Innovative Shield Type Spillway Dam – A Revolution in River Damming

In the field of modern water conservancy engineering, the Shield Type Spillway Dam stands out as an advanced solution, combining the strengths of rubber dams and hydraulic elevator dams.

Application of Shield Type Spillway Dam in River Management

In 2024, Hengyang Rubber successfully implemented its Shield Type Spillway Dam solution in Guangdong Province, marking a breakthrough in regional river damming technology. This project showcases the reliability and efficiency of the innovative shield dam system, offering a model for modern flood control, irrigation support, and hydropower utilization.

Project Overview

The site, located along a medium-scale river with frequent seasonal water fluctuations, demanded a durable yet flexible solution that could withstand varying flow conditions while ensuring safe water discharge during peak seasons. Hengyang’s Shield Type Spillway Dam proved to be the optimal choice.

Why the Shield Type Spillway Dam?

This advanced dam solution, which combines the structural strength of steel panels with the adaptability of rubber bladder technology, provided significant benefits in the Guangdong project:

· Enhanced Durability: The integrated steel shield structure delivers long-term resilience against water impact, debris, and UV exposure.

· Flexible Regulation: The rubber bladder system allows for precise water level adjustment, adapting to seasonal needs and emergency scenarios.

·  Low Maintenance: Engineered with a service life of up to 30 years, this dam significantly reduces upkeep efforts and costs.

· Multi-Functional Application: Efficiently addresses requirements for flood discharge, irrigation flow, and small-scale hydropower generation.

Project Outcome

After installation, the dam performed with high efficiency during the rainy season, demonstrating excellent stability and discharge control. The local authorities reported improved river safety, optimized irrigation capacity, and reduced flood risks.
