Abstract

This paper describes the application of the Trial Load Method to the analysis of Clark Dam, a unit of the Tarraleah Development built and operated by The Hydro Electric Commission of Tasmania. Samples of the actual calculation forms used are included and the methods of computation are explained. The final analysis of the dam as constructed is presented with specimen computations, and the remainder suitably condensed and tabulated.
