Shot beams on the Dender in Pollare (Ninove) aim to regulate and control water levels. Here is a brief explanation of how they work:
1. Function:
- The bulkhead beams form a dam in the Dender, which allows the water level to be regulated upstream.
- They allow managing water discharge and flow according to need.
2. Construction:
- The bulkhead beams consist of wooden or metal panels placed vertically in slots in the banks or structure.
- The height of the bulkhead beams can be adjusted by adding or removing panels.
3. Operation:
- Raising the bulkhead beams raises the water level upstream.
- Removing bulkhead beams increases water discharge and decreases the water level upstream.
- This makes it possible to adjust the water level and flow according to the need, for example during drought, high water or maintenance work.
4. Management:
- Management and operation of the bulkhead bars are in the hands of the manager, often a water board or municipality.
- They determine when and how the bulkhead bars are adjusted to regulate water flow.
The bulkhead beams on the Dender in Pollare thus play an important role in managing the water level and discharge in this area.
