摘要

Tom Miller Dam has a unique and interesting history with three failures and two major reconstructions. The present dam is a composite structure combining structural elements from the original construction and each reconstruction. Located on the Colorado River in Austin, Texas, the Dam is owned by the City of Austin and operated by the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). Although the dam is only 1440 feet long and ranges in height from 60 to 100 feet, the dam was reported to be the largest dam in the world built across a major flowing river when originally constructed in 1890. Although it is no longer the largest dam, it is still an important resource providing primary drinking water supply for the City and hydro-electric power generation for the LCRA. During the LCRA Dam Modernization Program, the extreme flood events were re-evaluated. The Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) for Tom Miller Dam is 834,000 cfs. Stability analyses showed that the structure was subject to a more severe loading condition than that of the original design. As a result, improvements to the dam were required to bring the dam in compliance with modern design criteria. In conjunction with the Utah Water Research Laboratory, a physical hydraulic modeling program was completed.
