INTRODUCTION
Every engineering project when successfully completed forms a valuable asset for the
country. During the construction of Project, it provides employment opportunities to the jobless
persons. For instance, Irrigation projects are necessary for the development of any agricultural
country like India, by the construction of irrigation project fresh and sufficient quantity of water
for the domestic and industrial purposes can be fulfilled whole throughout the year.
Water is the greatest resource of humanity. It not only helps in survival but also helps in
making life comfortable and luxurious. Besides various other uses of water, the largest use of water
in the world is made for irrigating lands. Irrigation indeed, is nothing but a continuous and a reliable
water supply to the different crops in accordance with their different needs. When sufficient and
timely water does not become available to the crops, the crops fade away, resulting in lesser crop
yield, consequently creating famines and disasters. Irrigation project can, thus, save us from such
disasters.
India is a tropical country with a vast diversity of climate, topography and vegetation.
Rainfall in India varies considerably in its place of occurrence, as well as in its amount. Even at a
particular place, the rainfall is highly erratic and irregular, as it occurs only during a few particular
months of the year. Crops cannot, therefore, be raised successfully, over the entire land, without
providing artificial irrigation to fields.
Before undertaking any project, the first and foremost job is to carry out the survey work of the
project area under consideration. Surveying is the art of determining the relative positions of points
on, above or beneath the surface of the earth by means of direct or indirect measurements of
distance, direction, and elevation.
Reconnaissance Survey can be defined as an investigation carried out for obtaining details
required for the commencement of any project by gathering information about the terrain of the
project area. The main objective of this survey is to make preliminary inspection of the area to
be surveyed with the view of selection of good station points. And after inspecting the ground,
a rough sketch of drawings are prepared showing details of roads, buildings, trees and other
important features surrounding it.
1.CHAIN SURVEYING
Chain surveying is that type of surveying in which only linear measurements are made in the
field. This type of surveying is suitable for surveys of small extent on fairly flat open ground.
2. STATION
A survey station is a prominent point on the chain line and can be either at the beginning of
chain line or at the end. Such a station is called as a main station. However, subsidiary or tie
station can also be selected anywhere on the chain line and subsidiary or tie lines may run
through them.
3. BASE LINE
The lines joining the main survey stations are called main survey lines. The biggest of the main
survey line is called the base line and the various survey stations are plotted with reference to
the base line.
4. CHECK LINE
Check lines or proof lines are the lines which run in the field to check the accuracy of the work.
The length of the check line measured in the field must agree with its length on the plan.
5. RANGING
In measuring a survey line the chain has to be laid out on the ground between the stations. If
the line is short, the chain could be put in alignment easily. But as it is long or the end stations
not clearly visible then intermediate points have to be established in line with the end points to
know the direction of the line by ranging.
Methods of Ranging
I. Direct ranging: It is done when the two ends of the survey lines are intervisible.
II. Indirect or Reciprocal ranging: It is done when both the ends of survey line are not
intervisible either due to high intervening ground or due to long distance between
them.
1.2.1 BEARING
The angle measured with respect to any meridian is called bearing. A meridian is any
direction such as;
I. True meridian: true meridian through a point is the line in which a plane, passing
that point and the north and south poles, intersects with surface of the earth.
II. Magnetic meridian: magnetic meridian through a point is the direction shown by a
freely floating and balanced magnetic needle free from all other attractive forces.
In this system, the bearing of a line is measured eastward or westward from north or south,
whichever is nearer. Thus both north and south are used as reference meridian and the direction
can be either Clockwise or anticlockwise direction depending upon the position of the line. The
value of the bearing varies from 00 to 900.
Example: Surveyor compass.
It is a graphical method of survey in which the field observation and plotting proceed
simultaneously. It is a very effective method of surveying for preparing small or medium size
topographical plan. It is relatively less accurate as compared to other methods of surveys.
1.3.2 LEVELLING
The table is leveled by placing the spirit level on the board in two positions at right angles
and getting the bubble central in both directions.
1.3.3 CENTERING
The table should be so placed over the station on the ground that the point plotted on the
sheet corresponding to the station occupied should be exactly over the station on the ground.
The operation is known as centering of plane table. This is achieved by using plumbing fork.
1.3.4 ORIENTATION
The process of keeping the plane table in some fixed direction so that line representing a
certain direction on the plane is parallel to that direction on the ground.
This is essential condition to be fulfilled well more than one Instrument station is to be
used. If orientation is not done, the table will not be parallel to itself at different position
resulting in an overall distortion of the map.
1. RADIATION
In this method, a ray is drawn from the instrument station towards the points, the distance is
measured between the instrument station and that point, and the point is located by plotting to
some scale the distance so measured.
2. INTERSECTION
Intersection is performed when the distance between the points and the instrument station is
either too large or can not be measured accurately due to same field condition.
The location of an object is determined by sighting at the object from two plane table stations
(previously plotted) and drawing the rays.
The intersection of these rays will give the position by the object. It is therefore very
essential to have at least two-instrument station to locate any point.
3. TRAVERSING
This method is similar to that of compass. It is used for running survey lines between stations
which have been previously fixed by other methods of surveying to locate the topographical
details. It is also suitable for the survey of roads, rivers etc..,
4. RESECTION
The compound leveling involves the same process as that of simple leveling, but in
addition, a number of setting of the instrument are require to find out the difference in level the
two points. This may be either due to a large distance or due to some intervening obstructions.
1.4.1.3 FLY-LEVELING
The Reduced Levels of some important points is found by few selected setting of the
instrument to get rough idea of the nature of the ground.
In longitudinal leveling or profile leveling the central line is taken. But when a wider belt
is required for some engineering project, for example a highway, railway etc, profile leveling alone
does not serve the purpose.
In such a, case cross-section are required for the construction of new bund or a road in
connection of a state highway (SH) to national highway (NH) or for a canal it helps us in getting
the real topographical outline in the transverse direction along the alignment by this we can easily
calculate the earth work involved in the construction of highway/ canals etc.
The principle of leveling is that with a level set up at any place, the difference in elevation
between any two points within proper lengths of sight is given by the difference between the rod
readings taken on these points. By a succession of instrument stations and related readings, the
difference in elevation between widely separated points is thus obtained.
In this method the difference in level between successive points is obtained by comparing
the readings from the same settings.
The B.S. & F.S. have been taken from the same setting of the instruments. If F.S. is larger
than B.S., it indicates a fall because a large reading can be obtained on the staff if it goes down.
Similarly a similar B.S. means rise.
In this method the height collation of the instrument is computed by adding B.S. to the R.L.
of B.M. on which the back sight has been taken. The various reading taken from this setting are
subtracted from the height of collimation to get R.L.’s of subsequent points.
1.5 CONTOURING:
A contour is an imaginary line on the ground joining the points of equal elevation. It is a
line in which the surface of the ground is intersected by a level surface.
1 Contour line
It may be defined as an imaginary line passing through points of equal elevation.
2 Contour interval
The constant vertical distance between successive contour lines is called contour interval.
3. Horizontal equivalent
The horizontal distance between two consecutive is called the horizontal equivalent.
DIRECT METHOD:
In this direct method a series of points are selected representing the same elevation, they
then located and contour lines are made to pass through them.
INDIRECT METHOD:
In this method the R.L.’s of the various points are found out. Then the points of the required
elevation are interpolated through which the contour lines are passed. This technic is adopted for
block level of the weir, plug sluice, canals etc.
PLOTTING OF PROFILE:
Horizontal distances are marked on a horizontal line. A datum line is selected. The R.L.’s
of the points are written against the points. A vertical scale is kept quite large as compare to the
horizontal scale.
INTRODUCTION:
Existing tank is a tank which is constructed by earth and lateral stone pitching at the up
stream side of the reservoir. It is constructed in a small valley of length of 240 m.
Existing tank reservoir consists of two small streams and a small hillock at the center as shown in
the contour map.
The site is 1 km from the Shahapur village away from Bidar city. It has an ideal site with the
natural topography.
The set of instruments used in conducting the survey work for existing tank project dumpy level,
plane table, prismatic compass, chains, tapes, cross staff, level staff, arrows, pegs, ranging rods
etc.
STAGES OF WORK:
The survey work for existing tank project is divided into following stages of work;
[i] Alignment of center line of the existing bund, longitudinal and cross section along the
center line.
[ii] Capacity surveys.
[iii] Details of sluice and waste weir.
The longitudinal alignment of bund has a straight line of 225m with respect to north. The
total length of bund is 225m. The top of the bund is 2 m wide leveled. The side slope is 2:1 (2
horizontal to 1 vertical) at the upstream and 1.5:1 at the downstream.
In cross-section we have measured the top width, inclined length of upstream and down
stream side and the slope at every 30m chainage.
According to above data we have taken the cross- section and longitudinal section of
existing earthen bund.
CAPACITY SURVEY:
The second stage of work is the capacity survey. This work is done by plane table with
accessories and the dumpy level. Each contour is of 0.3m interval as shown in the contour map.
There are four contours covering the maximum area of reservoir from the lower
level to the upper level and with the help of planimeter, we have found out the area of each contour.

EXTENSIVE SURVEY CAMP REPORT 2017-18
The waste weir is at the right side of reservoir. It has located at the higher elevation but
lower than the top of bund to discharge excess water.
Waste weir structure is absent at present existing tank hence we have proposed to built a
suitable structure for waste weir. For waste weir we have done the block leveling up to 25m from
the 0 end.
DETAILS OF SLUICE:
The sluice is a structure of stone masonry. There was an opening at the bottom and no
controlling device at the top for sluice we have proposed to construct a good structure with a
controlling device at the top to properly discharge the reservoir water into the canal.
The gross capacity of a tank may be defined as the cubic content of water stored in the tank up to
F.T.L. the effective capacity of a tank with however be the cubic content of water stored between
F.T.L and the bottom or sill level 0 the lowest supply level of the sluice.
There storage capacities can be computed easily by using the contour plan of the area of the water
spread; the total capacity being the sum of the capacities between successive contours the smaller
the contour interval (Δ h). The more accurate the capacity computation will be this is because of
A1 and A2 represents the area enclosed between two successive contour than the cubic content
between these contours is roughly as A1+A2/2(Δ h).
The summation of all cubic contents between the successive contours will be the required storage
capacity of the tank when the contour plan is not available and only the area of the at F.T.L. is
know then the effective cubic content of the tank may be roughly computed as; this area multiplied
by one third (1/3) of the depth from this level (FTL) to the deep bed of the tank or the level of the
sill of the lowest sluice whichever is higher of the two.
If the area (A1) of the tank bed at the level of the sill of the lowest sluice an 1/3
(A1+A2+A1A2) h where h is the height or difference in elevations between F.T.L. and sill level
of the lowest sluice. This formula is based on the assumption that the water stored is in the shape
of a cone.
Although the effective storage capacity of tank is limited by F.T.L. but the area submerged by the
tank by bund revetment are all dependent on MWL and hence in order to restrict the dimensions
of there is it desirable to keep the difference between FTL and MWL to a smaller valve.
A tank sluice is an opening in the form of a culvert or a pipe running through or under the
bund, and supplying water from the tank to the discharging channel below to meet the irrigation or
other water requirements as and when needed suitable wing walls and other bank connections are
also provided as required at the head and tail end of the culvert. In ordinary medium sized sluice,
masonry culverts with or without arch roofs are generally constructed.
The size of the culverts will depend upon the maximum quantity of water it is required to convey,
but in no case should be less than .60, wide and 0.75meter high, so as to allow a the barrel should
also be such as to limit the velocity through the sluice barrel to a maximum of 4.5m/sec under the
condition of plug hole being fully open and with the water at full tank level.

ARITHEMATIC CHECK
INTRODUCTION:
A survey project pertaining to the construction of a new tank is undertaken at a site 1KM
from Shahapur village. It is an ideal site with the natural topography.
The set of instruments used in conducting the survey work for New Tank project etc,
theodolite, dumpy level, plane table, prismatic compass, chains, tapes, cross-staff, level-staff
arrows pegs, ranging rods.
The survey work for new tank project is divided into following stages of work:
[i] Alignment of center line of the bund, longitudinal and cross section along the center line.
[ii] Capacity surveys.
[iii] Block leveling of sluice and waste weir.
[iv] Canal alignment
1. The position occupied by the center line of a bund in plan is called alignment of bund.
2. The center line of the bund is so located it should be short preferably straight with less cost
of construction and maintenance and the capacity of reservoir being more.
3. The starting and ending point of a bund is chosen on a high-elevated hard ground and a
small hillock respectively with a natural valley to a basin in between. The starting and
ending points forms a good ideal site for the dam bearing of the bund.
4. Set the theodolite near at station A of the proposed starting point of bund.
The project site is located at 1 KM from Shahapur village and about 4.5 KM from Bidar
city. It is proposed to build an earthen dam (bund) across small stream flowing through the site.
A tank project is justifiable as the area to be irrigated in isolated small catchment, which
can not be otherwise included in large scheme. And other methods of irrigation are not suitable
due to topographic restrictions.
The project site is situated in a rocky and highly hilly region with undulations on a ground
and these are huge areas of cultivable land which are fertile enough on the down stream side of the
tank which can be irrigated under this new project.
The stream flows for about 1 Miles to 2 Miles from up stream origin and meander greatly.
The discharge will be large during rainy season.
RAIN FALL:
The rain fall of the area is moderate about 80 cm to 90 cm which is distributed through out
the season and at times in absence of rainfall the people of the area struggle hard for water supply.
EXISTING CROPS:
The people of the area mainly grow maize, sugarcane and paddy. It is proposed to irrigate
for the same time of crops on a large scale.
EFFECT OF SUBMERGENCE:
The area submergence being small under the tank and there is no village or cultivated lands.
Hence cost of acquisition of land is negligible.
GEOLOGICAL FEATURES:
The site reveals that there are two types of rocks;
1) Black cotton
2) Basaltic laterite
CONTOUR SURVEY:
To fix the storage levels of the reservoir or tank contours are traced with a contour interval
of 0.5m of 99.105m RL. Using planimeter, the volume of water is found out from mainly available
formula etc., and all such volumes are computed to get gross storage of the tank. The dead storage
can also be found out. Runoff volume can also be found to find the trap efficiency of the reservoir.
The canal head regulator regulates supply of water entering into the canal and surplus water can
be drained off by waste weir
.
SITE FOR WASTE WEIR:
Suitable site for waste weir is on right of the bund. The excess water is led into a subsidiary
valley after some distance on downstream side and flows separately.
Materials in the form of large amount of laterite block granite stone rocks which can be
quarried and from the deposit of stream.
The objective is to estimate the cost of bund and the sluice. The centre line of bund is fixed
keeping in view that;
1) Length of proposed bund should be minimum.
2) There should be good and hard foundation soil.
3) A natural subsidiary valley is provided at bund site for locating the waste weir.
The centre line of the bund is fixed by flag posts.
CANAL ALIGNMENT:
Irrigation canal can be aligned in any way as follows:
1. Water shed canal which is aligned along natural water side.
2. Contour canal which irrigates only one side because the area on the either side are at a
higher levels.
3. Side slopes of canal: Which is aligned at right angle to the contour and is parallel to the
natural drainage flow, the cross drainage work are required. The canal system consists of;
1. Main canal
2. Branch canal
3. Distribution
4. Minors
5.. Water courses
The various alternative for canal are examined on a to geographical survey map.
Thus the object of canal alignment survey is to estimate the cost of canal which is aligned in cross
drainage work and to determine the extent of area available for irrigation.
The canal is aligned to a gradient of 1 in 400. The cross drainage works and curves must be
available as for as possible. The transition curve must be used between a straight curve.
Procedure:-
1 Set the index mark on the beveled edge of the side of the slide to the scale to which the
figure is drawn.
A= M (F.R.I.-I.R. + 10N+C)
M= The multiplier whose value is marked on the tracing arm next to the scale division.
F.R. = Final reading
I.R. = Initial reading
N = The number of times the zero mark of the dial passes the fixed index mark.
C = The constant marked on the tracing arm just above the scale division.
NOTE:-
1] Use plus sign when the zero mark of the dial passes the fixed index mark in a clockwise
direction, use minus sign when in a counter-clockwise direction.
2] The constant C is to be added only when the anchor point if fixed inside the figure.
