b. What precautions and remedial measures would you undertake to control the seepage through, i) Earthen dam body ii) The dam foundation.
c. Half plantat foundation and half pan at ground level.
b. Longitudinal section.
a. Cross section showing half elevation and half section.
Design a canal regulator cum-road bridge with the following particulars:
Hydraulic particulars of canal upstream : Full supply discharge = 20m3/sec ; Bed Width = 15m ; Bed lovel = 20.0m ; Full supply depth =2.0m; Full supply level = + 22.0m Top level of bank = + 23.0m. The right bank is 5m wide and left bank is 2m wide. Hydraulic particulars of canal downstream : Full supply discharge = 16m/sec ; Bed Width = 15m; Bed level = + 200m ; Full supply depth = 1.75m ; Full supply level = +21.75m; Top level of bank = + 22.75m. Top width of banks are the same as those on the upstream side. The regulator carries a road way single lane designed for LR.C loading class 'A'. Provide clear freeboard of one moter above F.S.L for road bridge. Good foundation soil is available at +19.00. Assume the ground level site as +22.00. The co-efficient of drawing ratio for 80% is 1.645, 85% is 1.58 and 90% is 1.358. Draw:
Draw to a suitable scale the following views of the above designed-surplus weir.
c. Draw half plan at foundation and half plan at ground level
b. Draw half longitudinal section and half longitudinal elevation.
a. Cross section of weir.
Design a surplus weir for the following data : Combined catchment area - 51km2 ;Intercepted catchment area = 46km2 ; Top bund level (TBL) = 100.00m; Maximum water level (MWL) = 98.50 m ; Full tank level (FTL) = 97.5m; Average ground level at proposed site=96.5m ; Top width of tank bund =2m ; Side slopes of bund on either side = 2:1 ; Level of hard strata for foundation = 95,00n; The ground level below the weir (D/S of weir) slopes to a level of 95.50m in distance of about 6m. Ryve's co-efficient C = 8; Modified Ryve's coefficient C = 2.5.
Provisions may be made to make Kutcha regulating arrangements to store water upto MWL in terms of necessity
a. Explain the graphical method for the determination of the required storage capacity of are servoir when the demand is i) Uniform ii) Non-uniform.
a. Explain the two different methods which are adopted for constructing earthen dams. Which of these methods would you prefer and why?
b. Following data were obtained from the stability analysis of a concrete gravity dam
i) Totál overturning moment about toe = 1.1 x 106 kN-m. (09 Marks)
ii). Total resisting moment about toe = 2.1 x 106 kN-m.
iii) Total vertical force about base = 54,000 KN.
IV) Base width of the dam = 50m.
v) Slope of the D/S face = 0.8H:IV.
Calculate the maximum and minimum vertical stress to which the foundation will be subjected to, what is the maximum principal stress at toe? Assume there is no tail water.
a. Define Gravity dam. Explain with neat sketch the drainage galleries in gravity dam.
c. The construction costs for certain possible heights of a dam at a given site have been estimated and the storage capacity for all these dam heights are tabulated in the table below:
Determine the most economical height of the dam (04 Marks)
b. Write short notes on the following:
iii) Multipurpose reservoir.
ii) Distribution reservoir
i) Flood control reservoir
