22、charge coefficient adjustment.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The contraction of a stream channel by a bridge createsan abrupt drop in water-surface elevation between an approachsection and the contracted section under the bridge that can berelated to the discharge using the bridge as a metering device

23、.A field survey is made to determine distances between andelevations of high-water marks upstream and downstream fromthe contraction and the geometry of the bridge structure. Thesedata are used to compute the fall in the water surface betweenan approach section and the contracted section and selecte

24、dproperties of the sections. This information is used along withdischarge coefficients, determined by extensive hydraulic labo-ratory investigations and verified at field sites, in a dischargeequation to compute the discharge, Q.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is particularly useful to d

25、etermine thedischarge when it cannot be measured directly by some type ofcurrent meter to obtain velocities and with sounding weights todetermine the cross section.5.2 Even under the best conditions, the personnel availablecannot cover all points of interest during a major flood. Theengineer or tech

26、nician cannot always obtain reliable results bydirect methods if the stage is rising or falling very rapidly, ifflowing ice or debris interferes with depth or velocitymeasurements, or if the cross section of an alluvial channel isscouring or filling significantly.5.3 Under the worst conditions, acce

27、ss roads are blocked,cableways and bridges may be washed out, and knowledge ofthe flood frequently comes too late. Therefore, some type ofindirect measurement is necessary. The contracted-openingmethod is commonly used on valley-floor streams.6. Apparatus6.1 The equipment generally used for a “trans

28、it-stadia”survey is recommended. An engineers transit, a self-levelinglevel with azimuth circle, newer equipment using electroniccircuitry, or other advanced surveying instruments may beused. Standard level rods, a telescoping, 25-ft (7.62 m) levelrod, rod levels, hand levels, steel and metallic tap

29、es, tag lines(small wires with markers fixed at known spacings), vividlycolored flagging, survey stakes, a camera, and ample notepaper are necessary items.6.2 Additional equipment that may expedite a survey in-cludes axes, shovels, a portable drafting machine, a boat withoars and motor, hip boots, w

30、aders, nails, sounding equipment,two-way radios, ladder, and rope.6.3 Safety equipment should include life jackets, first aidkit, drinking water, and pocket knives.7. Sampling7.1 Sampling as defined in Terminology D1129 is notapplicable in this test method.8. Calibration8.1 The surveying instruments

31、, transit, etc., should havetheir adjustment checked, possibly daily when in continuoususe or after some occurrence that may have affected theadjustment.8.2 The standard check is the “two-peg” or“ double-peg”test. If the error is over 0.03 ft in 100 ft (0.091 m in 30.48 m),the instrument should be a

32、djusted. The two-peg test and how toadjust the instrument are described in many surveying text-books. Refer to manufacturers manual for the electronicinstruments.8.3 If the “reciprocal leveling” technique is used in thesurvey, it is the equivalent of the two-peg test between each oftwo successive hu

33、bs.8.4 Sectional and telescoping level rods should be checkedvisually at frequent intervals to be sure sections are notseparated. A proper fit at each joint can be checked bymeasurements across the joint with a steel tape.8.5 All field notes of the transit-stadia survey should bechecked before proce

34、eding with the computations.9. Procedure9.1 To obtain reliable results, the site selected should be onewhere the geometry of the bridge is close to one of the standardtypes or modified types described in Section 11. If a desirablesite cannot be found, other methods, such as the slope-areamethod, may

35、 yield better results.9.1.1 The channel under the bridge should be relativelystable. Because the amount of scour at the time of the peakflow cannot be determined, do not use this test method atcontractions on sand channels. Avoid contractions where largescour holes have formed because the coefficien

36、ts presentedherein do not apply.9.1.2 The fall, h, is the difference in the computed watersurface elevation, between Sections 1 and 3, and is not to beless than 0.5 ft (0.15 m). It is defined by high-water marks.9.1.3 The fall should be at least four times the friction lossbetween Sections 1 and 3.

37、Therefore, avoid long bridgesdownstream from heavily wooded flood plains.9.2 The approach section, Section 1, is a cross section of thenatural, unconstricted channel upstream from the beginning ofdrawdown. Locate Section 1 one bridge-opening width, b,upstream from the contraction to be sure it is up

38、stream from thedrawdown zone. For a completely eccentric contraction, onewith no contraction on one bank, locate Section 1 twobridge-opening widths upstream because such a contraction isconsidered as half a normal contraction. Section 1 includes theentire width of the valley perpendicular to the dir

39、ection of flow.9.2.1 When water-surface profiles are level for some dis-tance along the embankment or upstream from the contraction,ponded approach conditions may exist. Even so, survey anapproach section because under some conditions, the approachvelocity head just balances the friction loss.D5129

40、95 (2014)149.3 The contracted section, Section 3, is the minimum areaon a line parallel to the contraction. Generally, the section isbetween the abutments. When abutments of a skewed bridgeare parallel to the flow, Section 3 is still surveyed parallel to thecontraction even though the minimum sectio

41、n is actuallyperpendicular to the abutments. An angularity factor (see13.3.1) adjusts the surveyed section to the minimum section.9.3.1 The area, A3, is always the gross area of the sectionbelow the level of the free water surface. No deductions aremade for areas occupied by piles, piers, or submerg

42、ed parts ofthe bridge if they lie in the plane of the contracted section.9.3.2 The mean velocity, V3, is computed using the grossarea, A3.9.3.3 The conveyance, K3, is computed with the area ofpiles, piers, or submerged parts deducted from the gross area.9.3.4 The wetted perimeter used to compute the

43、 hydraulicradius, R, will include the lengths of the sides of the piles,piers, or bridge surfaces in contact with the water.9.4 Water-surface levels for Sections 1 and 3 must bedetermined as described below; otherwise, the discharge coef-ficients will not be applicable.9.4.1 At Section 1, develop a

44、profile on each bank near theends of the section from high-water marks in the vicinity. Ifthere are not marks in these areas and a large degree ofcontraction exists, draw a profile of marks along the upstreamface of the embankment. If this profile is level for much of thedistance along the embankmen

45、t, assume this elevation is thesame as that of Section 1.9.4.2 For Section 3, obtain water-surface elevations alongthe downstream side of the embankment adjacent to theabutments regardless of the location of Section 3.9.4.3 Compute water-surface elevations at Sections 1 and 3as the average of the el

46、evations on each bank.9.4.4 The one exception is an opening with a high degree ofeccentricity. In this area, determine the elevation of Section 3from marks on the contracted side only and use this elevationto compute both the area of Section 3 and fall between Sections1 and 3.9.5 Complete details of

47、 the bridge geometry should beobtained so that both plan and elevation drawings can be made.Determine wingwall angles and lengths, lengths of abutments,position and slopes of the embankments and abutments,elevation of roadway, top width of embankment, details ofpiers or piles, and elevations of the

48、bottom of girders or beamsspanning the contraction. Use a steel tape for most linealmeasurements rather than scaling distances from a plan.Pictures of the upstream corners of both abutments should betaken. Note which of the four types of contractions theconstriction is.10. Basic Computations10.1 The

49、 drop in water-surface level between an upstreamsection and a contracted section is related to the correspondingchange in velocity. The discharge equation results from writingthe energy and continuity equations for the reach between thesetwo sections, designated as Sections 1 and 3 in Fig. 1.Q 5 CA32g Sh11V122g2 hfD(1)where:Q = discharge,C = coefficient of discharge,A3= gross area of Section 3, this is the minimum sectionbetween the abutments and is not necessarily at thedownstream side of the bridge,h = difference in elevation of the water surfac
