LESSON 5
LESSON OBJECTIVES
Present overview of methods used to
estimate contraction, pier and abutment
scour
Discuss how to apply (think about) the
concepts for railroad track and bridges
Ilustrate how to evaluate the potential
for channel migration and bed
aggradation or degradation

PRIMARY MECHANISMS
OF BED DEGRADATION
Upstream dam construction
(reduction of sediment supply)
Other reductions in sediment supply
Drop in invert in downstream culvert
or bridge, then headcutting
Drop in trunk steam bed level, then
headcutting
