The reason for difference in water levels can be natural such as tidal variations or can be manmade such as construction of dam or barrage across the river. The main components of Navigation lock comprise of approach channels, lock pit, filling/emptying arrangement. Design of lock depends on lockage time, water level variations, Lock capacity requirements, design vessel size. filling/emptying system shall be designed to work under gravity flow without any pumping requirements. Filling/emptying system is chosen to get appropriate filling/ emptying time. The optimum time for filling and emptying is generally kept between 8.0-10.0 minutes. The size of filling culverts are so computed to attain the optimum time for filling/emptying. Every lock is unique in terms of its geology, location, size, requirements and water level differences. Here typical design aspects of a navigational Lock in inland waterway have been described.

  • Water Navigation
    US Army Corps of Engineers NAVIGATION is travel or transportation over water. Many different kinds of boats and ships are used on rivers and oceans to move people and products from one place to another. River Vessels: ACTIVITY Poster Series Navigation was extremely important for foreign and domestic trade and travel in the early Comparing Different Modes of Transportation days of our country before cars, trucks, trains, and airplanes were invented. In those days, The most common way of transporting products on rivers is by TOW.

  • DESIGN GUIDELINES for INLAND WATERWAY DIMENSIONS by Bernhard Söhngen1, Y
    PIANC-World Congress Panama City, Panama 2018 DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR INLAND WATERWAY DIMENSIONS by Bernhard Söhngen1, Y. Cordier2, J.-M. Deplaix3, K. Eloot4, J. Iribarren5, P.-J. Pompee6, K. Rettemeier7 ABSTRACT The PIANC INCOM WG 141 was founded in 2010 to provide planners of inland waterways with design standards for inland waterways. The report with the title “Design Guidelines for of Inland Waterway Dimensions” will be published in 2018. In 18 meetings and three interim meetings on special questions, the group has undertaken a comprehensive view on guidelines and practice examples as well as methods for detailed design. International standards as well as practice examples show a wide scatter of recommended waterway dimensions. One reason for the differences is the great variety in traffic density but also the tradition of shipping in different countries. Furthermore, especially waterways with significant flow velocities as rivers are a complex system influenced by its varying bathymetry and currents to mention just a few aspects. So it is not appropriate to give just “one” design waterway dimension. Instead a special design method was developed, basing generally on the application of three design methods: “Concept Design Method” (coming from conceptual), “Practice Approach” and “Detailed Design”. Special recommendations will be provided for designing fairways in canals and rivers, bridge opening widths, lock approach length’s and widths and the dimensions of turning basins, junctions and berthing places. The “Concept Design Method” provides basic dimensions for designing the necessary waterway dimensions. The data come mostly from existing guidelines. In a next step, called "Extended Concept Design Method", special aspects as wind or currents will be accounted for by providing formulae, derived from approximations of the driving dynamics of inland vessels.

The key to Louisiana’s economy is to stay a leader and continue to attract new business to the region. We can do this by keeping our waterways and infrastructure open and accessible to all types of businesses. A key issue for Louisiana’s Marine Transportation System is that deeper channels are needed to the Gulf. Deeper water is needed to move larger projects out to the Gulf of Mexico and keep Louisiana fabricators and the many associated businesses and water transportation companies competitive in the global market.

About the Georgia Coastal Research Council: The Georgia Coastal Research Council (GCRC) was established to provide mechanisms for improved scientific exchange between coastal scientists and decision makers, and to promote the incorporation of best-available scientific information into State and local resource management. The Council is not a policy organization, but rather seeks to provide unbiased, objective information about scientific issues. Baseline support for the program is shared by the Coastal Resources Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (through the Coastal Management Program) and Georgia Sea Grant, with project-specific support from the National Science Foundation and other agencies.
