Assessment on local scale….WHY?
03/12/2015
• Prevention flood disasters in particular locations-sites• Adjustment of developmental programs regarding planning of
buildings and facilities concerning safety….Safety comes first• Targeted measures for flood hazard elimination• Preparedness of authorities dealing with crisis situations in potential
flooding• Assessment of Flash Flooding by worst-case precipitation scenarios• Compliance with the EU and National Guidelines and Legislation.

To Whom It May Concern……?
• Public Sector, Regional Authorities, Public services etc dealingwith hydraulic analyses, water management, environmental control,natural disaster assessment, decision making and support systems,urban planning…..
• Private sector and Construction sector for the correct dimensioningof hydraulic works
Regional to local…..difference1. Local scale analysis requires knowledge and experience in hydraulic
analysis.Multi-purpose use of results. The same results may be used by a
large number organizations and people.

• HEC-RAS has been developed for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
• Download from http://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-ras/downloads.aspx and.... follow installation instructions

Hydraulic Analysis• HEC-RAS performs one-dimensional hydraulic calculations
for a full network of natural and constructed channelsCapabilities of HEC-RAS:
• Hydraulic Analysis• Data Storage and Management • Graphics and Reporting • RAS Mapper • HEC-RAS 4.1(among others…new Mapper
and Sediment Transport Model)
This software is free, widely used and scientifically acceptedLarge documentation and technical background on its use

HEC-RAS. How it was done…..
Structure of HEC-RAS• Creates and saves project files(.prj file)Each project includes:1. Unit system (SI/US customary)2. Geometry (XS, bridges, weirs, etc.) (.g file)3. Flow Data (steady, unsteady) (.f file)4. Plan data (combination of flow/geometry to use for the analysis) (.p file)
Many files of geometry flow and plan data can be created!!!!!!!

Dealing with geometry and Cross Sections
• Cross sections define the channel geometry• Cross sections are defined by Station(x) and Elevation (y)• Cross sections (among other parameters) define the channel slope• Overbank stations differentiate channel and floodplain characteristics• Manning n coefficients define resistance to flow• Expansion and contraction coefficients define energy losses
associated with velocity head changes between cross sections• Ineffective flow areas can store but not convey water downstream• Obstruction areas block flow completely• Levee elevations confine flow to channel until the levees are
overtopped

Easy-to- use multiple window Interface
Insert picture
Add image file, check image file and close
If the image is not visible set image computed extends from schematic plot extend in view menu
Cross sections may be also added through a .csv file format

• Geometry check!!!!• Add necessary data (banks, levees, obstructions, inefficient areas
etc, Input coefficients…..• Manning Values, Con/Exp coefficients, boundary conditions !!!!!

Flow data Input in flow data window….many profiles-flows were assessed.
1.Set the number of profiles…for different flow rates
2.Set the flow rate…. watch the units
3.Click on the apply data button

Set the boundary conditionsSave the flowData, (the first time use the “save as” option
From the main HEC-RAS menu a plan may by saved…but not necessary.

If computations are successful the following window appears, otherwise…
Errors and problems’ reports appear in this area and everything should be corrected… then run the simulation again
Congrats , you did it!
