CALCULATION OF WATER CURRENT FORCES :-

HFL = 25.54 m
Pier Dimension = 8.40 X 0.90
Mean velocity of water current at HFL
= 2.00 m/s
Max Scour Depth = 22.28 m
Foundation lvl = 21.28 m
Pier bottom level = 22.28 m
Constant K depend upon shape of pier
Square ended = 1.5
Circular = 0.66 0.27

Water current force for normal case, water flowing at 20o

P = 52 x K X ( VMAX x COS 20 )^2

Static Effect of Cross water current in Longitidinal direction(L-L_Direction)

As per clause 210.6 of IRC:6-2010 ,for bridges with pucca floor ,the effect cross current in no case be taken as less than
that of a static force due to a difference of head of 250 mm between the opposite faces of pier
