Define Gradient and its types.
The maximum quantity of water expected in one of the open longitudinal drains on clayey soil is Design the cross section and longitudinal slope of trapezoidal drain assuming the bottom width of the trapezoidal section to be 1.0 m and cross slope to be 1.0 vertical to 1.5 horizontal. The allowable velocity of flow in the-drain is 1.2 m/sec and Manning's roughness co-efficient is 0.02.
