Test setup by the dam

In the summer 2013 further research on feedback from our case description at location A, led to the design of a simple and flexible damming setup which has been temporary installed. This step was possible due to free access of concrete blocks and volunteering work from the local kayak club. We greatly appreciate this help!
The following shows pictures from the test setup and installation work.
