Levee Floodwall Closure (Non Culvert)

NOTE

Structural potential failure modes are very dependent on site-specific conditions. Final performance event trees used in risk analyses may vary significantly from the typical performance event trees provided in this database due to site-specific component configurations, foundation conditions, and failure processes. Use of the typical structural performance event trees should be done with caution and should be adjusted, as necessary.

NOTE

The conditional probability of failure is the sum of the pathway probabilities that lead to breach (i.e., pathways that end with red triangles).