VOLUME OF RESERVOIR
1] The reservoir volumes are determined from contour maps. The area enclosed by each
contour line is measured by a plain meter, knowing the vertical distance between the first and
second contour lines and their area. The volume of water between them may be calculated either
by a trapezoidal formula or by the primordial formula.
I] Trapezoidal formula
V= n[(A1+An)/2) +A2+A3+…………………..An-1]
II] Primordial formula
V = Σ [D(A1+4Am+A2)/2]
V = Σ [(A1+4A2+A3)/2]
Where A = Mid area
D = Contour interval
A = Area within successive contour

INTRODUCTION
Transportation is vital phenomenon for the economic development of any region since
every commodity produced whether it is food, clothing industrial products or medicine needs
transport at all stages from production to distribution. There transportation contributes to the
economic, industrial, social and cultural development of any country.
Three basic modes of transportation are land, water and air. The road or the highway not
only includes the modern highway system but also the city streets, feeder roads and village roads,
catering for a wide range of road vehicles and the pedestrians.
The transportation by road is the only mode which gives service to one and all. This mode
has also the minimum flexibility for travel. It is possible to provide door to door service only by
road transport.
The planning, design, construction and maintenance of road and roadway facilities to cater
to the needs of road traffic are covered under road engineering or highway engineering.
CLASSIFICATION OF ROADS
National Highway (NH): are main highways running through the length and breadth of India,
connecting major ports, foreign highways, capitals of large states and large industrial and
tourist centers including roads required for strategic movement for the defense of India.
State Highway (SH): These are arterial roads of a state, connecting up with the national highways
of adjacent states, district head quarters and serving as the main arteries for traffic to and from
district roads.
Major District Roads (MDR): are important roads within a district serving areas of production
and markets and connecting those with each other or with the main highways of a district. The
MDR has lower speed and geometric design specification than NH/SH.
Other District Roads (ODR): are serving rural areas of production and providing them with outlet
to market centers, Taluk Head Quarters, block development head quarters, block development head
quarters or other main roads. These are of lower design specification than MDR.
Village Roads (VR): are roads connecting villages or groups of villages with each other to the
nearest road of a higher category.
HIGHWAY ALIGNMENT
The position or the layout of the centerline of the highway on the ground is
called an alignment. The horizontal alignment includes the straight path, the horizontal deviations
and curves. Changes in gradient and vertical curves are covered under vertical alignment of roads.
1. To survey the various alternate alignments proposed after the reconnaissance and to collect all
the necessary physical information and details of topography, drainage and soil.
2. Compare the different proposals in view of the requirements of a good alignment.
3. To estimate quantity of earthwork materials and cost of alternate proposals.
4. To finalize the best alignment from all consideration.
PRELIMINARY SURVEY
The first step in the preliminary survey is to establish the primary traverse. Following five things
are recommended in the reconnaissance.
TOPOGRAPHICAL FEATURES:
After establishment of the centerlines of preliminary survey, the
topographical features are recorded. All geographical and other man made features along the
traverse and a certain width on either side are surveyed and plotted.
LEVELLING WORK:
Leveling work is also carried out, side by side to give the centerline profiles and
typical cross sections.
SOIL SURVEY:
Soil survey is an essential part of the preliminary survey as the suitability of the proposed
location is to be finally decided based on the soil survey data.
DETAILED SURVEY:
DRAWINGS
The following drawings are usually prepared in a highway project.
I. Detailed plan and longitudinal section
II. Detailed cross section
III. Drawings of road inter sections
IV. Drawings of cross drainage works, if any
The various factors which control the highway alignment in general may be listed as:
1. Obligatory points
2. Traffic
3. Geometric design
4. Economics
5. Other considerations
The selection of route is made keeping in view the requirements of alignment and
the geological, topographical and other features of the locality. However special care should be
taken as regards the geometric design standards of the road for possible upgrading of speed
standards in future, without being necessary to realign the road. After the alignment if finalized,
the plans and working drawings are prepared.
1. Map study: with the help of available topographic maps of the area.
2. Reconnaissance survey: a general idea of topography and other features, field’s
identification of soils and survey of construction materials, by an on-the-spot inspection of
the site.
