Measurement of The Flow of Streams by Approved Forms of Weirs with New Formulas And Diagrams
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 77, Issue 1
Abstract
It is probable that in the near future practically every farmer in the West will be required to place a weir at the head of his farm for the purpose of measuring the irrigating water be uses. Wherever water is used for any purpose, its measurement, in a more or less accurate way, is important; but in the middle and western parts of the United States, and wherever else practically all agricultural interests depend on water for purposes of irrigation, this problem is of the utmost importance. Water has already become so valuable in these sections that laws have been enacted requiring that weirs be placed in every important stream.
