| Abstract/Contents: | "Design of bioengineered slope stabilization measures in riverine environments to minimize rates of stream bank erosion requires accounting for a number of hydraulic, geomorphic, geotechnical, vegetative, and construction factors. Due to the complex interaction of these factors, an interactive design process is required. Using a completed large-scale project on the Raritan River (New Jersey) to provide detailed examples, this paper describes design guidelines for bioengineered bank stabilization in fluvial systems. Guidelines discussed include: characterization of hydrology (flow regime, flood flows, frequency and duration of flows, and water surface models); hydraulic conditions (bed and bank tractive forces and scour depths); fluvial geomorphic processes (channel planform stability, bed features, and bankfull cross-section): geotechnical considerations (shallow and deep slope failures, and erosional stability); vegetative aspects (species composition, rooting characteristics, plant selection and siting by zones of inundation); fish and wildlife requirements (fish habitat and wildlife forage and cover); and constructability considerations (project sequencing, dewatering methods, equipment access, and temporary erosion control measures)." |
