draught, through
watershed due to
automatic inflation and
deflation mechanism.
Increase per capita
storage capacity and water
use efficiency.
Easy installation.
Reduction of soil erosion.
Ground Recharging.
Built up cost
Lower investment, cost about 40%
than the conventional gated
regulating structure.
Cost Considerations.
Construction cost is mainly divided into two parts
as follows:
Designing of the rubber dam, including dam body
and related operating system.
Manufacturing and installation.
The construction varies with the width of dam.
Anchorage Design
To form rubber dam the membrane is anchored
to the foundations or weir. Rubber dams are
secured to the concrete foundation using a
single or dual row of clamping plates. These
plates are attached to anchor bolts which are
either cast into new foundations or embedded
into existing foundations.
Conclusion
Rubber Dam is an innovative technology, which can be
used profitably for various purposes such as :
1) Water Parks
2) Flood Control
3) Diversion for Building main Dam
4) Repairs of Dams
5) Small Power plants
6)Rural water supply
