Citarum River is one of the longest and largest rivers in Indonesia located in West Java with a length of 300 km. The Citarum River carries the sediment in the water stream from the erosion. This study focused on bed load sediment transport. The study of sediment transport is still a few, but some experts have proposed the formula to calculate the amount of sediment transport such as Einstein, Shields, and Schoklitsch. A research in Hydraulics Laboratory and Soil Mechanics Laboratory is conducted to examine the bed load transport from the Citarum River. The purpose of this study is to analyze and compare the result of discharge obtained from the laboratory with the Einstein, Shields, and Schoklitsch approach.
