The spillway is of ample size to dischargethe greatest flood likely to occur during thelife of the structure. At a depth of 2 ft. thespillway can discharge over the crest an actualrunoff of at least 2(10 cu. ft. per second persquare mile from the tributary , together with the storage in the reser-voir, is sufficient to take care of the maximumfloods. The construction of the spillway sec-tion of the dam is shown in detail in Fig. 2. OF DESIGN. Both the spillway and the concrete end sec-tions are designed to resist the full hydro-static pressure from the maximum flood level,which has been assumed to be elevation to bed rock. The deck is to be made of reinforced con-crete mixed in the proportion of one part ofcement, two parts of sand and four
