In 1952 E. S Crump developed the triangular weir shape shown in Fig. P10.122 [Ref. 19, chap. 4], the front slope is 1:2 to avoid sediment deposition, and the rear slope is 1:5 to maintain a stable tail water flow. The beauty of the design is that it has a unique discharge correlation up to near drowning conditions, H2/H1 ≤ 0.75:
