Design of Stable Canals and Channels in Erodible Material
The design of stable channels in erodible material is complex and depends on the incomplete technical development of open-channel hydraulics, sediment transport, and fluvial morphology. Considerable engineering experience and judgment are required in an approach to this problem. Major factors that must be integrated into the design of a canal are listed and examined herein. The development and present method of the design of canals are outlined. Factors causing a change in stream regimen are enumerated. Several methods by which the proper size and shape of a channel can be computed are suggested, and one example is presented. Practical considerations and field experience in channel-stability problems are given. An outline of the basic data needed for the adequate design of a channel is presented.
