• Types of Protection Works
• Erosive action of water in a watercourse resulting
in the excavation and transportation of materials
from the bed and banks
• The maximum scouring depth is a prerequisite in
the determination of the required foundation
depth and appurtenant foot protection of
structure
• Can be estimated either from actual survey and
by empirical formula
• Changes in average riverbed elevation
• River cross section (change in river width and
bend of river)
• Structures
• Sand bars
Sample of Scoured Bank Protection
Depth of water
surface to
scoured bed
Depth of
materials
removed below
normal bed level
• Floods in
particular tends
to cause
temporary scour
at narrows,
bends and
obstructions
• Method 1: Discharge-Intensity (or Regime)
Method using limited field data
• Compare computed
mean velocity with the
competent velocity in the
Figure using the
appropriate depth and as
a result of the N-blows of
the soil boring tests
• If the computed mean velocity
significantly exceeds the competent
velocity, (Vm > Vc) then general
scour is likely to occur.
Determine the Depth of Scour given the following data. Use Blench
Regime Method:
