DESIGN REPORT OF DEFE DAM

1.0 Introduction

Defe Dam site is located on Gadzi river, in Gokwe, Midlands Province.

The proposed dam is intended to provide water to irrigate 300 hectares downstream of the dam.
This project is poised to be the first only medium dam in the district anticipated to promote food
self-sufficiency, create employment for the local community through tourist related activities of
water sports, fishing including the hospitality industry. The new water body formed is also
anticipated to be a new to be a new bird sanctuary.

2.0 Location and Access

The dam location is on Grid PL 555387 Map No. 1728 C3 of the 1:50 000 series in Gokwe
District of Midlands Province. The dam site is on Gadzi River, which is a tributary to a major
River (Sesame River). The district lies below in a low rainfall area in which the area receives
only 684 mm of rain on average year.
The proposed Defe Dam can be accessed from Gokwe Centre over 65 km of the Gokwe-
Chitekete road. On the 65km peg, turn left and travel for 15km on gravel road to Defe ZCC
shrine, and a further 10km north-east on narrow road to site.

3.0 Historical Background

Preliminary surveys have been conducted on site. However they are two potential sites, which
are 100m, and 300m, upstream of the investigated site.
A further investigation on the two sites is recommended to make a comparison with the proposed
site.

4.0 Topography and Geology

The site has scattered medium height trees on both banks. Solid weathered rock outcrops is
evident stretching mainly on the left bank, and also part of the riverbed. The right bank is
characterized by solid weathered rock outcrops.
The proposed spillway area is located the extreme left bank where solid rock though slightly
weathered is evident.
It is recommended to carryout geological investigations including core drilling in order has been
decided the final position of spillway as well as depth of excavations.

5.0 Hydrology
Hydrological Zones AZ4
Zonal Catchment Areas 204 km2

6.2.1 Flood routing

It has been proposed that the spillway be located on the extreme left bank where solid rock is
exposed.
A flood routing exercise done produced 100 metre long ogee spillway on a full supply level of
741,00m with a capacity of 19.2 x 106 m3 and surface area of 277.3 ha. Other spillway options
need to be investigated.
The following are the relevant flood routing details:-

Full Supply Capacity - 19.2 x 106 m3
Full Supply Level R L - 741, 00 m
Reservoir Area at FSL - 277.3 ha
Maximum Probable Flood (1:10 000 Year Flood) - 1466m3/s
Peak Flow (1:2000 Year Flood) - 1088m3/s
Storm Intensity - 36.3 mm
Time to Peak Inflow - 4.07 hrs
Peak Outflow - 450m3/s
Discharge Coefficient at Peak Outflow - 2, 1607
Flood Rise - 1.85m
River bed level RL - 719,55 m
High Flood Level - 742 m
Wind Fetch - 4 km
Dry Freeboard - 1.05 m
Crest Level RL - 745, 00m
Ogee Crest Spillway Length - 100m

6.3 Embankment
The embankment design is a conventional zoned earth fill with a central impervious core of side
slopes 0.5:1 with the pervious out-shells having an upstream slope of 1:2, 5 and downstream
slope of 1:2 respectively. Chimney and blanket drains including a coarse filter toe have been
provided for drainage purposes.
Rip rap is placed on upstream slope, and grassing on the downstream slope.
Two berms are provided on the downstream slope.
The overall embankment length will be 1200 metres excluding the spillway and training wall.

