Bascule Gates

These gates are used to control the flow of water in a river. The gate structure incorporates a torque tube along the bottom edge which transfers the water load through to the actuator, this is normally a hydraulic cylinder.
  • Advantages
    • The gate installation is unobtrusive.
    • Operated from one side.
  • Disadvantages
    • The actuator is located in a pit alongside the water channel and passes through a seal in the side wall.
