5. Experience of Czech Republic<br />
The cross section shape of the dam shall be determined in accordance with calculations<br />
to ensure its stability. The standard cross section diagram shown in Figure 5.18 and Table<br />
5.26 shall be used in determining the preliminary cross section shape of the small dam<br />
