Cross Drainage
Structure built over the roads, railways and rivers
• Culverts ‐ shorter span < 6 m
• Bridges ‐ high‐level crossing structures which can beexpensive for large rivers. It is therefore essential to protectthem even from rare floods.

W e l e a dHydraulic Issues in Bridge Design
The presence of a bridge across a stream createsconstricted flow through its openings because of
(a) the reduction in the width of the stream due topiers and their associated end contractions and
(b) the fluming of the stream itself (in the case ofwide streams with flood plains) to reduce the costsof the structure
W e l e a dHydraulic Issues in Bridge Design
• Local scour around the piers and bridge abutmentsand possible bed erosion
• A considerable backwater effect of the bridge. Thecorresponding afflux (rise in upstream water level)depends on the type of flow (subcritical orsupercritical).
• As most bridges are designed for subcritical flowconditions in order to minimize scour and chokingproblems, further discussions here are mainlyconfined to subcritical flow.
W e l e a dHydraulic Issues in Bridge Design
The establishment of afflux levels is extremelyimportant for the design of upstream dykes and otherprotective works and also for the location of safe bridgedeck levels (to avoid the flooding of the deck and anyconsequent structural damage).
It is equally important to determine the minimum clearlength of span (economic considerations) which willnot cause undesirable afflux levels.

Recommended Freeboard for Road Crossing Design (REAM, 2004)
W e l e a dGuidelines
All bridges and crossings shall bedesigned to allow for the design flow.
The minimum freeboard (clearance) atthe design flow level shall be 0.3 m.Where floating logs are expected, thisminimum clearance shall be 1 m.
There shall be no piers or (vertical wall of culverts) in the middle of the river cross‐section.
For multiple box culverts, twin box culverts should be avoided and instead to use triple box culvert with the centre box in line with the mid‐flow section of the river or channel.
Department of Irrigation and Drainage, Malaysia (2009)
W e l e a d
Guidelines
Banks stability analysis should be made. All bridges shall be studied for scour effects.
Bridge soffit should be at least 1 meter higher than flood level (100‐year ARI). Abutment walls shall be constructed at least 2 metres from the edge. Pile caps shall be constructed with a minimum depth of 1.5 meters below the
ground level.

General Scour‐ aggradations or degradations of the riverbed not related to the pressure of local obstacles
Contraction Scour‐ involves removal of material from bed and bank across most of the channel width

3. SCOUR PROTECTION WORKS AROUND BRIDGE PIERS
• Pier shape‐shape nose, cylinder
• Normal practice‐provide thick protective layers of stone or concrete apron around the piers‐Riprap protection (Bonasoundas, 1973)
Riprap
D = 0.06 – 0.033U + 0.04U2 D = thickness of riprap (m)Uc= 6d1/3y01/6 U= mean velocity (m/s)
or for horizontal bed Uc= mean critical velocityUc = 4.29d1/2 d = armour stone size (m)
‐The riprap should be placed on a suitable inverted filter or a geotextile fabric (Figure 9.8)
