Measuring method and device for determining the depth of an erosion as it forms

摘要

A quayside scour measurement procedure measures the sink depth in a sediment bottom (S) of a vertically moving sinker at points close to the quay (Q) construction with maximum and instantaneous scour (K) measured using sinkers of appropriate densities (12) relative to the sediment and water. Independent claims are included for measurement units using the procedure.
