Abstract
This article discusses the very common types of spillway radial gates and develops a program based on Excel, for Optimum design of Radial Gate. The main aim will be to reduce the weight of the gate and its other parts without losing the strength of the gate at any point. To attain the aim of the present study following proposed steps are involved. Study of relevant codes and other literature related to the Radial Gate design. Development of a computer aided design procedure through spread sheet computations. Discuss the results in the context of economical Radial Gate. To discuss the conclusion from observed result.
