| § 6.5.1. Sloping Channel Drop |
| § 6.5.2. Vertical Channel Drops |
|
The function of a drop structure is to reduce channel velocities by allowing for flatter upstream and downstream channel slopes. Two commonly used drop structures are shown in Figure 6-2 in Appendix D of this manual. The flow velocities in the upstream and downstream channels of the drop structure need to satisfy the permissible velocities allowed for channels. The design parameters for the sloping channel drop and the vertical channel drop are given below. |
