    The document calculates scour depth based on flood discharge and bed characteristics. It determines the normal scour depth is 2.31 meters using the discharge per meter, silt factor, and empirical equation. The maximum scour depth is estimated at 3.5 meters, resulting in a maximum scour level 1.1 meters below the flood surface level.

    Scour Depth Calculations

    Maximum Flood Discharge Q = 27.210 Cumecs


    Bed Width 14.000 m
    FSL 2.400 m
    Discharge per meter q = 27.210
    = 1.944 m3/sec/m
    14.000
    Silt factor f = 0.75
    1/3.
    Normal scour depth R = q
    1.35
    f
    1/3.
    = 3.777
    1.35
    0.75
    = 2.31 m
    Maximum scour depth = 1.5 x R
    = 1.5 x 2.307 = 3.461 m
    Say = 3.500 m
    Maximum scour level = M.F.L. - Max. scour depth
    = 2.4 - 3.5 = -1.1
