Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.
Proven methods for preventing and mitigating bridge and highway flood scourOffering detailed guidelines on bridge scour countermeasures, this comprehensive resource provides a proactive strategy for the design and construction of bridges to prevent scour, as well as a reactive plan for post-flood disaster management.
Topics discussed include erosion, causes of scour, AASHTO design codes, hydrology, hydraulics, scour analysis, inspection methods, and modern materials technology. Real-world case studies illustrate the concepts presented. The authoritative information in this practical guide will help you to develop more efficient and cost-effective design processes and bridge management systems for river bridges subjected to floods.
Flood Scour for Bridges and Highways covers:
- Floods, scour problems, and mitigation
- River instability caused by flow obstructions
- Past failures and bridges vulnerable to failure
- Geotechnical and hydraulic issues at scour-critical rivers and bridges
- Hydrology, floods, and scour-critical bridges
- Estimating scour depths and selecting applicable countermeasures
- Inspections, ratings, and monitoring countermeasures
- FHWA, HEC-18, and HEC-23 scour countermeasures as remediation
- Innovative methods of flood control and disaster management