3. Preliminary survey: topography details and soil survey along alternate alignments,
consideration of geometric design and other requirements of alignment, preparation of plan
and comparison of alternate routes: economic analysis and selection of the final alignment.
Typical plan, longitudinal section and cross section drawing for the new alignment.
4. Location of final alignment: transfer of the alignment from the drawings to the ground by
driving pegs along the centre line of finally chosen alignment setting out geometric curves,
elevation of centre line and super elevation details.
5. Detailed survey: survey of the highway construction work for the preparation of
longitudinal and other construction materials and checking details of geometric design
elements.
6. Materials survey: survey of construction materials their collection and testing.
7. Design: design details of embankment and cut slopes, foundations of embankment and
bridges, and pavement layers.
8. Earth work: excavations for highway cutting and drainage system, construction of
embankments.
GEOMETRIC DESIGN
The geometric design of highway deals with the dimensions of visible features of the
highway such as alignments, sight distance and inter sections. The geometric design of the highway
should be designed to provide optimum efficiency in traffic operations with maximum safety at
reasonable cost and comfort to passengers. The geometric design deals with the following
elements.
Under cross section elements, the considerations for the width of payment, formation level,
the surface characteristics and cross slope of pavement are included.
The pavement surface depends on the pavement type which is decide on the availability of
materials and funds, volume and composition of traffic, sub grades and climatic conditions,
construction facilities and cost consideration. The important surface characteristics of pavement
are the friction or roughness, light reflecting characteristics, drainages of surface water, dust proof,
smoothness etc.
Friction:
The friction between the vehicles tyre and pavements surface is one of the factor
determining the design speed and sight distance requirements in stopping and accelerating the
vehicles.
For the calculation of stopping distance, the longitudinal frictional coefficient values are
0.35 to 0.40 have been recommended by the IRC depending upon the speed.
In the case of horizontal curve design, IRC has recommended the lateral coefficient of
frictions as 0.15.
In our case the camber selected is 1 in 40 since the road surface selected is thin bituminous surface.
SIGHT DISTANCE
The minimum sight distance available on highway at horizontal & vertical curves and at
intersection should be of sufficient length to stop vehicles collision.
Three sight distances situations are considered in this design.
1] Stopping or absolute sight distance
2] Safe overtaking or passing sight distance
3] Safe sight distance for entering into controlled intersection
The absolute minimum sight distance is equal to the stopping sight distance, which is also
sometimes called non passing sight distance.
S.S.D. –Lag distance / Braking distance
S.S.D. (m)= 0278vt+v2/254f
Where v=speed in KMPH
f= longitudinal coefficient of friction
The safe stopping distance various speed recommended by IRC are given below.
20 25 30 40 50 60 70 80 100
20 25 30 45 60 80 90 120 180
The minimum distance open to the vision of driver of a vehicle intending to overtake slow
vehicle ahead with safety against the traffic of opposite direction is known as minimum overtaking
sight distance or the safe passing sight distance.
OSD=0.28vbx5+0.28VbxTx2s+0.28VT
Where
Vb=speed of overtaking vehicle (KMPH).
T=Reaction time of driver [2 sec]
V=speed of overtaking vehicle or design speed (KMPH)
T=√ 4x3.6s /A
S=spacing of vehicle = (0.2Vb+6)
A=acceleration, kmph/s

Speed (KMPH)
40 50 60 65 80 100
Safe overtaking sight distance [m]
165 235 300 340 470 640
It is important than all approaches of intersecting road must have clear view across the
corner from sufficient distance so as to avoid collision of vehicles. This design of sight distance
at intersection may be built on three possible conditions.
1] Enabling the approaching vehicle to change speed
2] Enabling approaching vehicle to stop
3] Enabling stop vehicle to cross a main road.
DESIGN SPEED
The design speed is the main factor on which geometric design elements depends such as
the sight distance, horizontal curve, super elevation, the extra widening of pavement, length of
horizontal transition curve and length of summit and valley curves are all depends on design speed.
Road classification Plain Rolling Mountainous Steep
Rolling Min Rolling Min Rolling Min Rolling Min
ODR (KMPH) 65 50 50 40 30 25 25 20
In our case cross-slope of the country is to be 25% therefore it is a rolling terrain & we are
designing the road as O.D.R So the design speed taken as 40 KMPH.
