The document calculates scour depth for a river discharge of 1,200,000 cubic seconds based on established formulas. It determines the normal scour depth would be 4.874 meters and the maximum scour depth on the upstream side would be 6.093 meters. Based on these calculations, it recommends the upstream cutoff level should be set at 20.750 meters.

SCOUR DEPTH CALCULATIONS
Discharge in River 1200000 Cusecs
Maximum diacharge = 33980.9 Cumecs Bed width of approach canal = 4045 m Discharge per unit width 'q' = 33980.857450303 / 4045 = 8.401 Cumecs/met As per Clause 8.5.2 of I.S. 7784 (Part-I) 1993 Assuming silt factor 'f' = 1.5 Normal scour depth = R = 1.35 x (q2 / f)1/3 = 1.35 x (8.401² / 1.5)^(1/3) R = 4.874 m
Maximum scour depth on U / S side = 1.25 x R
= 1.25 x 4.874 = 6.093 m
F T L on U/S side = 31.3
Up stream cut off level = 31.3 - 6.093
= 25.207 There fore provide U / S cut off level = 20.750
