Evaluation of Bridge-Scour Research: Abutment and Contraction Scour Processes and Prediction
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 181: Evaluation of Bridge-Scour Research: Abutment and Contraction Scour Processes and Prediction examines bridge-abutment scour and the effectiveness of the leading methods used for estimating design scour depth.
In September 2012 TRB released
NCHRP Research Results Digest 378: Evaluation of Bridge Scour Research, which summarizes key finding of NCHRP Web-Only Document 181 along with two other NCHRP projects that explored processes and predictions related to pier scour, abutment and contraction scour, and geomorphic scour.
