Mini Hydroelectric Concrete Dam
Introduction: Mini Hydroelectric Concrete Dam
Hi Friends.
After Long time I make a mini concrete dam using cement, sand , water and steel bars.
For making this mini hydroelectric dam model you need following Items.
1. Cement, Sand, Steel, Water.
2. Gum and Foam Sheet
3. 3d Printer and PLA Filament of different color
4. 120
Dc motor, Stepper motor, Bulb and wire
5. Basic Stationary Material
So let's start making.
Step 1: Watch Full Video on Youtube

Step 2: Excavation and Foundation
Make excavation like pic 1. in your ground.
Then cut steel bars and bending stirrup like pic 3.
we make 14 stirrup and 12 strait bars.
Step 3: Foundation Reinforcement
Then we settled all bars and stirrups.
Space between two stirrups 4 cm and bars was 2 cm.
Step 4: Shuttering of Foundation
We use 3d Printer for making plastic stepper motor stand.
We need two stepper motor stands for upward movement of door.so we placed both side.
I attached 3d .stl file for making stepper motor stand.
Then we cut two shuttering for concreting and stick with heels.
Step 5: Concrete Filling
After some time we pour well mixed concrete and vibrate for no bubble gap of concrete.
we need about 1.5 feet3 of concrete for this pouring.
After this pour wait for 24 hours.
Step 6: Dissemble Shuttering
After 24 hour complete dissemble shuttering and remove tap above stepper motor stand.
Step 7: Reinforcement of Side Wall
For making side wall place steel bars and joint all cross point.
Step 8: Stepper Motor for Upward Movement of Door
After this place two stepper motor in place of stand.
Step 9: Slider of Dam Door
Make slider wall in 3d printer and place both side of stepper motor.
Then cut shuttering for both side wall and stick with gum.
.stl file for slider wall is attached in this step.
Step 10: Concreting of Side Wall
Then pour concrete and vibrate this. After 24 hours you can dissemble scaffolding.
Step 11: Slider Parts Installation
Then again 3d print slider door and place this using 6mm steel bars for sliding smoothly.
Step 12: Dam Door RCC
After this place steel bars between slider for making door.
Stick two column stirrups for road and place shuttering for dam door.
Step 13: Concreting of Dam Door
Then pour concrete inside dam door and wait for 24 hours.
After this time dissemble shuttering and check the slide up and down.
Step 14: Install Belt for Movement
Then Install belt for moving mechanically between stepper motor and slide door.
wiring the stepper motor and check movement.
Step 15: Dam Road
After check place shuttering for road above dam for moving vehicles.
Step 16: Reinforcement of Road
Place steel bars on road for RCC.
Step 17: Concreting of Road
Then pour concrete last time in this road and wait for 24 hours again.
Step 18: Remove Shuttering
Remove all shuttering carefully and check movement of door upward and down.
Step 19: Hydroelectric Dam Installation
Then make plastic stand for dc motor and turbine using 3d printer.
Place dc motor on stand and stick with it, then wiring two dc bulb as per picture.
Step 20: Practical Working of Dam.
