1.3 Hydrological Analysis
1.3.1 Flood Analysis
Flood flow analysis is a primary requirement for determining parameters necessary for construction of the bridges. Flood flow on the river was
estimated using the empirical methods, the area velocity method, WECS/DHM method, and lastly the area proportion method.
