1 Estimating Scour CIVE 510 October 21 st,
2 Causes of Scour 2
3 Site Stability 3
4 Mass Failure Downward movement of large and intact masses of soil and rock Occurs when weight on slope exceeds the shear strength of bank material Typically a result of water saturating a slide-prone slope Rapid draw down Flood stage manipulation Tidal effects Seepage 4
5 Mass Failure Rotational Slide Concave failure plane, typically on slopes ranging from degrees 5
6 Translational Slide Mass Failure Shallower slide, typically along well-defined plane 6
7 Site Stability 7
8 Toe Erosion Occurs when particles are removed from the bed/bank whereby undermining the channel toe Results in gravity collapse or sliding of layers Typically a result of: Reduced vegetative bank structure Smoothed channels, i.e., roughness removed Flow through a bend 8
9 Toe Erosion 9
10 Toe Erosion 10
11 Site Stability 11
12 Avulsion and Chute Cutoffs Abrupt change in channel alignment resulting in a new channel within the floodplain Typically caused by: Concentrated overland flow Headcutting and/or scouring within floodplain Manmade disturbances Chute cutoff smaller scale than avulsion 12
13 Avulsion and Chute Cutoffs 13
14 Site Stability 14
15 Subsurface Entrainment Piping occurs when subsurface flow transports soil particles resulting in the development of a tunnel. Tunnels reduce soil cohesion causing slippage and ultimately streambank erosion. Typically caused by: Groundwater seepage Water level changes 15
16 Subsurface Entrainment 16
17 Groundwater table Normal water level Seepage flow Normal (baseflow( baseflow) ) conditions
18 Flood water level Seepage flow During flood peak
19 Area of high seepage gradients and uplift pressure Seepage flow Normal water level After flood recession
20 Site Stability 20
21 Scour Erosion at a specific location that is greater than erosion found at other nearby locations of the stream bed or bank. Simons and Sentruk (1992) 21
22 Scour Scour depths needed for: Revetment design Drop structures Highway structures Foundation design Anchoring systems Habitat enhancement 22
23 Scour Equations All empirical relationships Specific to scour type Designed for and with sand-bed systems May distinguish between live-bed and clear-water conditions Modifications for gravel-bed systems 23
24 Calculating Scour Identify type(s) of expected scour Calculate depth for each type Account for cumulative effect Compare to any know conditions 24
25 5 Types of Scour Bend scour Constriction scour Drop/weir scour Jet scour Local scour 25
26 Bend Scour 26
27 Bend Scour Caused by secondary currents Material removed from toe Field observations can be helpful in assessing magnitude Conservative first estimate: Equal to the flow depth upstream of bend Three empirical relationships 27
28 Bend Scour Three methods Thorne (1997) Flume and river experiments D 50 bed from 0.3 to 63 mm Applicable to gravel bed systems Maynord (1996) Used for sand-bed channels Provides conservative estimate for gravel-bed systems Wattanabe (Maynord 1996) Ditto 28
29 Thorne Equation d 1.07 log R c = 2 y W 1 Where d = maximum depth of scour (L) y 1 = average flow depth directly upstream of the bend (L) W = width of flow (L) R c = radius of curvature (L) R c 2< < 22 W 29
30 Maynord Equation D R W mb = c D W D u u Where D mb = maximum water depth in bend (L) D u = mean channel depth at upstream crossing (L) W = width of flow at upstream end of bend (L) R c = radius of curvature (L) R c W < < 1.5 < < W Du 30
31 Maynord Equation D R W mb = c D W D u u Notes: Developed from measured data on 215 sand bed channels Flow events between 1 and 5 year return intervals Not valid for overbank flows that exceed 20 percent of channel depth Equation is a best fit, not an envelope NO FOS Factor of safety of 1.08 is recommended English or metric units Width is that of active flow 31
32 Wattanabe Equation d s D W = α + β Rc Where d s = scour depth below maximum depth in bend (L) W = channel top width (L) R c = radius of curvature (L) D = mean channel depth (L) S = bed slope (L/L) f = Darcy friction factor α = X X X WS = log 10 D 2 β = π x f 1 x = f 1.42 sinσ + cosσ f σ tan = 1.5 f 1.42 f 32
33 Wattanabe Equation d s D α β W = + Rc Notes: Results correlated will with Mississippi River data Limits of application are unknown FOS of 1.2 is recommended English or metric units may be used 33
34 5 Types of Scour Bend scour Constriction scour Drop/weir scour Jet scour Local scour 34
