Proper Building of Check Dams in Gullies
United States Department of Agriculture engineers describe designing check dams in gullies to control runoff. Dams must be low in the middle and high at ends to prevent overflow, extend into banks to block seepage, and have foundations well below gully bottoms to resist hydraulic pressure.
