An evaluating methodology for hydrotechnical torrent-control structures condition by Şerban Octavian Davidescu, Ioan Clinciu, Nicolae Constantin Tudose, Cezar Ungurean

“…This new parameter may be used to track the impact of different features (structure age, components sizes, the position in the system, the construction materials, riverbed slope, geology of the area, etc.) on the condition of structures.By establishing the condition rate for all the structures within a collectivity (an entire watershed or catchment area, a single watercourse, a battery of works etc.), there may be made an analysis and a grading both at individual level and population-wide level, which lead to order the repairs or additions of new structures to existing hydrotechnical systems.Also, the model designed can be a part of a monitoring system regarding torrent-control structures, answering, thus, the requirements on this issue of the “National Strategy for Flood Risk Management” approved by the Romanian Government in 2010.…”
