    Downstream piles are placed at the end of the downstream concrete floor to check exit gradients and their depth should exceed potential scour depth. Weirs are equipped with shutters or gates to maintain pond levels; shutters provide cheaper but slower control while gates allow better regulation by raising water levels during low supply and lowering gates for overflow during floods.

    Main Barrages Portion

    Down Stream Piles:


    • These are placed at the end of the d/s concrete floor and their main function is to
    check the exit gradient. Their depth should be greater than the maximum possible
    scour.
    Shutters or Gates:
    • Weirs are provided either with shutters or counter balanced gates to maintain pond
    level. A shuttered weir is relatively cheaper but locks in speed. Better control is
    possible in a gated weir (barrage). Their function is
    • To maintain pond level.
    • To raise the water level during low supplies.
    • In case of higher floods, shutters are dropped down and overflow takes place while
    in case of gated weir, gates are raised during floods.
