Project Goals The objective of this research is to improve the MDOT
bridge scour prediction capability. This will be accomplished by calibrating and/or modifying level 2 (HEC-18) scour prediction equations for Michigan specific conditions.
The research plan consists of: Literature Review Evaluate MDOT’s Current Scour Evaluation Procedures Review Scour Evaluation Methods Utilized by Other States Calibrate Level 2 (HEC-18) Scour Prediction Equations for
Michigan Specific Conditions

Project Goals
Task Topics
Literature Review Review and summarize existing USGS, FHWA, and ASCE reports (LTU &
WSU) Perform detailed literature review of electronic databases (LTU & WSU) Contact state DOTs to identify non peer reviewed publications (LTU)
Evaluate MDOT’s Current Scour Evaluation Procedures
Review, summarize, and critique existing MDOT methodologies for scour evaluation (LTU & WSU)

Project GoalsTask Topics
Calibrate Level 2 (HEC-18) Scour Prediction Equations for Michigan Specific Conditions
Establish a field data collection personnel safety plan to insure safety of project participants when collecting field data. MDOT safety protocols will be used as a guide (LTU & WSU)
Visit scour critical bridges throughout the lower peninsula of Michigan as identified through meetings with MDOT (LTU & WSU)
Select 12 scour critical bridges across the lower peninsula for episodic monitoring (LTU & WSU)
Select 2 scour critical bridges for continuous monitoring of scour (LTU & WSU) Collect field data and soil samples for all 14 selected scour critical bridges (LTU
& WSU) Perform Level 2 Analysis for 14 selected bridges if necessary. Level 2 Analysis
will not be preformed as part of this project if it was recently completed by MDOT (WSU)
Perform jet device testing at all 14 selected scour critical bridges to determine in-situ soil erodibility (LTU)
Conduct geotechnical laboratory investigation of soil sample to evaluate geotechnical properties of all 14 selected sites (LTU)
Conduct HEC-RAS computer simulations for 14 selected sites as necessary (WSU)
Conduct a parametric evaluation of HEC-18 Scour Prediction Equations for Michigan specific conditions based on existing and project collected scour data (LTU)
Calibrate the Level 2 (HEC-18) Scour Prediction Equations for Michigan specific conditions based on field monitoring of scour, jet device correlations, and parametric evaluation (LTU & WSU)
Generate final report (LTU & WSU) Copy, bind, and submit final report (LTU)

Criteria for Selection
Bridges on the Scour Critical List - State and County Trunk lines
Location spread through multiple watersheds access and ease of monitoring proximity to flow data
Soil Conditions - cohesive Presence of scour counter measures
