Buryport Harbour
KGAL were appointed by Tema, working with Dean & Dyball, to provide
the design and detailed drawings for a bottom hinged "half tide" tilting
gate across the entrance to Buryport Harbour.
The 15.3m span x 2.6m deep gate is designed to retain a designated
"half tide" water level in the harbour; it is lowered on a rising tide to
provide free navigation, and raised on a falling tide to maintain the
harbour water level.
KGAL also designed the hydraulic operating and electrical control
systems to the tilting gate and a set of maintenance stoplogs.
