Laboratory Investigation of Erosion Control Using Hard Points Conducted at Mead Hydraulic Laboratory, Mead, Nebraska

Abstract

The object of these model studies is to investigate the use and applicability of erosion control structures associated with the control and maintenance of river banks for the purpose of finding the most economical, effective, and environmentally acceptable solution. This particular study was initiated to find and identify information that would aid in our design methods. The study investigated hard point structures in S-shaped basin alignment under uniform flow and constant slope conditions.
