View solution

Q. Design a lined canal carrying a discharge of 20 cumecs. The slope is 1 in 7000. Assume suitable values for side slopes and lining.

View solution

Q. Design a lined canal to carry a discharge of 400 cumecs and slope is 1 in 6000. Take side slopes as 1 : 1 and rugosity constant as 0.012. Assume limiting velocity as 3 m/sec.

View solution

Q. What type of major dangers can the lining of canals extinguish?

View solution

Q. What costs are reduced with the help of lining a canal?

View solution

Q. A lined canal costs about 2 to 2.5 times as much as the unlined canal.

View solution

Q. Which of the following is not an advantage of the lining of the canal?

View solution

Q. The capacity of the channel is a function of velocity.

View solution

Q. What is the range of value of Manning’s coefficient for straight alignment for cast in-situ concrete lining?

View solution

Q. Lining decreases the channel capacity and consequently reduces the required channel section.

View solution

Q. Removal of silt considerably reduces the annual expenditure required on unlined channels for desilting.
