Maximum wind speed through the fetch direction (m/s)

Fd = Direct fetch length (m)

Page 10: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

10

Dd = Average water depth through the fetch direction (m)

Week 2

While calculating the margin of safety, this equation was used. Another hydraulics

part is wave height calculations that are roughly divided into two phenomena: significant

wave height and design wave height. When it comes to significant wave height, first thing to

say is that waves emerge on the water surface with the help of winds. In a certain distance of

fetch and a certain amount of speed for at least an hour long, one third of the average of the

waves created by project wind describe what significant wave height is. Significant wave

height is determined with the aid of charts developed by researchers who previously worked

on that subject depending on whether the condition is shallow or deep water. If the deepness

is larger than 0.4L, it can be called as a deep water nevertheless, if it is smaller than 0.4L,

shallow water case applies where L is the wave length in deep water. Wavelength value is

obtained from wave period as follows L=1.56 T2. Design wave length is calculated utilizing

Hd = 1.25 Hs which corresponds to %5 in Longuet - Higgins wave continuity curve. If the

number of waves that are higher than design waves is lower than 1250 in a 50 years time, the

calculation above is accepted as true. On the other hand, if vice versa is the case, the height

that corresponds to 1250 in wave continuity curve is selected as design wave height. During

the calculation stage of margin of safety, wave runup on the dam’s spring face is used rather

than wave height and this runup depends on the material of spring face, slope, wave length

and incidence angle. The formula used for this purpose is;

= ∗ (2)

where,

Ru = Wave runup (m)

Cu = Runup coefficient

Hd = Design wave height (m)

Adıyaman Gömükan dam body has a slope of 1.6/1 (horizontal/vertical) and works as a

concrete face rock fill dam. Wave runup ratios were found by utilizing the chart’s smooth

slope cluster created by Saville et al.

Figure 2: Wave runup ratios

As a result of all those calculations and methods in the above-mentioned statements, normal

margin of safety and minimum margin of safety are determined as 2.68 m and 1.46 m

respectively.

As well as the afore-mentioned statements, I also learned the geologic formations that the

design engineers should pay consideration when dam bodies are being placed and some of

those are stated below;

- A groundwater way which is difficult to be ruled out should be found through the dam

axis upstream to somewhere related to downstream.

- Formations that are hard to rehabilitate or may lead to high costs should be avoided for

a dam’s foundation

Page 12: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

- Both in the vicinity of fills and the foundations of concrete dams, there should not be

active faults

- The place where the dam is planned to be built on must not encompass landslide prone

areas

Before a project starts, dams possessing different dam body types are considered as

alternatives and their costs, advantages, disadvantages are listed in order to find the most

appropriate dam type for a specific project. Starting with, concrete-face rock-fill dams, its

advantages are;

- The second smallest body volume

- Agricultural fields do not necessarily have to be expropriated

- High strength due to all fill materials being dry

and disadvantages are;

- Spillway excavations on left coast increase the cost

- Since right and left incline slopes are too steep, front faces’ plate widths should be

selected among the narrow ones.

- Water intake cost

Other two types of dams, roller compacted concrete dam and clay core rockfill dam, have

advantages and disadvantages as well and described below;

Clay core rockfill damAdvantages Disadvantages

Wide base area Rocks are far so increased excavation costsClayey material zone is close Expropriation costs are highVery coherent body type

Roller compacted concrete damAdvantages Disadvantages

The smallest body volume Dam body exposed to high tensionsShorter construction period Prone to tension and deflectionsLower excavation and construction costs Need for flying ashLess tunnel opening difficulty

Spillway Calculations

When it comes to typical spillway project phases, primarily spillway width and depth are

determined so as to exceed maximum design discharge and afterwards, if exists, the effects of

approach channel and inlet are taken into account. To prevent the damage of water to

downstream taken from spillway entrance, its energy should be lowered and because of that

chutes and stilling basins are constructed. It was decided that, after all economic, geologic and

topographic evaluations about Adıyaman Gömükan dam project, the spillway should be

placed on the right coast of the territory. Spillway type is an uncontrolled frontal overflow

concrete dam with a rectangular cross section. For the width of the spillway, it was

determined that the starting width is B = 15 m and after a following contraction B = 10 m, it

ends up with B = 10 m as well. At the end of discharge channel, so as to decrease the energy

of flow, a stilling basin having a length of 13.00 m was designed. My supervisor told that the

design stage was carried out based on the specifications published by The General Directorate

of State Hydraulic Works on 27 January 2006. As a result of spillway calculations, Q = 153.6

m3/s which in other words the plausible maximum flood discharge value used by while doing

flood routing and offset output discharge is 57.46 m3/s. The threshold elevation of spillway

structure is 848.34 m and approach elevation was determined as 847.00. After the calculations

that has been done, the maximum water level selected as 849.84 m. Project characteristics are

given below:

