The paper presents current technical state of the weir and its impact on the conditions of high water flow. Fixed weir at 37+300 km on the River Uszwica situated at Brzesko town has been the investigated object. The spillway of the weir was modeled according to Creager curve. A water intake for the nearby Okocim Brewery owned by Carlsberg company is situated within the influence of the weir damming section. The existing weir was constructed in 1913 by count Goetz. The technical state of the construction was assessed on the basis of an inventory conducted in 2005. It revealed that concrete elements of the structure are in good technical condition, despite some damage on the lower site composed of “stepping stone” and concrete slab of the outlet. Damage formed on the joints of these two elements and on the side walls of the weir does not affect water flow conditions. A scour hole has formed below the slab of the outlet which gradually uncovers the slab founded on coarse sands and gravel susceptible to washing out. Determined was also the weir capacity by computing the flow discharge for bankfull discharge of the weir equal to its side walls on the ...
The results of the calculations of the conveyance of the channel of the river Dłubnia and the weir at Bieńczyce located in the km 6 + 560 of the river Dłubnia were introduced in the work. The results of calculations made possible the indica-tion of the cause of flooding the adjoining terrains during the flood in 18 July 2010. Taking into account outflow from reservoirs in Zesławice in this day to the weir the inflow in the river Dłubnią carried out approximately 70 m3•s-1. This water flow is qualified as the waterside flow. It was showed that this flow would not overflow from the channel Dłubnia below the studied weir. The weir at Bieńczyce is characterizes the smaller conveyance. It was stated that the conveyance of the weir carry out 50.25 m3∙s-1. It was calculated by the assumption that the weir gates will be fully upraised and not making up the obstacles in the overflow of the weir. However the conveyance carries out just 44,61 m3•s-1 accepting the hydraulic scheme, corresponding to the constructional solution of weir locks. It was also stated that because of the conveyance of the weir, smaller than the waterside flow, avoidance of submergence of terrains ...
