Name of Work: Construction of Storage Structures for rejunivation and improvement of water quality
on the Sal river in Salcete Taluka.
High flood discharge level observed is upto 4.00 mts above bed level at cross-sectional (i.e. RL 96.00).
Cross-sectional area of river = 105.00m2
Wetted perimeter of river = 43.00mts
Bed slope of river = 1: 84
By Inglis Formula:
Q = 1171.50/51.40 = 22.80
R = 1.35 x (22.80)1/3
1.50
= 10.33 ≈ 10.50m
Length of Pier
= 48 - 16.80 –(4x2) -2
= 20.70m
In order to reduce the length of the apron ,it is proposed to provide an additional cut off of 1.0m depth
in the central portion of apron below the pier
= 20.70 -2x1
= 18.70
Say =19.00m
DESIGN OF PIER:
For calculating stresses only the straight portion of the pier will be considered:
1. Stress at base due to self weight:
Self weight of the pier = 1.60 x 0.90 x 2.00 x 2.40 =6.9t/m3
Compressive stress at the base = 6.9 = (+) 4.8t/m2
0.90 x1.60
2. Effect of Buoyancy:
During high flood and when the bandhara is closed, the submerged volume of the pier
= 0.90 x 1.60 x 2.00= 2.88 m3
Stress at base due to buoyancy = 2.88 x 1.0 = (-) 2.00 t/m2
0.9 x 1.60
3. Stress due to hydrostatic force:
Hydrostatic force when bandhara is closed and there is no water to the downstream
= w x h2 = 1.0 x 2.00 x2.00 x 2.90 = 5.80t
2 2
Stress at base due to Buoyancy = 2.88x1 = -2.00t/m2
0.90x1.60
Therefore, Moment due to hydrostatic force = 5.80 x 2.00 = 3.87t-m
3
Therefore, Stress = M = 3.87 = (+ ) 10.08t/m2
Z (0.9 x 1.62)
6
= 0.484 t
This force acts at a distance of 2/3 from the base.
Therefore, Moment = 0.484 x 2= 0.322 t-m
3
Z = (0.9 x 1.602)=0.384

Summary of Stresses:
Since Maximum Tensile Stress < Allowable Tensile Stress, hence safe.
