EDF chose Joseph Paris (Fayat subsidiary) to design and set up the spillway gate. 

OBJECTIVE: TO TRIPLE FLOW RATE


The structure was built in eight max. 12-tonne sections to meet on-site assembly requirements - particularly assembly 48m from the work zone. Two specifically-designed chain winches are used to lower this articulated gate during the winter period. The company designed, manufactured then commissioned the gate. It was assembled in partnership with Savco, sheet metal structure specialist.