35 Constriction Scour 35
36 Constriction Scour Occurs when channel features created a narrowing of the channel Typically, constriction is harder than the channel banks or bed Caused from natural and/or engineered features Large woody debris Bridge crossings Bedrock Flow training structures Tree roots/established vegetation 36
37 Constriction Scour Scour equations Developed from flume tests of bridge abutments Equations can be applied for natural or other induced constrictions Most accepted methods: Laursen live-bed equation (1980) Laursen clear-water equation (1980) 37
38 Constriction Scour Live-bed conditions Coarse sediments may armor the bed Compare with clear-water depth and use lower value Requires good judgment! Equation developed for sand-bed streams Application to gravel bed: Provides conservative estimate of scour depth 38
39 Laursen Live-Bed Equation y 2 Q 2 W 1 = y1 Q1 W2 d = y y A Where d = average depth of constriction scour (L) y 0 = average depth of flow in constricted reach without scour (L) y 1 = average depth of flow in upstream main channel (L) y 2 = average depth of flow in constricted reach after scour (L) Q 2 = flow in constricted section (L 3 /T) Q 1 = flow in upstream channel (L 3 /T) W 1 = bottom width in approach channel (L) W 2 = bottom width in constricted section (L) A = regression exponent 39
40 Laursen Live-Bed Equation y 2 Q 2 W 1 = y1 Q1 W2 d = y y A ω = fall velocity of D50 bed material (L/T) U* = shear velocity (L/T) = (gy 1 S e ) 0.5 g = acceleration due to gravity (L/T 2 ) S e = EGL slope in main channel (L/L) U*/ω < 0.5 A 0.59 Mode of bed Transport Bed 0.5 to Suspended > Suspended 40
41 Laursen Live-Bed Equation 41
42 Laursen Live-Bed Equation y 2 Q 2 W 1 = y1 Q1 W2 d = y y A Notes: Assumes all flow passes through constricted reach Coarse sediment may limit live-bed scour If bed is armored, compare with at clearwater scour Both English and metric units can be used 42
43 Laursen Clear-Water Equation Where 2 Q 2 y2 = CDm W2 d = y y d = average depth of constriction scour (L) y 0 = average depth of flow in constricted reach without scour (L) y 2 = average depth of flow in constricted reach after scour (L) Q 2 = flow in constricted section (L 3 /T) D m = 1.25D50 = assumed diameter of smallest non-transportable particle in bed material in constricted reach (L) W 2 = bottom width in constricted section (L) C = unit constant; 120 for English, 40 for metric 43
44 Laursen Clear-Water Equation Notes: y Q CD 0.67 W 2 m 2 = d = y y Only uses flow through constricted section If constriction has an overbank, separate computation made for the channel and each overbank Can be used for gravel bed systems Armoring analysis or movement by size fraction 44
45 5 Types of Scour Bend scour Constriction scour Drop/weir scour Jet scour Local scour 17 OCT address mistake on equation two slides ago 45
46 Drop/Weir Scour 46
47 Drop/Weir Scour Result of roller formed by cascading flow Caused from Perched culverts Culverts under pressure flow Spillway exits Natural drops in high-gradient mountain streams 47
48 Drop/Weir Scour Two methods U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Equation Vertical Drop Structure (1995) Used for scour estimation immediately downstream of a vertical drop Provides conservative estimate for sloping sills Laursen and Flick (1983) Sloping sills of rock or natural material 48
49 USBR Vertical Drop Equation = s t m d KH q d Where d s = scour depth immediately downstream of drop (m) q = unit discharge (m 3 /s/m) H t = total drop in head, measured from the upstream to downstream energy grade line (m) d m = tailwater depth immediately downstream of scour hole (m) K = regression constant of
50 USBR Vertical Drop Equation = s t m d KH q d Notes: Calculated scour depth is independent of bed-material grain size If large material is present, it may take decades for scour to reach final depth Must use metric units 50
51 Laursen and Flick Equation y R d = 4 3 y d c 50 s c m D50 yc Where d s = scour depth immediately downstream of drop (L) y c = critical flow depth (L) D 50 = median grain size of bed material (L) R 50 = median grain size of sloping sill (L) d m = tailwater depth immediately downstream of scour hole (L) 51
52 Laursen and Flick Equation y R d = 4 3 y d c 50 s c m D50 yc Notes Developed specifically for sloping sills constructed of rock Non-Conservative for other applications Can use English or metric units 52
