Canal aqueducts
Ancient non-navigable aqueducts for water supply: Niniveh, Assyria 700 BC, Acqua Marcia, Rome 144 BC, Segovia, Spain 10 AD, Pont du Gard, Nimes, France 14 AD 1462-1470 navigable canal aqueduct Adda-Milan, Italy 1779 cast iron canal bridge over river Severn, UK 1847 Delaware Hudson canal aqueduct, USA 1914 reinforced concrete aqueduct Minden, Germany 2000 Elbe crossing canal aqueduct Magdeburg, Germany (Project 17 German Unity)

Inclined planes
Ancient primitive portages to bypass ships around river rapids or to connect two navigable waters Later: gentle gradient slipways. Boats were draged through shallow water an aprons of stonework 12th century AD slipway in the Netherlands15th century AD rope hauled short inclines to convey boats in wheeled cradles: 1437 Lizzafusina on river Brenta, Italy (near Venice) 18th century double and counterbalanced long inclines e.g. in Ireland 19th century railway canal links, powered inclines

Locks
Fundamental to the ability of any navigation to rise or fall was the use of lock-gates to hold one reach of water at a higher level than an adjoining section 1st century BC Single (or "flash") lock-gates in use (Chien-Lu Dam and canals near Nanyang, in the valley of the Euphrates, or the port of Sidon) for irrigation and sluicing purposes

late 12th century AD In Europe, the lock was developed initially to overcome two specific problems: - a desire to allow boats to enter a drainage and navigable water system which was protected by dykes (single lifting gate portcullis type), - the need to increase the depth of water available for the navigation of rivers (weirs with removable wooden boards ).

boats sailing up or down the river on the "flash" of water released when the boards were removed. earliest single-gate locks in Europe: Netherlands at Nieuwpoort, in Italy on the river Mincio at Governolo, Stecknitz Canal in Germany (1398) was the first summit canal in Europe, a progression made possible by the use of single locks. 10th century AD 1373 China: the chamber lock radically reduced water usage. in Europe at Vreeswijk (Netherlands), where the canal from Utrecht entered the river Lek, in more upland canal schemes 15th-century in Italy building of a lock in Milan (1420) A Chinese text of mentions a staircase of locks. In Europe they were first used in France, when the Canal du Briare (France) opened in 1642

1072 AD

late 15th century AD The mitre stem gate was probably introduced in Italy by Bertola da Novate, earliest drawings are by Leonardo da Vinci and date from the late 15th century 1754 The earliest known (but unsuccessful) shaft lock was built on the line of the uncompleted trans-Sweden canal at Trollhttan

Improvements in lock design have continued throughout this century, with different types of gate design appearing. These have included gates which lift and rotate, increasing headroom under the raised gate, gates which slide to one side, gates which lower either sliding vertically or are hinged at the bottom, and sector and segment gates which are curved and thus distribute stresses more evenly. Gates are also now used for emptying and filling locks, doing away with the necessity for sluices and paddle gear.

Simple water wheels were the predominant hydropower machines during several centuries, driving mills for grinding and sawing 19th century Turbines from 1900 after invention of long distance electricity transmission with alternating current also large dams for hydropower from 1930 pumping storage (for balance between base load and peak demand)

Dams
3000 1000 BC 1000 BC 300 BC 300 AD embankment dams impound reservoirs mostly for irrigation water, dams partial without (sufficient) spillway dams with spillways, intakes ancient Roman dams for drinking and spa water supply in southern Europe, dams often combined structures: upstream masonry, downstream embankment fill, water transport via aqueducts and covered canals prime of masonry and concrete dam construction e.g. in mediaeval Spain reservoirs for mining water supply in Germany (Freiberg), embankment dams with steep slopes new era of masonry dams, drinking water supply for the quickly growing cities e.g. in Germany and France requires large reservoirs after invention of electricity transmission with alternating current also large dams for hydropower concrete dams of several types (gravity, arch, multiple arch, vault) very high (major) dams, Concrete dams H > 250 m: e.g. Grande Dixence, Vajont; rockfill dams: e.g. Nurek different techniques for concrete dams: climbing formwork, roller compacted concrete (rcc) multipurpose reservoirs (water supply, flood protection, hydropower )
