Hydrological and Hydraulic Analysis of Bridge at Km 499+053

Cross Section followed for bridge Point 30 m of Survey data


Deepest Bed Level 3.5 m
Silt factor assumed 3.2
Clear Waterway available between abutments 14.0 m
Top Level of Deck 10.35 m GTS
Max Depth of Superstructure 1.2 m
Lowest Level of Superstructure 9.15 m GTS

Discharge Calculation
Catchment Area = 23.6 Sq. Km
Discharge by Rational Formula (Q100) = 103 Cumec
Discharge by Ryve's Formula= 56 Cumec
Discharge by Dicken's Formula= 118 Cumec
Observed discharge NIL Cumec

Adopted Discharge
For Fixing Effective Clear Waterway normal to flow 118 Cumec
For Fixing HFL 118 Cumec
For Estimation of Scour 153 Cumec

Waterway
Clear Waterway Provided 14.0 m

Summary of Calculation for Proposed Bridge


Afflux (h) for Q100 0.734 m
Velocity under Bridge for Q100 3.55 m/sec
HFL with afflux for Q100 5.660 m
Highest Tide Level 5.390 m
Adopted HFL 5.660 m

Scour Calculation
Q for Scour (1.3*Q100)= 153.12 Cumec
Silt Factor= 3.2 Assumed
Clear Waterway (m) = 14
Unit Discharge (Db), (Cumec per m) = 10.94
Normal Scour (m, below HFL) = 4.48
Maximum Scour under Pier (m, below HFL) = 8.96
Maximum Scour under Abutment (m, below HFL) = 5.690
RL (m) of HFL = 5.660
RL (m) of scoured Bed below Pier = -3.300
RL (m) of scoured Bed below Abutment = -0.029

Observations
As per the hydraulic calculation the velocity and scour of 100 yr flood of 118 cumec are within
the limit to pass through the proposed waterway.
Recommendation
Retain the existing structure subject to structural adequacy.
