Author: Evaluation and Assessment of Environmentally Sensitive Stream Bank Protection Measures
Author: Peter Frederick LagassePublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Riparian areas
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
"TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 822: Evaluation and Assessment of Environmentally Sensitive Stream Bank Protection Measures evaluates and assesses existing guidelines for the design, installation, monitoring, and maintenance of environmentally sensitive stream bank stabilization and protection measures, and develops quantitative engineering design guidance for selected treatments. Updated design guidelines for three widely used treatments are presented: live siltation and live staking with a rock toe, vegetated mechanically stabilized earth, and vegetated rip rap. A compendium of field data, documentation, and photographs complement the report. The compendium is available as a DVD and available for download from TRB’s website as an ISO image."--Publisher’s description.

Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures
Author: U. S. Department of TransportationPublisher:
ISBN: 9781329651029
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
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 ...
River Hydraulics

ISBN: 9781410218698
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
This manual presents the techniques and procedures that are used to investigate and resolve river engineering and analysis issues and the associated data requirements. It also provides guidance for the selection of appropriate methods to be used for planning and conducting the studies. Documented herein are past experiences that provide valuable information for detecting and avoiding problems in planning, performing, and reporting future studies. The resolution of river hydraulics issues always requires prediction of one or more flow parameters; be it stage (i.e., water surface elevation), velocity, or rate of sediment transport. This manual presents pragmatic methods for obtaining data and performing the necessary computations; it also provides guidance for determining the components of various types of studies.
Countermeasures to Protect Bridge Abutments from Scour
Author: Brian D. BarkdollPublisher: Transportation Research Board
ISBN: 0309098955
Category : Bridges
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
Examines selection criteria and guidelines for the design and construction of countermeasures to protect bridge abutments and approach embankments from scour damage. The report explores two common forms of bridge abutments--wing-wall (vertical face with angled walls into the bank) and spill-through (angled face).
