TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 177: Evaluation of Bridge Scour Research: Geomorphic Processes and Predictions explores the impact of long-term aggradation and degradation, and lateral river channel migration, on highway structures.

In September 2012 TRB released NCHRP Research Results Digest 378: Evaluation of Bridge Scour Research, which summarizes key finding of NCHRP Web-Only Document 177 along with two other NCHRP projects that explored processes and predictions related to pier scour, abutment and contraction scour, and geomorphic scour.
