Based on the principle of conservation of mass and the theory of momentum equilibrium, an equation for estimating the depositing length of debris flow can be derived. However, it still difficult to derive an equation for expressing the phenomena of expansion when the debris flow is flowing out the mouth of valley: In this paper, an flume experiment conducted to observe the deposition forms of debris flow in laboratory is presented. The characteristics of the deposition is also discussed. The result of the experiment showed that the expansion on the lateral side was influenced by the change of stream bed slope, the flowing velocity, and flowing materials. It will be a possible way to estimate the bore of debris flow by empirical equation, if the deposition length, width, area and the width of the valley are known. And the deposition form of debris flow is significantly influenced by the composition of grain sizes.
