Although the aesthetics of dam design did gain attention during the 20th century, at the end of the century many works on dams contained little or no discussion of dam aesthetics – including Jansen 1988, Schnitter 1994, Siddiqui 2009, and Schleiss 2022.

    Many dams contain galleries: long, horizontal passages that contain equipment, support water drainage, or permit workers to perform inspections. Galleries are not the same as the large chambers found within hollow gravity dams, created to reduce the amount of concrete used.^[33]
    The channel that conveys water to the generator may consist of two parts: the headrace (a horizontal channel that is not under pressure); and the penstock (a sloping or vertical channel that must be strong enough to withstand the weight of the water). The intake is always covered with a trash rack (grate) at the top to prevent debris from reaching the generator.^[239]
