Other flow-measuring structures in common use include the HS, H and HL flumes, Parshall flumes, San Dimas flumes, trapezoidal flumes and broad-crested triangular weirs. These are critical depth structures, and therefore can be set lower in the channel than sharp-crested weirs.

D'autres structures de jaugeage communément utilisées incluent les canaux jaugeurs Hs, H et HL, les canaux jaugeurs de Parshall, les canaux jaugeurs de San Dimas, les déversoirs trapézoïdaux et les déversoirs triangulaires à seuil épais. Ce sont toutes des structures où on mesure la profondeur critique d'écoulement et elles peuvent alors être implantées dans le cours d'eau à un niveau plus bas que les réservoirs à paroi mince.
