IS 15360 : 2003 Measurement of Liquid Flow in Open Channels - Bed Material Sampling

1 Scope

This standard gives guidance on methods for sampling of bothnon-cohesive sand bed material and cohesive bed material (both ofwhich may contain some fine gravel), principally for the purpose ofdetermining the grain size frequency distribution of the bedmaterial in open channels.
