Projeto para o vertedor no riacho Olho D'Aguinha localizado no município de Delmiro Gouveia - AL

Abstract

The Brazil Northeast region presents a spatial and temporal variety of water caused by a long periods of drought, it is a limitant factor to social and economic development. In this way, the regional hydrological process knowledge is crucial to minimize water wastage during rainy time. In this context, the ECOBEER project was developed with the objective to obtain information to characterize the semi-arid region of Alagoas state. The project uses a diverse procedures and equipment to monitore small watersheds, among them the weir, will analyze the flow of the Olho D’Aguinha stream, it belongs to Hydrographic Basin of Olho d’Água stream. The project design for this spillway was based on methodologies and measures that guarantee the maximum of confidence. For this, some relevant concepts to understanding the project and the methodology used in the study are presented. Then, the hydraulic dimensioning of the weir, its constructive characteristics and the cost for its implantation are shown.
