3.Why is the downstream sloping glacis of a hydraulic structure designed in a particular manner?
4.What is the term for a weir whose weight counteracts the uplift pressure generated by the water seeping beneath its base due to the water head?
5.What is the term for a groyne that extends downstream, aligned with the flow of a river?
