Book Sizing Riprap for the Protection of Approach Embankments   Spur Dikes and Limiting the Depth of Scour at Bridge Piers   Abutments

Download or read book Sizing Riprap for the Protection of Approach Embankments Spur Dikes and Limiting the Depth of Scour at Bridge Piers Abutments written by Ruh-Ming Li and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a review of published literature on riprap design technology and examines Arizona case histories of riprap performance. The literature review grouped the factors affecting riprap design into hierarchical categories relative to scale. The four factors identified include: riprap properties, site characteristics, hydraulic and sediment transport conditions, and river response. Eleven case histories from documentation supplied by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (SCS) are examined. The review of Arizona case histories is intended to provide the basis for understanding the dominant river processes associated with riprap protection measures. The literature review and case histories indicate a set of design requirements to be considered when designing riprap revetment. Volume II presents the design procedure.

Book Countermeasures to Protect Bridge Piers from Scour

Download or read book Countermeasures to Protect Bridge Piers from Scour written by Peter Frederick Lagasse and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2007 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores practical selection criteria for bridge-pier scour countermeasures; guidelines and specifications for the design and construction of those countermeasures; and guidelines for their inspection, maintenance, and performance evaluation. Produced along with the report is an interactive version of the countermeasure selection methodology, which defines the proper conditions for the use of each specific countermeasure, and a reference document that contains detailed laboratory testing results and translations of three German "Code of Practice" documents.

Book Stream Stability and Scour at Highway Bridges

Download or read book Stream Stability and Scour at Highway Bridges written by Everett V. Richardson and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 1076 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sponsored by the Water Resources Engineering (Hydraulics) Divsion of ASCE. This collection contains 75 papers and 321 abstracts presented at conferences sponsored by the Water Resources Engineering (Hydraulics) Division of ASCE from 1991 through 1998. The collection contains many new and expanded versions of the original papers and is designed to assist the practitioner with the concepts in evaluating stream instability and scour at bridges. Topics include: history of bridge scour research; bridge scour determination; stream stability and geomorphology; construction scour; instrumentation for measuring and monitoring; field measurement; computer and physical modeling of bridge scour; scour at culverts; and economic and risk analysis. One important paper contains 384 field measurements of local scour at piers made by the U.S. Geological Survey.

Book Bridge Hydraulics

Download or read book Bridge Hydraulics written by Dr Les Hamill and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1998-12-03 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design of bridges across rivers and streams is a major component of many civil engineering projects. The size of waterways must be kept reasonably small for reasons of economy and yet be large enough to allow floods to pass. Bridge Hydraulics is the first book to consider both arched and rectangular waterway openings in detail and to describe all of the main methods of analysis. With clear examples and relevant case studies, using both laboratory models and full- size bridges in the field, it is not only a thorough and accessible introduction to bridge hydraulics, but also a guide that will enable engineers to produce authoritative analyses and more effective designs.

Book excerpt: Proceedings of the National Conference on Hydraulic Engineering held in San Francisco, California, July 25-30, 1993. This collection contains 400 papers discussing the reduction of humanmade and natural disasters through hydraulic engineering. Topics include: disaster and hazard reduction; wetland and tidal hydraulics; mechanics of debris flows; sediment transport; bridge scour; three-dimensional flow modeling; computational hydraulics; California water issues; and probabilistic approaches to hydraulics. Engineers who are involved with these hydraulic engineering issues will find this proceedings an excellent source of information.

Book Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures

Download or read book Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures written by U. S. Department of Transportation and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this document is to identify and provide design guidelines for bridge scour and stream instability countermeasures that have been implemented by various State departments of transportation (DOTs) in the United States. Countermeasure experience, selection, and design guidance are consolidated from other FHWA publications in this document to support a comprehensive analysis of scour and stream instability problems and provide a range of solutions to those problems. The results of recently completed National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) projects are incorporated in the design guidance, including: countermeasures to protect bridge piers and abutments from scour; riprap design criteria, specifications, and quality control, and environmentally sensitive channel and bank protection measures. Selected innovative countermeasure concepts and guidance derived from practice outside the United States are introduced. In addition, guidance for the preparation of Plans of Action ...
