Stephen T. MaynordHydraulics LaboratoryU. S. Army Engineer WaterwaysJune 1978Final ReportThe objective of this investigation was to develop a riprap design pro- cedure based on known or easily calculated variables that properly describes riprap stability. Model tests of riprap stability were used in this investiga- tion to insure that the proposed design procedure is applicable to the higher turbulence levels found in decelerating flow in open channels. Design curves for bottom riprap and side slope riprap in straight channels are presented. Tentative criteria for riprap in channel bends are discussed.

    IV. DEVELOPMENT OF SIDE SLOPE CRITERIA

    The coefficient C in Equation l will be determined for riprap

    -on channel side slopes. Results from the model tests will be used to

    determine C and this value will be compared -to existing criteria ...

    4-l Model Tests

    Tests of the lV:4H and lV:3H channels.showed that failure occurred

    on both the channel bottom and the channel side slopes. Therefore the

    equation for channel bottom riprap at incipient motion

    D50 depth

    - 3 = 0.22F (3 bis)

    is applicable to channel side slope riprap at incipient motion for side

    slopes of lV:3H or flatter.

    The results of the model tests of the 1V:2H channel are shown in

    Table 2-1. In every test, the 1V:2H channel failed on the side slope

    only. A plot of D50

    /depth versus Froude number for these tests is

    shown in Figure 4-l. The relationship for incipient motion for riprap

    on a lV:2H side slope as shown in Figure 4-l is

    4-2 Existing Criteria

    D50 depth

    3 = 0.25F (29)

    Anderson's criteria for sizing riprap on channel side slopes are

    also based on the tractive force or shear stress method. The critical

    shear stress that is required to initiate motion is reduced by the

    By comparing incipient motion conditions for 1V:2H side slopes from

    Table 4-1 to incipient motion conditions for channel bottoms from

    Table 3-1, a relation between the two conditions can be determined for

    the value C to be used in Equation 1.

    Equation 1 for incipient motion for 1V:2H side slopes becomes

    D50 3 depth = 0.25F (35)

    based on the ratio of Anderson's bottom criteria to side slope

    criteria.

    The riprap stability criteria presented by Ramette was based on ' ..

    tests of channel side slopes of 1V:2H and 1V:3H. Incipient motion rock

    sizes are determined by solving Equations 18, 19, and 20. The veloc-

    ity used in Equation 20 is taken 0.8 depth above the toe of the slope.

    Based on the velocity profiles in Figures 2-3 to 2-9, this value can

    be estimated by

    V(0.8 depth above toe) - 1.2V(average channel velocity) (36)

    Incipient motion rock sizes for typical channel discharges, bot-

    tom widths, and channel bottom slopes are determined for 1V:2H side

    slopes using Ramette's approach and n50

    shown as presented in EM 1110-2-1601 (4). Tbe maximum shear in a chan-

    nel bend as a function of bend radius and water surface width is shown

    in Figure 5-2. This figure was taken. from EM . lll0-2~1601 and is a good

    summary of the work previously conducted in the field of shear distri-

    bution in channel bends. Additional research is needed to determine

    the effects of total bend angle and side slope angle on the shear dis-

    tribution in a channel bend. Figure 5-2 was based on a channel with

    1V:2H side slopes and a 60 bend angle. Figure 5-2 was used to deter-

    mine tentative values of C in Equation 1 for sizing riprap in channel

    bends.

    the area downstream that is affected by the curve.

    The results of this investigation show that riprap stability can

    be described by parameters that are known or easily computed. Froude

    number and depth of flow are used to determine stable riprap size.

    Comparison of the Froude number approach with existing shear stress

    design methods shows that Froude number and depth of flow properly de-

    scribe riprap stability.

    The model tests show that riprap on channel side slopes of 1V:3H

    or flatter require no increase in rock size to maintain stability.

    Appropriate relations for determining stable rock sizes on 1V:2H side

    slopes were developed from the model test and existing design concepts.

    Additional research is needed so that stable rock sizes in channel

    bends can be determined.
