its a stabilization release gate for a hydroelectric dam's reservoir. They put these in for dams in areas where precipitation and thus reservoir depth is highly variable. In this way they can avoid the risk of catastrophic spill-over, which could easily destroy the dam.

You could canoe down to the bottom, but it has a large rebar cage to keep trees n shit from going thru. You would get stuck, and the heavy current would likely rip you to pieces eventually.

couldn't find an english schematic, so a german one will have to do

it's basically just a gigantic concrete funnel that automatically leads water away once waters levels reach a critical point.

Yeah, but where is the outlet
>>
>>7951407
Outlet is on the other side of the dam, into the outlet channel (can be the main channel or a side channel depending on reservoir dimensions and geography)
