Project Details

The DeCordova Bend Dam, operated by the Brazos River Authority, is located near the town of Granbury, Texas. Improvements on this project consisted of structural upgrades to the 16 large radial gates. Once all structural upgrades were complete, each gate was cleaned and re-coated. Each gate was then equipped with a new hoist so that it could be operated independently.
