Bridge Scour by HEC-RAS Model: A Case Study over Ganga Bridge
Abstract: Lacey’s equation is often used to find out the scour depth in rivers in India. Lacey’s regime formula (1930) was developed on the basis of limited field data from irrigation canals in Punjab Province having discharge ranges from 0.70 to 173 m3/s. The total scour at a highway crossing is comprised of three mechanisms: long-term aggradation-degradation, contraction of reach, and local scours at piers and abutments. In the present study, …
