If the depth of the scour becomes significant, the stability of the foundations may be endangered, with a consequent risk of damage or failure of the structure. There have been several bridge failures, resulting in transport disruption, economic loss and, on occasion, loss of life. The factors influencing scour are complex and vary according to the type of structure. Protection for preventing scour needs to be designed to withstand the flow forces imposed on them and have to be practical to build and install, while minimizing adverse environmental effects. This book covers the entire Scour Technology area and is prepared by one of the leading experts on the subject. INSIGHTFUL SOLUTION OF PRACTICAL SCOUR PROBLEMS Prepared by one of the world's foremost experts in scour, this text provides the information engineers need to make and justify decisions to protect infrastructure against the effects of scour. Scour Technology steers away from the empiricism that has prevented engineers from developing the necessary understanding to make justifiable and defensible design decisions. George W. Annandale's unique approach to analyzing scour from a cause-and-effect point of view has stimulated research at leading institutions. These practical methods allow analysis of scour in any kind of earth or engineered earth material, including materials such as vegetated soils, rock, and concrete. Dr. Annandale's methods are used internationally by practicing engineers to analyze and solve scour problems at bridges subject to flowing water, at dams subject to overtopping, in spillway chutes and energy dissipaters, and in plunge pools and water-bearing tunnels, and to develop engineering specifications for vegetated erosion protection of soils subject to the scour effects of flowing water Technology Scour--Practice D.Wre
