  • Investigation of Scour Mitigation Methods for Critical Road Structures
    University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Engineering and Surveying Investigation of Scour Mitigation Methods for Critical Road Structures A dissertation submitted by Peggy Chou Pei-Chen in fulfilment of the requirements of ENG4111 and ENG4112 Research Project towards the degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Civil) Submitted October, 2016 Supervisor: Weena Lokuge and Buddhi Wahalathantri i Abstract The flood events that occurred in 2011 and 2013 in Queensland are notable for their devastating outcomes and damages to critical road structures. Bridges are necessary for the local community to travel and provide disaster relief during times of need. Therefore, it is important to identify methods that prevent bridge scour. To identify these countermeasures, a literature review of critical infrastructure scour prevention method was conducted. Methods that are appropriate were then analysed using the hydraulics software HEC-RAS. The Tenthill Creek Bridge was chosen as the framework of the analysis. Bridge scour depths were modelled and each method was compared. Combined with the HEC-RAS analysis, the feasibility analysis shows that a combination of collaring, riprap and wing walls is the most cost effective in decreasing the scour depths at piers and abutments. ii University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Engineering and Surveying ENG4111 Research Project Part 1 & ENG4112 Research Project Part 2 Limitations of Use The Council of the University of Southern Queensland, its Faculty of Engineering and Surveying, and the staff of the University of Southern Queensland, do not accept any responsibility for the truth, accuracy or completeness of material contained within or associated with this dissertation.

  • Senate Inquiry Into Regional Inequality
    Lockyer Valley Regional Council Submission to the Senate Economics References Committee Inquiry into Regional Inequality 30 April 2018 Introduction This Submission has been made by the Lockyer Valley Regional Council to the Senate Economics References Committee (the Committee) to: • highlight the very real inequalities that have been identified • give examples from our regional context, and to • demonstrate the at times seemingly ad hoc approach to policies. These policies are failing to address these inequalities and are therefore failing regional communities. It is beyond doubt that regional inequality exists. The Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA) developed by the Australian Bureau of Statistics clearly demonstrates this inequality. Regional and remote Australia has very real imbalances. What is less clear is whether or not there is a genuine desire by Commonwealth and State governments to address this imbalance and whether strategies can be identified and implemented in any meaningful way. The SEIFA statistics demonstrate that regional inequality increases outside our capital cities. The statistics also reveal a common misconception - that the further you proceed from the coast or our capital cities, inequality increases. Again the SEIFA statistics are revealing and demonstrate a variety of advantage and disadvantage across States and Territories. For example, the administrative centre of the Lockyer Valley is situated at Gatton which is located in South East Queensland (SEQ) less than 100 km from the Brisbane GPO. Yet this local government area clearly demonstrates regional inequality in a range of areas including health, education, regional unemployment, regional development and infrastructure delivery. In the past our Mayor has referred to Lockyer Valley as “outer regional” as, while located in SEQ, she feels our region is very much “on the outer” when it comes to decision making at a National and State level – particularly in those areas of inequality listed above.
