The dam


The dam or dam was the construction that was developed to keep the rate of water to the reservoir, the lake, or the place of recreation. Often the dam was also used to channel water to a Listrik Tenaga Air Generator. Most dam also had the part that was acknowledged as the lock to throw water that was not wanted in stages or was continuous away.


Dam could be classified according to the structure, the aim or the height. Was based on the structure and the material that were used, the dam could be classified as dam wood, "embankment dam" or "masonry dam", with various sub-types. The aim was made by him including providing water for the irrigation or the provisions of water in urban areas, increased navigation, produced the power hidroelektrik, created the place of recreation or the habitat for the fish and the other animal, the prevention of the flood and kept the disposal from the place of the industry like the mining or the factory. Only several dam that was built for all the aims above. According to the height, dam big higher than 15 metre and dam main more than 150 m.. Whereas, dam low less than 30 m., dam height-medium between 30 - 100 m., and dam high more than 100 m.

Sometimes was that his name of the Sadel Dam in fact was one dike, that is the wall that was built along the side of the lake to protect the land in its surrounds from the flood. This resembled the embankment, that is the wall that was made along the side of the river or the waterfall protect the land around it from being flooded. A Gauge dam overflow dam was drafted to be passed water. Weir was a type of the small gauge dam that was used to measure input water. The Pengecek dam check dam was the small dam that was designed to reduce and control the erosion flow of the land. The dry dam dry dam was the dam that was designed to control the flood. He is usually dry, and will keep water that when being allowed to flood the area beneath it.
The dam half diversionary dam was the dam that did not close sungai. some of the flows ditampuh in the lake was separated, in front of the dam. The wood dam was sometimes used by the person because the limitations of the location and the height were in his place developed. In the Location of the place of the wood dam was made, wood the cheapest material, expensive cement and was difficult to be carried. The wood dam previously often was used, but most have been changed with the concrete, especially in industrialised countries. Several dams dam still was used. Wood also the base that was used by the otter, often also was increased mud and the stone to make the angry-dark red da. The Batu Tegi dam, this was my visit around two years ago. Previously in fact my arrival to this Batu Tegi Dam not to go on a trip or recreation, but because my obsession wanted to have a garden and to he said have the person who will sell his garden then I tried to see him who knew agreed, eh finally the garden ngak I could only one the piece the story and the memory once there that possibly could I for. The Batu Tegi dam was declared by Prisiden Megawati Soekarno Putri on March 8 2004, oh around four years ago and his execution ate wak tu around eight years. The dam was indeed big it seems biggest in South-East Asia I believed then, because like that was seen by me the dam really quite big that is uniting two quite high hills and water that welled up menengelamkan small hills that were located in the dam upstream. On the dam was the asphalted road that was wide enough around 10 m. complete with the pavement, the flowerpot, At the time I met one of the guards of the picket who was assigned, I could ask about the list monument of the name of accident casualties at the time of the development of the dam. The total name number of casualties who were carved dimonumen that had 13 people. To thirteen casualties was killed when doing a disposal tunnel of very big water berdiameter tens metre and the length hundreds metre down, they terimpa the implement pengecor cement weighing tens ton, said the guard of the dam. I horrified heard him what next if seeing directly the tunnel, as having his magical power that absorbed. Overturned by the hair-raising story the process of his development, the stone dam tegi was one of the tourist attractions that offered picturesque scenery, the area territory of the dam was very wide extraordinary. Since entering the gate close to the main road down to the area of the dam of much scenery that could be enjoyed. When we were he on the dam and saw to the upstream part (upper) we feel like saw the wide ocean, and when we saw under us could see the ladder, the office and the machine of the electricity generator like that the small size.
