| Abstrait: | Bridge construction requires careful planning and in-depth study as no undue risk should be taken in its design and construction. Hydraulic consideration in the bridge design comprises several aspects such as selection of site, determination of waterway, assessment of scour for design of foundation of piers and abutments, design of guide banks, approach banks, protection works, etc. Undermining of the piers due to excessive scour could become a potential cause for bridge failure. Mechanism of scour around bridge pier, factors affecting scour, estimation of depth and extent of scour, scour protection measures and some case studies conducted in this regard in Central Water and Power Research Station (CWPRS), Pune, have been discussed in this paper. |
