Abstract
The paper discusses model studies in the Bureau of Reclamation's Hydraulic Laboratory in which both the direct weighing method and the pressure area computation method were used to determine hydraulic downpull on two high head gates, and one model study in which the pressure area computation method alone was employed. Also described are the methods used and results obtained in the field measurements of the prototype installations.
