- Problem 7 Water is flowing in a channel with a rectangular cross-section. The channel has a uniform width of b 10 m, and it is equipped with a broad-crested weir. The height of flow in a channel far upstream of the weir is h₁ 2 m, while the weir is == hweir = 0.8 m above the bed of the channel. = 1. Assuming the flow over the weir is critical, calculate the flow rate in the channel by iteratively solving for the critical depth he. Perform at least 3 iterations. Did the flow rate converge? 2. Given the water depth immediately downstream of the weir is 90% of the critical depth hc, what is the water depth after the flow experiences a hydraulic jump further downstream? 3.

The span length will be decided by the pair. The pair has to choose a suitable sustained service live load (from 300-1500plf) and superimposed dead load (50-150plf) and has no concrete topping. Assume the beam is made of normal-weight concrete with fc'= 5,000 psi and that the concrete strength f'ci at transfer is 70 percent of the cylinder strength. .
