Maximum Discharge of the River = 1266.00 cumecs

Liner Water way = 125.00 m

Bed level of Stream = 5.500 m

Design HFL = 15.000 m

Discharge per meter, Db = (1266 / 125)

Db = 10.128 cumec/m

Silt factor, Ksf = 2.420

Normal scour
depth, dsm = = 1.34 x ((10.128^2)/2.42)^1/3

Maximum scour depth for well Foundation = F x dsm

Where F taken as = 1.27

Maximum scour depth below HFL = 5.90 m
