In this part of the graduation report concerning the Jamuna Bridge Project in Bangla Desh, the main issues are the following : - An elaborate inventarisation of parameters and qualities of the Jamuna River system which are of consequence for the design concept of the river training works as weIl as the bridge itself. In this context special attention is given to the stability of the river in the past and the prediction of water- and bedlevels. - The development of a design philosophy and criterium for the lay-out of the bridge works. In this respect the length of the required training works versus the bridge length is of essential importance. - The determination of the principal design criteria for the structural design of the river training works. The aim of this part of the study is to arrive at a first configuration of the required training works. Due to the limited time span it was not possible to refine the configuration, i.e. a reconsideration of assumptions, starting points and design criteria as the scheme in appendix I suggests. In fact it is this scheme which has been run through one time. Also this report does not pretend to give a complete elaboration of all factors concerning the design of training works. It is therefore often only indicated that certain factors should be included in the design process possibly leading to another solution.
