Study on Propriety Evaluation for Protection of Rock Revetment

Recent climate changes have increased flood damage on bank and revetment. However design standard for revetment that is the one of the most important facility for flood protection is not enough in Korea. In this study, destruction of rock revetment in Guryecity caused by the flood on Aug 2007 was inquired by analysis using 2D hydraulic simulation model SMS and the propriety of established plan for protection of rock revetment was evaluated. For this purpose, the ranges of protection facility for revetment was calculated by two methods. The one is normal method to calculate range of pier scour protection facility, and the other is a method of the standard for river design in Korea. The results of both methods are compared to evaluate the established plan.
