ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present the debrisflow regulatory barrages innovative construction specifications. By evaluating the dynamic nature of debrisflows we determine the methodology of building debris flow regulating constructions and specific elements in said constructs. By taking in mind the river bed and its topographical parameters, we determine debrisflow regulatory elastic barrages geometrical size and we mapped out its designs specific example. By assessing the maximum discharge of the debrisflow, we determine its, dynamical, influence metrics, which in practice helps us assess the constructions reliability and risks of it being rendered unusable by the aforementioned factors.
