The total main canal is 70.6 kilometers long, the bottom of the canal is 8 meters wide, the wall of the canal is 4.3 meters high, the longitudinal slope is 1/8000, and the designed maximum flow is 23 cubic meters per second. They are all dug at the waist of Taihang Mountain, with overlapping peaks and peaks. This project is both difficult and dangerous.

A main canal divided into main canals
