Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Bridges are import components of highway construction.However,their piers decrease the flood section area,increase the water level and thus influence the embankment.According to the corresponding provisions,we should assess the influence on flood control before the construction of any bridge.Therefore,the computation of water level increase plays of an important part in flood control.Aiming at assessing the influence of bridge pier on flood control,this paper analyzes this problem in details using finite element method.
