Question: P . 5 . 2 0 . A very sinuous length segment of an earthen channel carrying Q = 3 5 m 3 s frequently

P.5.20. A very sinuous length segment of an earthen channel carrying Q=35m3s frequently erodes. The channel cross-section can be approximated as a trapezoid with a bottom width of b=3m and side slopes of m=3.0. The bottom slope is S0=0.003. The channel will be lined with very angular riprap to prevent the erosion problem. Select a proper riprap size. To determine the Manning roughness factor, use Eq.(5.28) with Cm=0.039.
