Exercise-Design of Weir-Option 1

The document provides details for designing a glacis type weir to discharge a flow of 1800 cubic meters per second. Key details include: - The weir will be 10 meters long with a crest elevation of 300.09 meters. - Upstream and downstream cutoff depths are calculated as 3 and 6 meters respectively. - The total proposed length of the weir floor is calculated as 37.82 meters, consisting of horizontal and sloped sections. - Uplift pressures along the weir floor are calculated using Khosla's theory, ranging from 2.81 to 4.71 meters. - Downstream protection works include a 9 meter long concrete apron and 15 meter long broken stone flexible apron
