26、od4.1 The slope-area method is used to indirectly determinethe discharge through a reach of channel, usually after a flood,FIG. 1 Definition Sketch of a Slope-Area ReachD5130 95 (2014)2using evidence left by the event and the physical characteristicsof the channel reach. A field survey is made to de

27、terminedistances between and elevations of high-water marks and todefine cross sections of the stream. These data are used tocompute the fall in the water surface between sections andselected properties of the sections. This information is usedalong with Mannings n in the Manning equation to compute

28、the discharge, Q. The Manning equation in terms of discharge,Q, is as follows:Q 51.486nAR2/3Sfor Q 5 KSfThe symbols on the right sides of the equations are definedin Section 3.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is particularly useful for determiningthe discharge when it cannot be measured d

29、irectly by sometype of current meter to obtain velocities and with soundingweights to determine the cross section.5.2 Even under optimum conditions, the personnel availablecannot cover all points of interest during a major flood. Fieldpersonnel cannot always obtain reliable results by directmethods

30、if the stage is rising or falling very rapidly, if flowingice or debris interferes with depth or velocity measurements.5.3 Under the worst conditions, access roads are blocked,cableways and bridges may be washed out, and knowledge ofthe flood frequently comes too late to obtain direct measure-ments

31、of flow. Therefore, some type of indirect measurement isnecessary. The slope-area method is a commonly used method.6. Apparatus6.1 The equipment generally used for a “transit-stadia”survey is recommended. An engineers transit, a self-levelinglevel with azimuth circle, newer equipment using electroni

32、ccircuitry, or other advanced surveying instruments may beused. Standard level rods, a telescoping, 25-ft (7.6 m) level rod,rod levels, hand levels, steel and metallic tapes, tag lines (smallwires with markers fixed at known spacings), vividly coloredflagging, survey stakes, a camera (preferably ste

33、reo) with colorfilm, light meter, and ample note paper are necessary items.6.2 Additional equipment that may expedite a survey in-clude axes, shovels, a portable drafting machine, a boat withoars and motor, hip boots, waders, rain gear, nails, soundingequipment, two-way radios, ladder, and rope.6.3

34、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, levels and transits, etc.,should have their adjustment checked befor

35、e each use andpossibly daily when in continuous use or after some occurrencethat may have affected the adjustment.8.2 The standard check is the “two-peg” or“ double-peg”test. If the error is over 0.03 ft in 100 ft (0.9 cm in 30.5 m), theinstrument should be adjusted. The two-peg test and how toadjus

36、t the instrument are described in many surveying text-books and in instructions provided by the manufacturer. Referto manufacturers manual for the electronic instruments.8.3 If the “reciprocal leveling” technique is used in thesurvey, it is the equivalent of the two-peg test between each ofthe two s

37、uccessive hubs.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 quickly checked bymeasurements across the joint with a steel tape.8.5 All field notes of the transit-stadia survey should be

38、checked before proceeding with the computations.9. Procedure9.1 Selection of a reach of channel is the first and probablythe most important step to obtain reliable results. Ideal reachesrarely exist; so the various elements in a reach must beevaluated and compromises made so that the best reachavail

39、able is selected (3). Selection soon after the flood event isrecommended because livestock, humans, heavy rain, and banksloughing can destroy high-water marks.9.1.1 Good high-water marks are essential for good results.At times a reach with poor quality marks must be used becauseof other complicating

40、 factors such as inflow, proximity to agaging station, etc. List high-water marks in a format such asshown in Fig. 2.9.1.2 The nearer the reach to a uniform channel the better.Marked changes in channel shape should be avoided becauseof uncertainties regarding the value of the expansion/contraction l

41、oss coefficient (k) and the friction losses in thereach. Changes in channel conveyance should be fairly uni-form from section to section to be consistent with the assump-tion that the mean conveyance is equal to the geometric meanof the conveyances at the end sections.9.1.3 A reach with flow confine

42、d to a roughly trapezoidalchannel is desirable because roughness coefficients have beendetermined for such shapes. However, compound channels,those with overbank flow, for example, can be used if they areproperly subdivided into subareas that are approximatelytrapezoidal.9.1.4 A straight reach that

43、contracts is preferred, but bothconditions seldom exist in the same reach. Whether or not areach is contracting or expanding depends solely upon thedifference in velocity head (hv) between sections. The reachis contracting if the difference in the velocity head is negative.The reach is expanding if

44、the velocity-head difference ispositive.9.1.5 Cross sections are assumed to be carrying water inaccordance with the conveyance for each part of the section.Therefore, the channel for some distance upstream should besimilar to that of the reach. Then the discharge will bedistributed in relation to de

45、pths, roughness, and shape. If theupstream section is located too close to a sharp bend, a bridgethat constricts the width, or a natural constriction, slack water,D5130 95 (2014)3or even an eddy may occupy part of the section; and the sectionwill not be effective in carrying water downstream in prop

46、or-tion to the computed conveyance.9.1.6 Channels in mountainous areas may be very rough andsteep and may have free fall over riffles and boulders. TheManning equation is not applicable when free fall exists.However, free fall may or may not be indicated by thehigh-water profiles or by inspection of

47、 the reach. Crosssections can be located to eliminate any part of a reach inwhich free fall is indicated. If the reach includes stretches inwhich free fall might have occurred, the computed dischargesare not reliable.9.1.7 The reach should be long enough to develop a fall thatis well beyond the rang

48、e of error in the surveying method, inalternative interpretations of the high-water profile, or inuncertainties related to the computation of the velocity head.One suggested criteria is that the fall in the reach should be 0.5ft (0.15 m) or greater than the velocity head in the reach, orboth.9.2 Cro

49、ss sections represent the geometry of a reach ofchannel. For example: section 2 should be typical of the reachfrom halfway upstream to section 1 to halfway downstream tosection 3. A minimum of three cross sections is highlyrecommended.9.2.1 Locate cross sections at major breaks in the high-waterprofiles. To do so, the high-water marks should be plotted inthe field, and a profile for each bank drawn before sections arelocated and surveyed. Several high-water marks near the endsof the sections are desirable to define the high-water ele
