What Will Learn?
-
Course AimsThe aim of this course is to provide students with the background necessary to: o Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the structures used at the intersection between waterways or between roads and waterways. o Identify the different types of crossing structures (bridges, culverts, syphons, aqueducts). o Propose different solutions for the crossing, compare between them, and then decide which solution is appropriate for the crossing. o Identify scour components under bridges, upstream and downstream culverts, and propose bridge scour countermeasures. o Analyze and design the different elements of the structure. o Draw and illustrate the different views of the structure
