Cross Section 2
Cross section 2 is located a
short distance downstream
from the structure.
The computed water surface at
this cross section will represent
the tailwater elevation of the
weir and the gated spillways.
This cross section should not
include any of the structure or
embankment, but represents
the physical shape of the
channel just downstream of the
structure.
Cross Section 3
Located a short distance
upstream of the
embankment
Represents the physical
configuration of the
upstream channel.
The structure and the
roadway embankment are
described by combination of
the deck/road embankment
data, cross section 3, and
the gated spillway data