6.3.1 Design Features

The design features of the embankment are as follows:-
Crest level R L - 745, 00m
Crest width - 4m
Crest length (excluding spillway) - 1200m
Upstream slope - 1: 2, 5
Downstream slope - 1: 2, 0
Upstream Rip-rap thickness - 1, 50m
Upstream Coarse Filter thickness - 1, 00m
Downstream Rip-rap thickness - 1, 20m
Downstream Coarse Filter thickness - 0.6mm
Earth fill Volume fill - 990 000m3
Earth fill Volume Core - 495 000m3
Earth fill Volume Total - 1 485 000m3
River bed level R L - 719,55 m
Embankment height above river bed level - 25.45 metres
Maximum Settlement Allowance - 1,05 metres
Maximum Depth of Water - 21.45 metres
Rock fill Volumes - 16,341.24 m3
Coarse Filter Volumes - 1,453.66 m3
Sand Volumes - 35,696.8m3

6.4 Foundation and Cut-Off Trench

The foundation consists of solid weathered rock on the left bank right through the river bed. On
the right bank rock outcrops are evident. The area with poor quality overburden requires to be
totally cleared to solid rock up to the embankment toe and the overburden wasted.
It is then necessary to presplit and blast the solid rock to facilitate a key and longer seepage path
to the core. The blast trench is to have 0, 5 to 1 side slopes and fixed minimum base of 4 metres.
Soft excavation areas are to have a 1:1 slope.

6.5 Outlets
The outlet system will consist of a gate tower located on the left bank, of the river bed just
upstream of the embankment crest. The gate tower will have a 600 mm permanent wet access
single steel inlet with sliding service gates and a trash screen at the upstream inlet. Two 600mm
steel outlet pipes will be provided for use alternatively and will be controlled by a set of butterfly
valves per pipe in the valve house at the downstream of the earth embankment.
The outlet design provision is based on the department’s policy for twin outlet pipes, each
capable of delivering double the 10% yield (assuring a storage of 2 x MAR) when the water level
in the reservoir gives a capacity of 10% of the full supply capacity.
The design flow provision of one pipe is based on the following:-
Gross MAR - 8, 0 x 106 m3
Storage at 2 x MAR - 16 x 106 m3
10% Yield at 2 x MAR - 32 x 106 m3
Peak Demand - 2 x Potential Yield
= 64 x 106 m3

The outlet level is at RL 733.70.

7.0 Materials
The embankment will consist of a total volume of 1 733 426 m3 comprising of:-
Fill - 990 000 m3
Core - 495 000 m3
Rip-rap (u/s and d/s) - 38 108 m3
Sand - 17 409 m3
Rock Toe - 16,341.24 m3

Initially materials investigations conducted on site reflected that both core and fill materials can
be found on both the left and right bank. Further investigations need to be carried out to identify
borrow areas.
It is anticipated a fair amount of solid rock will be found near the site necessitating blasting to
produce the bulk of rip-rap to top up on stone recovered on cut off and dam foundation blasting
including outlet works foundations.
In order to produce required water clearance gradients on the return channel it may also be
necessary to establish a quarry for concrete aggregate in the exposed spillway area including also
for all masonry work.
The fill material is also suitable for use as 80 mm coarse filter if provision as made to wash out
the unnecessary fines.
Sand for bulk use in fine filters and concrete will need to be investigated on the same Gadzi
River, or other rivers nearby.
8.0 Irrigation
8.1 Land
The project will initially facilitate the development of 800 hectares on lands located further
downstream, and also on community areas near the dam.

9.0 Roads
It is also necessary to provide good gravel roads to facilitate easy movement within the project
area for the successful operation and maintenance of the project including produce movement.

10.0 Water Supply Provision

In order to meet the growing needs of the community nearby, and the ZCC church needs, it is
necessary to provide a comprehensive modern treatment infrastructure.

15.0 Inundation and Compensation

Further investigations are needed to ascertain homesteads that will be inundated by the high
flood level of 750 m

16.0 Cost Estimate

Details of the schedule of quantities and cost estimate are attached in item 18.
The summary of costs is as follows:-
DAM INFRASTRUCTURE CONTRACT PRICE - US$87,267,227.88

17.0 Conclusion
The total project cost of US$87,267,227.88 will ensure full project development and provide
instant jobs during and after implementation of the project thereby substantially improving the
quality of life of people in Gokwe district in general.
