Overview

Experimental testing and CFD simulations reveal scour patterns in triangular pier groups, suggesting critical design insights.

Key Points

  • Scour severity increases significantly with smaller center-to-center spacing ratios among bridge piers.
  • Maximum scour depths reached up to 100.5 mm at a spacing ratio of Z/B = 1.0, indicating severe hydraulic effects.
  • CFD simulations, validated with experimental results, effectively model scour behavior around triangular pier arrangements.
  • Guidance from this study aims to help bridge engineers mitigate scour risks with optimal pier spacing in designs.
