Scour monitoring on bridge pier: two French returns on experience
Résumé
Scour represents a significant contributing factor in structures destruction. Managing the scour risk on bridge piers and abutments, road or rail type, exposed to natural hazards constitutes a major challenge to sustainable development and land use planning. One of major issues for managing this risk is the monitoring of structures. In this context, the work presented here provides a French return on experience. Two real sites were indeed selected and instrumented. The instrumentation was carried out in an exhaustive manner: velocity fields, bathymetry, water levels, and even vibration measurements on the last one, etc. Following the acquisition of numerous continuous measurements, details on data processing and a first feedback are provided.
