Book Description
Efficient removal of stormwater runoff from bridge deck surfaces is an important safety issue. This study investigates hydraulic performance characteristics of a new type of rectangular bridge deck drain. A physical modeling study was conducted to evaluate the hydraulic performance of the innovative rectangular bridge deck drain as a function of the approach discharge, different drain configurations, and bridge characteristics. Experiments included different numbers of open drains in series for variable approach discharge cross slope and longitudinal slope. Measurements included gutter flow depth (Y) and ponding width (T) at different stations along the deck, and the capture discharge and bypass discharge. A model equation is presented for predicting the capture discharge as a function of drain size (L+W), the number of open drains (N), Manning's coefficient (n), depth of approached gutter flow (Y), longitudinal slope (S0), and cross slope (Sx). For experiments considering one through five drains in series (1-5 drains), the rating curve for each individual drain is the same when the drain size is 4 by 8 inches; however, the rating curve decreases slightly with successive drains when the drain size is 6 by 8 inches.

Book Description
Now includes Worked Examples for lectutrers in a companion pdf! The fourth edition of this volume presents design principles and practical guidance for key hydraulic structures. Fully revised and updated, this new edition contains enhanced texts and sections on: environmental issues and the World Commission on Dams partially saturated soils, small amenity dams, tailing dams, upstream dam face protection and the rehabilitation of embankment dams RCC dams and the upgrading of masonry and concrete dams flow over stepped spillways and scour in plunge pools cavitation, aeration and vibration of gates risk analysis and contingency planning in dam safety small hydroelectric power development and tidal and wave power wave statistics, pipeline stability, wave–structure interaction and coastal modelling computational models in hydraulic engineering. The book's key topics are explored in two parts - dam engineering and other hydraulic structures – and the text concludes with a chapter on models in hydraulic engineering. Worked numerical examples supplement the main text and extensive lists of references conclude each chapter. Hydraulic Structures provides advanced students with a solid foundation in the subject and is a useful reference source for researchers, designers and other professionals.

Book Description
Paper 1: This research study of spur dikes was conducted to determine the value of spur dikes as protection for bridge abutments and to determine the relationships between the various geometric parameters. Paper 2: Bent-up ends have been experienced on three large structural plate culverts installed with the upstream ends square and projecting to the fill toe. Installations and failures are described and one explanation of the cause is presented. Paper 3: The problem of erosion control at culvert outlets depends on dissipation of kinetic energy in the horizontal direction, vertical direction, or combination of both directions.
