Bridges are constructed across the river to create way from one end to another end. The purpose of this study is to carry out hydrological analysis of the rivers, streams and flood paths which intersect with the proposed bridge, to estimate their different return floods magnitudes in order to size the openings of the proposed bridges. During the study the following tasks have been carried out analysis and interpretation of different topographic maps, soils map, satellite imagery and DEM (Digital Elevation Model) data collection of data and analysis for un-gauged rivers and streams, estimation of flood magnitudes by applying different rainfall-runoff models, Sizing of bridges, Provide designs type, size, and location of bridge Assess scour potential at bridge locations. The flood magnitudes at the bridge site are the function of geomorphology, geology, rainfall; soil and land use or land cover within the catchments of the rivers and streams crossing the road.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
