River weirs. Design, maintenance, modification and removal

This guide provides good practice guidance on the design, maintenance, modification and removal of river weirs, including weirs on canalised rivers, canal by-weirs and side weirs, and river barrages. It does not cover dams, reservoir spillways, estuarine barrages or structures regulating natural lakes. It will have a broad readership given the wide range of stakeholders involved in the operation of weirs and the use of rivers and its structure reflects this. Readers will come to the guide with different perspectives, depending on their aims and the questions they are trying to answer. The guide aims to direct readers towards the information that they are looking for, and to alert them to other issues that they may not be aware of. Database: http://ciriaweirsdb.ciria.org/
