Recently, we have a growing interest in the washland construction for the function of flood control. Therefore this study analyzed flood reduction effect of washland using hydraulic experiment. We used open-channel unit for flood reduction effect of washland. And we used side weir to lateral structure. The result of hydraulic experiment showed a decrease of the average velocity and discharge according to the installation location of side weir. Also, we compared the results of HEC-RAS model and hydraulic experiment for the review of the result of
hydraulic experiment. As the result, hydraulic experiment and HEC-RAS model have showed the similar results.
