Statement I: True
Alluvial channel are those channel which are excavated in alluvial soils i.e. sediments are of the same physical characteristic as the material in the surface of channel. These channels are designed by using the following theories:
1. Kennedy’s theory
2. Lacey’s Theory
3. Sediment Transport Theory
Statement II: False
The channel cross-section and the channel slope may or may not change depending on whether the silting or scouring take place or not in channel.
If there is neither silting nor scouring takes place, then only channel slope and cross-section do not change and such channel is called regime or stable channel.
