Introduction

The following section looks at bridges using the 1D component of TUFLOW, for information on bridges in the 2D domain please see the following section on 2D hydraulic Structures and Module 6.

As a typical rule-of-thumb, if the channel up stream &/or downstream of the bridge is modeled in 1D then the bridge should also be modeled in 1D. Ideally any change in the channel from ESTRY 1D to 2D or vice-versa should also occur at a structure (i.e. bridge, culvert, etc) to facilitate the transition in solution schemes. The images below displays a typical preferred setup, however as is the case with hydraulic modeling your particular model situation may be different and therefore not always conform to these ideals.

  • 1D channel to 1D bridge to 1D channel
  • 1D channel to 1D bridge to 2D channel
  • 2D channel to 1D bridge to 1D channel


  • Link to 2D section – this section explains 1D bridges only.
  • Advice on when you would model a 1D bridge versus a 2D bridge (read module 6).
  • Examples on a XZ and HW bridge type – pictures & csv examples
  • Information on the checks you can carry out
  • Method A & Method B for bridges – refer to Bill’s post on 1.56 value


Loss Theory

Details on how the default loss coefficient of 1.56 was derived can be found here.

  • Theory
    • Loss types (piers Kp, blockage Kb)
    • Guidance/reference on how to derive losses
    • Make sure to include section on automation of pier losses?

Irregular shaped bridges

Typical checks

The table below highlights some of the commonly used check files when reviewing 1D bridges. The full list of TUFLOW check files can be found here.

Filename prefix / suffix Brief Description
_1d_bc_tables_check.csv Contains the inverts of the 1D nodes and at the ends of the 1D channels. Very useful for checking for smooth transitions from one channel to another and with the nodes.
1d_ta_tables_check.csv Tabular data as read from tables via the 1d_tab layers for cross-section, storage and other data. Provides full traceability to original data source and additional information such as hydraulic properties determined from a cross-section profile. Flood Modeller XZ processed, and MIKE 11 processed cross-section data included. Refer also to the _xsl_check layer.
_hydroprop_check.mif
_hydroprop_check_L.shp
Contains the hydraulic properties at the top of the hydraulic properties tables as attributes of the 1D channels. Other information such as the primary Manning’s n is also provided. Very useful for carrying out quality control checks on the 1D channels.
_inverts_check.mif
_inverts_check_P.shp
Contains the inverts of the 1D nodes and at the ends of the 1D channels. Very useful for checking for smooth transitions from one channel to another and with the nodes.
_iwl_check.mif
_iwl_check_P.shp
GIS .mif/.mid or .shp files of the initial water levels at the 1D model nodes.
_nwk_C_check.mif
_nwk_C_check_L.shp
GIS .mif/.mid or .shp files of the final 1D model network. This check layer contains the channels of the 1D domain only. The _nwk_N_check layer contains the nodes.

The layers lines are coloured based on the channel type (available for the .mid/.mif format only).
Any generated pit channels are shown as a small channel flowing from north to south into the pit node. The upstream pit channel node that is generated is also shown. The length of the pit channel is controlled by Pit Channel Offset == command.

_nwk_N_check.mif
_nwk_N_check_P.shp
GIS .mif/.mid or .shp files of the final 1D model network. This check layer contains the nodes of the 1D domain only. The _nwk_C_check layer contains the channels.

The node symbology is displayed as a red circle for nodes connected to two or more channels, a larger magenta circle for nodes connected to one channel and a large yellow square for nodes not connected to a channel (available for the .mid/.mif format only). This is very useful for checking for channel ends or nodes that are not snapped.
The top and bottom elevations of the NA table at nodes is now shown using the Upstream_Invert and Downstream_Invert attributes.

_xsl_check.mif
_xsl_check_L.shp
GIS layer containing tabular data as read from 1d_xs input layers. Contains the XS ID and other useful information on the cross-section properties, etc. Refer also to _ta_tables_check.csv.
