Measures/Analysis for Overtoping River Banks
Measures/Analysis for Overtoping River Banks
(OP)
Common Problem: MEFL or Flood Level is higher than the banks. We don't know whether the water came from the river or the water inland got caught up with the river. Area is practically flood-plain.
What are the usual measures/analysis for this kind of situation. Discharge capacity from Hydrology may be a.) higher than the river capacity b.) lower than the river capacity.
P.S. This is not for an actual project, I'm just curious, but somehow someday I'll be encountering one for sure.

To cut it short, so for a case of an overtoping waters in the river, you need a thorough flood study. For that, what will be the components of the study?
