Design of Apron & Pitching

According to IS code 8408 : 1994

Design Parameters at Athani 300 m D/S of Khoraghat gauge site

DHFL at RCC bridge Khoraghat Gauge Site 0m = 33.78 m LWL
River Gradient = 1 in 4000
So, DHFL at Chainage 300 m D/S 33.70 m
Observed HFL=33.78M and DHFL=33.67M, (33.78M>33.67M), hence consider observed HFL.
L.W.L at Chainage 300 m R/B = 28.70 m

Maximum observed velocity, v = 2.83 m/s

Average Flow depth at bank full stage, d 6.25 m
Specific gravity of sand in geobags, Ss = 1.9
According to Lacy's, the scour depth below DHFL, Ds = 1.33x(q /f)1/3
2

Where, q is discharge intensity = vxd = 17.69 m3/s/m

Mean Dia of river bed material d = 0.14 mm
Silt Factor f= 1.76*(d)1/2 = 0.66

So, scour depth below DHFL, Ds = 10.38 m

Maximum Scour Depth below DHFL, Dmax = 1.5 x Ds = 15.57 m
Max. Scour depth below LWL = Dmax-(DHFL-LWL)= 10.57 m
Width of Launching Apron, W = 1.5x Max. Scour depth belo W' = 15.85 m

Considering Bank Pitching using geo-bags of size 0.90mx0.60mx0.15m (Type-A geo-bags) in loose
Specific gravity of g-bags (wet packed with silt) = 1.9
Angle of sloping bank(2H:1V) θ = 26.57 0 0.4636
Angle of repose, Φ = 30 0 0.5236
Value of K=[1-Sin θ/ Sin Φ ]
2 2 1/2
= 0.447
Weight of geo-bags (Min. reqd) W =0.02323*Ss*V6/(K*(Ss-1)3 = 69.55 kg
Unit weight of geo-bag filled with dry sand = 126 kg
126kg >69.55kg, hence safe
The minimum thickness of bank pitching from negative head criteria 't' = v2 / [2 x g x (Ss - 1)]
Where g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m² / sec
Hence, t = 0.45 m
Adopt 3 layers of Type-A geobags for slope pitching
Therefore thickness of pitching (3 layers Type-A geobags) = 0.45 m

Thickness of launching apron T = 1.5 x thickness of pitching = 0.68 m

Adopting 6 layers of geobags for apron, hence thickness of apron = 6 x 0.15m = 0.90m

Hence length of apron =

15.85 x 0.68
m
0.9

= 11.98 m
Say = 12.00 m
Width of Launching Apron, 'W' = 12.00 m
Thickness of launching apron 'T' = 0.90 m