Spillway location and type: On the right coast, uncontrolled frontal

Approach channel base elevation: 847.44 m

Spillway crest elevation: 848.34 m

Maximum water level: 849.84 m

Water load: 1.50 m

Discharge channel type: Reinforced concrete with a rectangular cross section

Discharge channel width: B = 15 m ( 0+000 km-0+20.00 km )

Transition ( 0+20.00 -0+80.00 km )

B = 10 m ( 0+80.00 km-0+507.15 km )

Page 14: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

Discharge channel base slope: j:038 ( 0+017.956-0+108.861), j:0.08 ( 0+108.861-0+384.308)

Stilling basin length: 13.00 m

Hydraulics calculation of spillway width

Collection of water in a bowl depends on the difference between input and output flows. This

relationship can be shown as:

= × – × (3)

Δt = time interval

ΔS = Storage during the certain time interval

Qi = Incoming flow during Δt

Qo = Outgoing flow during Δt

The change in incoming flows against time shown with the flood hydrograph, the change in

outgoing flow is reflected on spillway discharge curve and the storage is depicted on reservoir

elevation curve.

Figure 3: Adıyaman Gömükan Dam spillway inflow-outflow hydrographs

Determination of spillway profile

A spillway can be roughly split into four parts; the approach channel, crest profile, discharge

channel and stilling basin

Crest profile: “Normally the crest is shaped to conform to the lower surface of the nappe from

a fully aerated sharp-crested weir as shown in Figure 1. The pressures on the crest will then be

atmospheric. The shape of such a profile depends upon the head, the inclination of the

upstream face of the overflow section, and the height of that section above the floor of the

entrance channel.” ( Khatsuria,2004) I have been informed that the major source used for

spillway design in the office is “Design of Small Dams, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation”. The

equation used for determining the spillway profile is y/H0 = -K (x/H0)n and the K and n values

are constant with solely depending on approach velocity and slope while H0 is the load on

crest. Valveless spillway has the below main characteristics:

Spillway crest elevation: 848.34 m

Approach channel elevation: 847.44 m

Spillway crest length: 15 m

In the progress of flood routing calculations, the 1000 years flood discharge value

corresponding to Q1000 = 153.6 m3/s was used. Design discharge was found to be 57.46 m3/s

at H = 849.84 m water level in reservoir.

Base slope of discharge channel = 0.01

Base angle of discharge channel = 0.5729387◦

The tangents of curves on the points of crest profile and spillway discharge channel must be

the same. In other words, first derivative of the curve and base slope of discharge curve have

to be equivalent.

x is chosen to be 1.600 m

dy/dx = -1.837 * (0.332597622x1.837) = -0.610994995 x1.837

dy/dx = -0.610994995 * 1.6001.837 = 0.90528 = tanβ

β is found to be 42.154◦ from this equation.

a = R*sinβ=6.0*sin42.154 = 4.027 m b = R*cosβ=6.0*cos42.154 = 4.45 m

D’s elevation = 846 + b’=846.00+6=852.00 m

A’s elevation = D’s elevation – b = 852.00 – 4.45 = 847.55 m

B’s elevation = Max. Water level – 2.56*He=849.84-2.56*1.50=846.00 m

Total crest length xc + x + x1 = 0.248 + 1.600 + 3.967 = 5.815 m

With the aim of both creating an economically feasible project and avoiding extra excavation,

contraction was done through the discharge channel.

While calculating margin of safety, km, base elevation, velocity, water depth and cosα values

were taken from related tables.

Margin of safety = 3055.000.2 dV was determined with this formula.

Stilling basin design

The discharge value of 57.46 m3/s was taken while the dimensioning and calculation of the

stilling basin. What calculations yielded is that at the entrance of the stilling basin, the flow

depth is d1 = 0.360 m and the flow velocity is 15.97 m/s.

d1 = 0.360 m V1 = 15.97 m/s

Since Fr1 > 4.5 and V1 = 15.97 m3/s < 18 m3/s, stilling basin type 2 was selected. For Fr1 =

8.50, L = 2.75 and L = 2.75 * 4.150 = 11.41 m, as a result, stilling basin length was decided

to be 13.00 m finally. Lateral wall heights in stilling basins are calculated by adding margin of

safety value to the flow depth after hydraulic jump. On the other hand, margin of safety value

is found with the equation below;

m.o.s = 0.1(V1+d2) V1=15.97 m/s d1 = 0.360 m d2=4.150 m m.o.s = 2.01 m

Top of the wall’s elevation is found by;

Stilling basin base elevation + 1.05*d2 + m.o.s = Top of the wall’s elevation

759.00 + 1.05*4.150 + 2.00 = 765.36 m ∆h wall = 6.50 m

My supervisor informed me about the criteria that they take into account while doing

sluiceway calculations. Some of them are below;

Evacuation conditions should be appropriate for project needs

Economic benefit that obtained with the aid of sluiceway used during project flood

routing

In compliance with discharge criteria

Economic benefit that obtained with the aid of sluiceway for the derivation of stream

flows during the construction stage

First water holding criterion should be completed before the first water holding

process

Week 3

This week I learned how to calculate the hydraulics of diversion tunnels. To begin with, an

optimization study is done for the purpose of determining the diameter of a diversion tunnel.

