Ss = specific gravity of stone 2.7
θ= angle of sloping bank(side slope as 2.00H:1V 26.57 ⁰
ø = angle of repose of material of protection works= 40.00 ⁰
v = velocity in m/s at bank= 4 m/s

(a) By IS equation:

K = correction factor of slope given by K = [1-Sin² (θ ) / Sin(Ø)²]½

where
Sin² (θ )= 0.2000

Sin²(Ø)= 0.4651

Therefore correction factor K= [1-0.2/0.4651]^0.5= 0.755

Substituting values of Ss and K in Eq

Ws = 0.02323S s V 6 /[K(S s -I)^3] W= 13.2 kg

Diameter=
Since W = p/6 D ³ Ss gw

D={[Ws * 6]/(Ss Yw) p)}1/3 0.2120 m

(b)By IRC Equation

W =0.018 V 6 W= 13.12 kg

Since W = p/6 D ³ Ss gw

W =p/6 D³ Ss y. = 0.018 V6= 1387.54 D³

 D= 0.023497 V²

Corresponding to the weight (W).

Diameter of stone D= 0.2115 m

21.15 cm

(b)By IRC Equation consdering velocity of flow

D = 0.0282 V² for side slope

for V = 3.000 m/Sec,

D= 0.2538 m = 25.38 cm
And corresponding value of Ws 22.6 kg

(e)By Pilarczyk Equation

D 50 /Y =0.187 Fr 2 '/K 1.25 0.0254

Where 𝑉
Fr is the Froude’s number of Flow. 𝐹𝑟=

0.39103

V=velocity of flow 3.00 m/s

h=depth of flow 6.00 m

Therefore, D 50 / Y = 0.025 Therefore D= 0.191 m

19.05 cm

And corresponding Ws= Ws=(π/6) D3 γs 9.600 kg

Pilarcczyk’s, which is in a non- dimensional form, unlike IS & IRC equations,

is, however,applicable only for a given stability factor kj= 0.76

turbulence factor (Kt = 1.0), shear stress factor(θc=0.035) and

slope factor (K1 = [1 - Sin² θ/Sin² Ø] 0.5 = 0.76)

Size and weight of stones computed by IRC and IS equations differ considerably
when compared with Pylarczyk’s equation. One of the primary reasons for such
variation is that in both IRC and IS methods; weight and size are expressed in
terms of mean flow velocity in the channel. Whereas,in Pylarczyk’s unified type
general equation, several other parameters e.g.safety factor, stability
factor,turbulence factor, velocity and shear stress factor, critical tractive stress
factor, roughness factor etc havebeen introduced.

Filter Criteria
A graded filter of size 150 mm to 300 mm thickness should satis fy following
filter criteria and may be laid beneath the pitching to prevent failure by sucking
action by high velocity. Interface stability (also called 'piping' criterion)

Filter criteria

𝐷15
≤ 4 𝑇𝑂 5
𝐷85
where:
D15 is the grain size of the filter layer (or cover layer) which is
exceeded by 15 % of the material by weight in m;

D85 is the grain size of the base material (soil) which is exceeded
by 85 % of the material by weight in m.

However, in the case of very 'wide' gradation the situation requires an additional
check with respect to the internal migration. In this respect, an important
parameter is the so-called 'uniformity coefficient' Cu, defined by Equation below)
and the shape of the sieve curve to ensure good gradation

𝐷60
𝐶𝑢 = ≤6
𝐷10

Further, the D15 (filter) must be 4 to 5X the D15 (soil being protected)
