Scope of Work
The study of both projects aimed at providing the appropriate openings with
adequate capacity capable to carry the estimated discharge without causing any
damages to the road body taking into consideration the scour analysis and minimum
clearance as recommended by the MOT in the Kingdom.
The hydrological study was based on the data collected from the topographic maps of
scale 1:50,000 for KSA, rainfall data, topography of the terrain, soil condition, and
land use which are significant parameters that affect the runoff and peak discharge.
