    Woodrow Wilson Bridge Replacement Scour Study: Using a 3-D Numerical Model

    New search for: Don, Xibing
    New search for: Stein, Stuart
    New search for: Jones, J. Sterling

    A new bridge is currently being designed to replace the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and span the Potomac River, connecting suburban Virginia and Maryland. The bridge piers are supported by piles designed to support the structure under various loading scenarios and extreme event scour conditions. The cost estimate to drive hundreds of piles to a stable depth to withstand initial scour depth estimates was extremely expensive. This prompted the 3-D scour modeling study described in this paper.
