Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures by U. S. Department of Transportation Pdf

The purpose of this document is to identify and provide design guidelines for bridge scour and stream instability countermeasures that have been implemented by various State departments of transportation (DOTs) in the United States. Countermeasure experience, selection, and design guidance are consolidated from other FHWA publications in this document to support a comprehensive analysis of scour and stream instability problems and provide a range of solutions to those problems. The results of recently completed National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) projects are incorporated in the design guidance, including: countermeasures to protect bridge piers and abutments from scour; riprap design criteria, specifications, and quality control, and environmentally sensitive channel and bank protection measures. Selected innovative countermeasure concepts and guidance derived from practice outside the United States are introduced. In addition, guidance for the preparation of Plans of Action ...

Stream Instability, Bridge Scour, and Countermeasures: A Field Guide for Bridge Inspectors by Transportation Dept., Federal Highway Administration Pdf

FHWA Publication No. FHWA-NHI-08-0106. February 2009. Explains the behavior of rivers in order to recognize changing conditions associated with unstable streams or scour at bridge foundations that may threaten the stability of the bridge. Provides tips and guidance on what to look for with regard to both stream instability, including lateral instability, degradation, and aggradation, and scour at bridges, including contraction scour, pier scour, and abutment scour. Also covered are plans of action and countermeasures, such as monitoring, flood watches, bridge closures, and river training countermeasures.
