In October 1999, 1 of 17 radial spillway gates failed on the Singur Dam in Andhra Pradesh, India.
The right side arm supported the gate for 22 hours before becoming completely dislodged and washing away.
The Andhra Pradesh State authorities attributed the failure of the gate to inadequate welding between the trunnion girder and the tie flats (Mande et al., 2000).
