Engineering & Design HYDRAULIC DESIGN OF SPILLWAYS 1. Purpose. This manual provides guidance for the hydraulic design of spillways for flood control or multipurpose dams. 2. Applicability. This manual is applicable to all HQUSACE elements and all field operating activities (FDA) having responsibility for the design of Civil Works Projects. 3. General. Procedures recommended herein are considered appropriate for design of features which are usable under most field conditions encountered in Corps of Engineers projects. Basic theory is present & as required to clarify presentation and here the state of the art, as found in standard textbooks, is limited. In the design guidance, where possible, both laboratory and prototype experimental test results have been correlated with current theory. FOR THE COMMANDER: Albert J.
