    Description of the Sharp Crested Weirs for Open Channel Flow Measurement course

    The Sharp Crested Weirs for Open Channel Flow Measurement online PDH course is a part of the Civil Engineering category of courses.

    A weir is basically an obstruction in an open channel flow path.  Weirs are commonly used for measurement of open channel flow rate.  A weir functions by causing water to rise above the obstruction in order to flow over it.  The height of water above the obstruction correlates with the flow rate, so that measurement of the height of the flowing water above the top of the weir can be used to determine the flow rate through the use of an equation, graph or table.  The top of the weir, which is used as the reference level for the height of water flowing over it, is called the crest of the weir.  Weirs are typically classified as being either sharp-crested or broad-crested.  This course is devoted to the more widely used sharp-crested weir.  The major emphasis is on the calculations used for flow rate over various types of sharp-crested weirs.  There is also information about guidelines for installation and use of sharp-crested weirs.

    This course is intended for hydrologists, civil engineers, hydraulic engineers, highway engineers and environmental engineers.  An attendee of this course will gain knowledge about calculations and installation & measurement guidelines for sharp-crested weirs as used to measure flow rate in open channels.  Upon completing this course, the student will be prepared to study additional open channel flow measurement topics.

     Learning Objectives:

    At the end of the course, you will:

    • Be familiar with standard terminology used in connection with sharp-crested weirs for open channel flow measurement.
    • Be able to use the Kindsvater-Carter equation to calculate the flow rate over a suppressed rectangular weir for given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Be able to use the Kindsvater-Carter equation to calculate the flow rate over a contracted rectangular weir for given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Know the conditions required in order to use the appropriate form of the Francis equation instead of the Kindsvater-Carter equation to calculate the flow rate over a suppressed rectangular weir for given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Know the conditions required in order to use the appropriate form of the Francis equation instead of the Kindsvater-Carter equation to calculate the flow rate over a contracted rectangular weir for given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Know the conditions required in order to use the Cone equation, Q = 2.49 H2.48, to calculate the flow rate over a V-notch weir for given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Be able to use the Kindsvater-Shen equation to calculate the flow rate over a V-notch weir for notch angles other than 90o, given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Be able to check on whether required conditions are met and make calculations of flow rate over a cipolleti weir for given head over the weir and weir dimensions.
    • Be familiar with installation and use guidelines for sharp-crested weirs for open channel flow measurement.

     Refunds and Cancellation Policies

    The course is accepted by the Professional Engineering boards in states listed on this page. In an unlikely case the course is not accepted by the board listed on this page, we will refund the full payment and will pay for you to take another course of equivalent monetary and PDH / CEU value. For complete list of courses related to Civil Engineering category of courses please click here.

    Length of the Course / Activity

    This course is intended to be studied at self-pace and it should take on average of 3 hour to read and be able to comprehend the material to successfully past the online quiz.

    Course Quiz

    To receive the certificate of completion for the above 3 PDH online course, you will need to take a 15-question multiple choice quiz based on the reference material supplied and pass with minimum score of 70%. There is no time limit for the quiz and it can be taken multiple times until a passing score of 70% is achieved.

    Certificate of Completion

    Once you achieve a passing score of 70% on the quiz you will receive and be able to print your Certificate of Completion as a record of your continuing education. PDH Star will keep a record of your certificate for the duration as required by your state of licensure. You will be able to log on to your account and view and print your past Certificate of Completion.
