A weir is used to measure the flowrate in an open channel that is (Bw =) 5 m wide and (Ho =) 2 m deep. The depth of water over the crest of the weir (H) should be no less than 0.5 m when the flowrate (Q) is 1 m3/s and the water level should be at least 30 cm below the top of the channel. Determine the crest length of the weir (B). Take Cd = 0.6 and the weir is the sharp-crested type weir.

A 450 mm diameter culvert has been designed to convey a discharge of Q = 0.55 m3/s of storm-water under a residential road. The culvert is 37.5 m long and has a slope of 1.3%. The downstream flow depth was obtained as 0.35 m from a hydraulic analysis. You are required to determine:1.1 the head required to convey the discharge through the culvert at full flow conditions;(a) If concrete pipe is used with a Manning’s roughness coefficient of n = 0.0155 with an inlet headwall of socket type. (b) If corrugated steel pipe is used with a Manning’s roughness coefficient n=0.024 with an inlet headwall of square edge design. 1.2 What is the corresponding headwater depth in 1.1 (a) and (b) above?
There is a rectangular channel that will be excavated downstream of a dam after a stilling basin both with a width of 15 meters. The depth of the wather flow upstream of the dam is 4.27 meters and the discharge flow above the dam is 112.5 cubic meters per second. the channel wil be excavated in earth and n = .o25 and maintains a uniform flow depth under a subcritical flow regime. I need to determine 1. the bottom channel slope needed in the downstream channel and 2. the length of the stilling basin if the dissipation stucture starts at dissipated along the structure. The design should consider that the flow depth at the end of the still basin is similar to the flow depth in the channel. For a more realistic approach in the design, the head loss between the station upstream of the dam and the station at the beginning of the still basin is 10% of the velocity head observed at the beginning of the basin
