Broad-crested Weirs

Broad-Crested Weir is a type of flow-measuring hydraulic structure in open channels characterized by a wide, horizontal crest that extends significantly across the channel width, distinguishing it from sharp-crested weirs by promoting nearly parallel, critical flow conditions over the crest due to its length relative to the upstream head.
