Identifying the parameters which affect the bridge pier scour and method of protection / Fauzi Che Mohamad

Bridge failures due to flood are becoming very common nowadays. For the Malaysian, the Greg Storm on Keningau, Sabah which had caused a few number of bridges to fail was the most practical example. Therefore, the study of the factors leading to the failure of a bridge would become necessary. This pa...
