Guidelines for lateral dike spacing were developed at the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. The guidance was based on laboratory flume analyses and applies to dikes designed for channel maintenance. Various dike plans were tested to develop energy loss versus dike length-to-spacing relationships, and spacing guidelines are presented in the form of a design outline. The testing program also included alternating dikes versus dikes positioned directly across from each other in the flume channel test section and angled dike field entrance dikes as an energy loss reduction measure.