Afterwards, during the derivation structure pre-report phase, different route alternatives are

inspected. Tunnel entrance elevation, tunnel exit elevation and tunnel length are written first

together with tunnel’s diameter which is found at the end of optimization studies. An example

which I tried to do by consulting the chief enginner are presented below;

Tunnel entrance elevation = 790.00 m

Tunnel exit elevation = 788.06 m A = 9.62 m2

Tunnel length = 485 m A = 92.57 m4

Tunnel diameter = 3.5 m

Slope of the tunnel = 0.004 Q25 = 42.10 m3/s

Manning coefficient = 0.014 Q50 = 49.40 m3/s

1-Tunnel’s Free Working Case

n2/D1/3 = 0.00013 where n is the manning coefficient. This coefficient is selected by the

engineer and s/he decides the value based on his judgement and experience. “n” changes with

respect to a few other factors such as surface smoothness, vegetation, channel irregularity,

abrasion, obstacles, discharge and so forth.

S0/ ( n2/D1/3) = 30.99 and for this value, d/D value corresponds to 0.66 which means that

unpressured flow case would be observed until %66 of load factor reached in the diversion

tunnel.

After all those calculations, flow consumption chart is prepared encompassing the parameters

such as hv, he, reservoir water elevation and so forth. Following this, input and output

hydrographs are drawn which can be basically defined as a hydrograph intends to show how

the water flow in a drainage basin (particularly river runoff) responds to a period of rain.

What my supervisor told me about how a hydrograph is drawn is that there are two types of

hydrographs that can be enumerated as line graphs and bar graphs. Line graphs are the ones

that they mostly prefer and drawn with two vertical axes. The point where river reaches its

highest level is called peak discharge and another useful info is that where gradients are steep,

water runs off faster. In addition to what has been told so far, derivation discharge curve is

also prepared drawn by placing discharge values on the horizontal axis and water level values

on the vertical axis. Finally, flood routing is done for the purpose of finding the maximum

value of reservoir water elevation among all values. This, in practice, is materialized by

entering discharge values, time intervals, volumes in a spreadsheet application and the rest is

calculated by the programme itself.

At this point, it seems necessary and sensible to present some information about excel macros.

With the aid of visual basic program already embedded in the spreadsheet program,

programming can be done and this is called macro programming. In a default new spreadsheet

its content from the file menu and furher safety options. To create a program interface, forms

are needed and they can be inserted from the insert menu on top. Upon the insertion of an user

form, a toolbox pops up and one can add label and change properties from that menu as well.

Moreover, groupbox and optionbutton created and other programming codes are the same as

any ordinary programming language. In other words, loops created with for command and if-

else structures are created like any other algorithms and pseudo-codes.

This week I learned how to calculate the sluice structures’ hydraulic parameters. Sluice

structures are dam safety structures and their aim is controlling water level and adjusting lake

water level. They are used for protecting the dam safety by discharging the reservoir in case a

dangerous condition appears. Plus, their design are pretty much dependent on the type of dam

body, the topographic and geologic structure of dam’s location and steel pipes having circular

cross sections are placed throughout the derivation structure for cost saving purposes. While

calculation process is ongoing, the losses that occur on a system and the amount of water

discharged from a sluice need to be found. The formula that can be used for calculating

reservoir level is as follows;

Reservoir water level = Pipe exit elevation + water head + velocity head + hydraulic loss

In sluiceway systems grate loss, entrance loss, curve loss, transition loss, friction loss and

branch loss are all possible observation results. Beside those, there may also be valve losses

and some of the valve loss coefficients are presented below;

Clack valve : 0.1

Butterfly valve : 0.2 – 0.26

Spherical valve : 0

Conical valve : 0.2

After sluice characteristics are presented, for different sluice diameter values, minimum and

average water levels are recorded. Then, sluice discharge calculations and discharge energy

losses corresponding to different valve conditions are calculated and presented.

