• Abstract:
  This program is used for the hydraulic analysis of waterways at bridge sites and for determining information on backwater that can be produced or caused by a bridge. The program consists of two parts. Part 1 analyzes the open channel or natural stream section and produces typical stage-discharge information. Part 2 analyzes the constricted opening and determines water velocities and backwater heights for given discharges. The program was developed for the IBM 1410 computer in FORTRAN, a problem oriented programming language. The FORTRAN statements are furnished in place of the usual block diagram.
