La notion de crue de projet est essentiellement subjective en ce sens qu'elle tient, ou peut tenir, compte des conditions économiques du projet et des risques encourus, de la nature de ces risques (vies humaines, industries, pertes agricoles ...). Par ailleurs, suivant la nature de l'aménagement (réservoir, fil de l'eau ...), le paramètre à prendre en considération peut être le débit instantané maximal ou le volume assorti éventuellement de la forme de la crue (hydrogramme de la crue de projet). 4, record 1, French, - crue%20de%20projet
