In most cases, these formulas give controversial results which lead to a disagree between the project owner, the engineers and the designers. This study aims to develop a consensual approach by performing a calculation code on small dams in northern part of Algeria, initially based on empirical formulas, which let to identify several mathematical relationships. A comparative analysis based on various significant parameters allowed defining an optimal relation to guide managers’ decisions to choose the crest width dimension. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z
