About this document

Fluvial Design: River Structure Guidelines by Emilia Caselli is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This chapter discusses the design of common river and canal structures. It addresses basic civil engineering concepts like designing for a range of flows and sediment loads in dynamic river systems. Transitions between structures and channels are important to minimize disturbances. A multidisciplinary team is needed as structures involve civil, electrical, and mechanical elements. Design must consider public safety and resilience against vandalism or theft. Erosion, scour, and fluvial processes must also be
