A = 138.000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 2
------------------------------------------------------------

Total Area = A = 138 sq.m

Total Perimeter = P = 71.422 sq.m

Water spread at HFL between the banks

= 70 - 0
= 70.000 m

R = A / P = 138 / 71.422

Mannings Velocity = V2 = (1/n) * R**(2/3) * S**(1/2)

= (1/0.03) * 1.932^(2/3) * 0.000769^(1/2)
= 1.434 m/sec

------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 3 :
------------------------------------------------------------

Discharge at Bridge Site

Area Velocity method = A * V1
= 138 * 1.35
HYDRAULIC_CALCULATIONS_REPORT , Page No : 2
= 186.3 cu.m/sec

Manning's Velocity method = A * V2

= 138 * 1.434
= 197.892 cu.m/sec

Discharge Adopted for water way = Q = 197.892 cu.m/sec

Discharge adopted for Foundation depth

= F1 * 197.892
= 1 * 197.892
= 197.892 cu.m/sec

Lacy's with = Lw = 4.8 * Q

= 4.8 * 197.892
= 67.524 m

Water spread at H.F.L between Banks = 70.000 m

Proposed Waterway = L = 45.000 m

Discharge per metre width = Db = 197.892 / 45

= 4.398 cu.m/sec/m

Mean Scour Depth = d2 = 1.34 * ((Db*Db)/Ksb)^(1/3)

= 1.34 * ((4.398*4.398)/1.2)^(1/3)
= 3.385 m

Maximum Scour Depth adopted = D = 1.272 * d2

= 1.272 * 3.385
= 4.306 m

------------------------------------------------------------
STEP 4 :
------------------------------------------------------------

Minimum design Foundation depth = F2 * D

= 1.33 * 4.306
= 5.727 m

Minimum design Foundation Level = HFL - 5.727

= 239.9 - 5.727
= 234.173 m

Depth from LWL to minimum Foundation Level

= LWL - 234.173
= 237.14 - 234.173
= 2.967 m

Depth from LBL to minimum Foundation Level

= LBL - 234.173
= 237.14 - 234.173
= 2.967 m

Adopted depth of foundation = 3.0m
