2311 In-Stream Structures Integrity and Channel Stability Survey and Evaluation |
摘要: |
In order to reduce impacts on infrastructure within river floodplains,
particularly bridges and hydraulic structures, river control or in-stream structures are installed to
reduce the impact of peak flows from large flood events. Many of these structures were installed
over 50 years prior, but are not routinely evaluated for effectiveness and/or integrity after large
storm events, (100-500 year storms). Previously, two ODOT studies (1971 and 1989) have
compared the effectiveness of over 20 river-control and streambank-stabilization structures near
transportation infrastructure. The results of these studies provide a unique opportunity to build on
and enhance the present-day understanding of long-term effectiveness of these structures to limit
channel migration and maintain structural function. The proposed project would add to and
enhance previous studies through geomorphic surveys and in-depth analysis of the characteristics
of installed in-stream structures and stream geomorphology to inform ODOT engineers on causes
of survival or failure due to large flooding events over the long term. This information will improve
ODOT’s understanding of the effectiveness and integrity of river control structures and inform
development of standard characteristics and methods for design and installation of resilient instream structures for protection of transportation infrastructure. |
