Hi all. I’ve been looking at the Bridge Output table and noticed that the Flow Area at BR U is larger than the bridge opening. And it uses that larger flow area to calculate the flow velocity at BR U. How can the flow area be larger than the bridge opening? This bridge is not overtopping.

The values on the right are for the internal cross-sections and not the structure.
