Dissipation of energy of the flow by using of weirs can be accomplish in many ways, depending basically on the type of weir. The concept of through and overflow for porous weirs can be use purposively to explain many phenomena such as, dissipating the energy of incoming flow which the flowing of water through the body of the weir contributes in considerable percentage of it, and using of another concepts to represent the dissipated energy in the downstream side of the weir as criterions for energy dissipation. This paper aims to study the dissipated amount of energy for gravel gabion weir by choosing of the difference in energy between upstream and downstream sides of the weir, and the distance of formation of the hydraulic jump as criterions to represent the energy dissipation. The general conclusion shows that both criterions are directly proportional with each other for all series of test runs, while every parameter, fixed of measured, such as length of the weir and diameter of gravel sample has an undular effect on both criterions.
