In an example, the probability of failure induced by scouring around dual piers is estimated for various pier spacing using probabilistic analysis. The effects of changes in the coefficient of variation of probabilistic scouring variables and probability distributions on the probability of the loss of stability, are also investigated. It was established that the effects of variations in the coefficient of variation on the probability of the loss of stability are more significant compared to that on the probability distributions of the scour depth.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessbridgepierprobability of the loss of stabilityscourtandem arrangementuncertaintyArticleQ4719739747WOS:000487969200003
