چکیده

Scouring around the bridge piers is one of the main reasons for the destruction of bridges. One of the methods to reduce scouring around the bridge piers is installing a protective collar on the base. For this purpose, to investigate the effect of the collar, a series of experiments in a laboratory flume with an bend of 180 degrees and a central radius of 2.8 meters and a width of 0.6 meters with  R / B = 4 was made of Plexiglas. In this research, by placing a base with a diameter of 5 cm with different collars of relative length upstream and downstream 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1 in the position of 70 ° bend with a constant flow of 16 liters Per second and a constant depth of 10 cm. The scouring phenomenon around the base in the state of clear water was investigated. Natural sand with uniform granulation with Dm = 2 mm and uniformity coefficient of 1.8 was used for canal floor. The results of this study showed. Increasing the relative length of the collar upstream and downstream significantly reduces the amount of local scour around the base and also the highest and lowest percentage of reduction in scour depth around the collar with the relative length of upstream and downstream, respectively, 68 and 12 has been achieved.
