Water Current Force Calculation

Maximum Mean Velocity of the water current (U) = 4.500 m/s

Maximum Velocity at the free surface of the river = 6.364 m/s
Angle of inclination of the pier and waterflow = 0
Variation of Angle of flow = 20

Flow component transverse to the direction of the pier = 2.177 m/sec

Pier Co-efficient = 0.660

HFL of Water surface = 30.360

R.L. of Top of Well = 23.000
Thickness of Well Cap = 2.500 m
R.L. of bottom of pier / top of well cap = 25.500
Height of pier submerged in water = 4.860 m

Top of Well Cap = 25.500 m

R.L. of Existing Ground Level = 20.518
Scour Depth from EGL = 8.920 m
Deepest Scour Level = 11.598
Depth of the Well submerged in water = 13.902 m

Forces on pier

Water current pressure at the top of the surface = 1.595 kN/m2

Water velocity at bottom of the pier = 5.478 m/sec
Water current pressure at the bottom of the surface = 1.182 kN/m2
Width of the pier transverse to the direction of water current = 11.500 m
Total Force acting on the pier = 77.601 kN

Force of action from the base of the system = 16.453 m

Forces on Well

Water current pressure at the top of the well = 1.182 kN/m2

Water current pressure at the bottom of the well = 0 kN/m2
Diameter of the Well = 12.00 m
Total Force acting on the well = 98.583 kN

Force action from base of the system = 9.268 m

Net Force Calculation for the pier-well system from the base

Total Force acting on the system = 176.184 kN

Point of application of Force from the base of well = 12.432 m
