INTRODUCTION

 Additional bridge construction which

link Kuantan City and Putra City,
Tanjung Lumpur crossing the
Kuantan River is under construction

 The presence of the new bridge piers

will effect the water flow at the
Kuantan River

 Simulation analysis using HEC-RAS

Software is used to determine the
water surface profile

PROBLEM STATEMENT

 Having a new bridge crossing

Kuantan River may gives impact to
the flow of water at the Kuantan
River

 Presence of the obstruction (piers)

increasing the water level and the
flow of water at that area

 During monsoon season, the risk of

having flood events at the Kuantan
River is high
 OBJECTIVE

 To analyze the hydrological data for the critical month using HEC-RAS
software

 To investigate the water profile due to the presence of new bridge piers

 To determine the 100 year flood level

 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

LOCATION  KUANTAN RIVER, KUANTAN

PAHANG

 HEC- HMS SOFTWARE

METHOD USED
 HEC- RAS SOFTWARE

 LOCATION PLAN
 CROSS SECTION OF KUANTAN RIVER
 BRIDGE DESIGN
DATA REQUIRED
 HYDROLOGICAL DATA INCLUDES WEKLY AND
MONTHLY READING FOR 2 YEARS STUDIES
(2016- 2018)
SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY

 The analysis of the Kuantan River

using the real rainfall events can be
used for future river construction
and urban development area

 Determination of water profile with

the presence of the bridge piers can
be used for flood mitigation in order
to prevent future flooding

AUTHOR YEAR SUMMARY
Aphu Elvis Selase 2015 • Rain water gives negative effect on the Earth which may causes natural
Danso Eunice Eyra Agyimpomaa disaster which destroys properties and at times, takes lots of lives and
David Deborah Selasi erosion
Dzameh Melody Nina Hakii
Jora Ligtenberg 2017 • Urbanization increases surface runoff where by creating more
impervious surfaces such as pavement and buildings do not allow
percolation of the water down through the soil to the aquifer
