Crowder's Mountain Dam Restoration
Investigation of the Crowder's Mountain Dam located in Gaston County, North Carolina. The objective of the project was to identify obvious conditions that may lead to structural failure of the existing spillway and assess whether immediate repair was warranted. A down-hole camera was utilized to inspect the principal spillway and to determine replacement and repair of the existing spillway barrel, pictured lower right. The results of the investigation concluded that slip lining the barrel of the principal spillway was the most feasible alternative. As part of our design we also prepared an Emergency Action Plan and an Operations Maintenance Plan.