This week I learned how to calculate bill of quantities. Bill of quantities in a dam project

involves a lot of parts and almost each of them requires special attention and methods before

the ultimate solution. Excavations are calculated with the aid of average area and intermediate

Page 28: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

28

distance, by multiplying them total excavation volume can be found. Plinth volumes can be

found in a similar manner as their sections and lengths are known therefore, simply

multiplying them could well lead us to the result. Massprop command in CAD programs is

used to find a solid’s volume which is particularly useful for concrete fills. Plus, some of the

volumes can be measured from Autocad Civil program. At this point, it sounds noteworthy if

some information about Autocad Civil are presented. It can do all the tasks that the standard

Autocad program does. However, it has also some unique and quite useful properties like data

collection from a zone, robust reporting, 3d modelling, excavation calculations, profiles, cross

sections and a few others not named here to save space.

Week 4

I visited the geology department in the company in which I work and retrieved some

information about the tests they apply, how important geology is for dam like structures and

the ground improvement methods used widely before or during the construction. First of all,

injection is a widespread method used for providing the impervious boundary. Some of its

benefits include filling the voids that may lead settlements, controlling the ground water flow,

stabilizing loose and semi-loose sands, controlling ground movements throughout the tunnel

opening, providing slope stabilization and so forth. In this respect, soil experiments play a

major role for a successful dam construction. Those experiments can be divided into two

parts: field tests and laboratory tests. Field tests include tube method and pump experiment

whereas water content, atterberg limits, sieve analysis, triaxial experiments as well as

shearbox and relative density experiments. A thin cut-off wall is constructed by driving a steel

beam into the ground then extracting the beam while injecting a waterproof grout into the

cavity thus formed and its name comes from the thickness of the d-wall which is about 10 to

20 centimeters. Further, stone columns, soil nailing, micropiles are some of the ground

improvement methods used generally. To give an example, preloading is applied to soft soils

with the aim of consolidating the soft ground. Additionally, for cohesionless soils, deep

compaction techniques can be applied to diminish further excessive settlements.

This week I learned how the computer program called hec-ras works and its basic features.

Hec-ras is a free software that possess the ability to both analyze and calculate river flow and

its regime. If one gives the values of field elevations, water level at any kind of discharge

value can be obtained as output. Another important feature to note is that Hec-ras can solve

unsteady flow problems and sediment transport computations as well as steady flow

Page 29: Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in ... · Summer Practice Report concerning the practice done in Eser Project and Engineering Office in Ankara Name : Kadir Can

29

problems. Its background calculations heavily rely on one-dimensional energy equation. Hec-

ras can be used together with a number of other programs including, most notably, the GIS

program ArcView and AutoCAD. Additionally, the program has a strong data storage &

management feature as well as graphic outputs and reporting section.

Interview with the supervisor

Q : Could you please introduce yourself ?

A : I am Mesut Yapmış and I graduated from Sakarya University Civil Engineering

Department in 2005 and I work for Eser Project and Engineering Co. Inc. for one and a half

years as the chief of dam construction section.

Q : Is it possible for you to describe basically what are your responsibilities and tasks in the

company ?

A : I am responsible for assigning tasks to the engineers and draftsmen as well as doing

calculations of bill of quantities and calculating the hydraulics of dam parts.

Q : What kind of departments exist in the company ?

A : There are mainly transportation, geology, irrigation, mechanics, accounting, planning and

some other departments each of which is working in cooperation with one another.

Q : From your point of view, would you prefer working in an office or in a construction site ?

A : I worked in a construction site a few years ago and frankly, what you do on the site is

pretty exhausting and you feel a great deal of fatigue at the end of the day but what you earn

is a bit higher compared with my colleagues who are used to work in an office. Income and

personal preferences should be the factors when one needs to select either of those two.

Q : As a last question could you say a few words about specifically which jobs the company

are currently working on ?

A : Bayburt Kırlartepe Dam and Bursa Karacabey Gölecik Dam are the dam projects that we

are recently preparing and transportation projects about highways in Turkmenistan and

Nigeria are ongoing projects.

CONCLUSION

As my summer practice was totally a part of office work rather than the construction site,

most of the things that I learned was based on technical and theoretical knowledge compared

to practical side of civil engineering. For the sake of discussion, what I basically learned are

what is a dam, why dams are built, the factors, most of which are physical, affecting the

selection of type of dam, dam failures and dam body types. Apart from those enumerated

above, themes such as margin of safety and flood routing calculations were grasped. Stilling

basin and spillway design, hydraulics of diversion tunnels and hydraulic loss calculations

were also in the scope of this summer practice. Additionally, my computer skills were

developed as I learned to use new softwares and found the chance to repeat the skills that I

already possess through practice. Finally, I also had the opportunity to observe how the

employees present their work to their supervisors and bosses, the steps of reporting a task,

how critical time management is, the policies of the company and job hierarchy.