SUPER ELEVATION:
In order to counteract the effect of centrifugal force and to reduce the tendency of vehicle to
overturn or skid, The outer edge of pavement is raised with respect to inner edge thus providing a
transverse slope through out the length of the horizontal curve, this is also known as cant or
banking.
Super elevation is given by the following relation
e+f=V21/127R
Where
e= rate of super elevation

INTRODUCTION:-
Water for drinking purpose has been appreciated by human race from times immemorial. It
is possible to survive without food and shelter for some days but not without water. It is free gift
of nature to human race. In ancient times human required water for drinking, cooking, bathing etc.,
But with the advancement of civilization the utility of water anonymously increased and now such
a stage has come that without well organized public water supply scheme it is impossible to run the
present civil life and develop the towns.
Water is a basic need. The provision of safe & adequate drinking water to the burgeoning urban
population continues to be one of the major challenging tasks. Lack of safe drinking water
could undermine the health & well being of the people.
Water distribution system aims at improving the supply by minimizing losses & wastage and
unaccounted of water in the transmission mains & distribution. Thus safe, adequate, optimum
quantity & pressure in the water supply can only be ensured by proper & efficient design of
water distribution system.
The most important aspect of any water supply scheme is the sources of supply. The sources
should be permanent, reliable and should provide water with minimum impurities.
SOURCES OF WATER
There are three possible sources of water for our daily use. One is rain water collected from
roof of buildings or special water sheds and stored in ponds.
Another is natural surface water in streams and lakes, the third and most important in rural
areas is ground water stored in the earth.
RAIN WATER
In the regions where there is fair amount of rain fall, rain water is collected from building
roofs or from out doors water shed and stored in ponds.
In some rural areas this is used for all domestic purposes including drinking.
The success of any water supply scheme depends almost entirely on a good and reliable
source of water. The source should be selected keeping in view quality and quantity of water
available from it.
POPULATION
From the census data the present population to be feed should be accurately determined.
The requirements of water for the present population times 30% to 50% for future growth are
estimated. The scheme may be executed in two stages. The first stage of the scheme is installed
for present population. Second stage may be installed by the coming generation at the end of one
or two decades.
FINANCIAL ASPECTS
In initial stages of the scheme the data regarding the availability of funds for the fulfillment
of the water supply scheme should be obtained by the scheme may be adjusted in relation to the
funds available.
Per head rate of consumption should be decided carefully considering all the possible uses.
This rates when multiplied by the population gives the total quantity of water required for the
scheme.
QUALITY OF WATER
Quality of water available from the source will decide the line of treatment of water. The
lesser polluted water is easy to treat.
The sanitary survey of the area surrounding the water source should be carefully conducted
such a survey helps in estimating the possible degree of water pollution.
The area to be covered by the scheme is carefully mapped and it should be studied in relation
to the low laying areas, ridges, density of population etc.,
The future trends of the town should be predicted and large size pipeline should be laid for
the size of the city. The problems of estimating quantity of a water for given factors.
POPULATION
The population to be served by the scheme is estimated with the help of suitable method.
SELECTION OF SOURCE
Source of water may be central pure water tank of village, channel, lake, or river, wells,
streams, springs etc, among these the priority may be given to the source available. The following
important factors are generally considered in selection of a particular source for supplying water to
a city or a town.
QUALITY OF WATER
A potable water is one that is safe to drink, pleasant to taste and usable for domestic
purposes.
These standards are ground in the following tables.
TURBIDITY 5 to 10 mg/1
COLOUR 10 to 20 ppm
PHYSICAL TASTE AND ODOUR Threshold number should be between 1 to 3
TOTAL SOLIDS 500 to 1000 mg/1
P.H. VALUE 6.6. to 8.0
HARDNESS 77.5 to 115
CHLORIDE 250 mg/l
NITRATE 45 mg/l
IRON 30 mg/l
CHEMICAL MANGANESE 0.05 mg / 1
DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
It should be plants on rational lines taking into account the present prospective development
in distinctive zone and with the optimum lay out and the service storage and distribution.
In rural areas, it may be desirable to provide distribution reservoirs of at least a days capacity with
taps all round. It is reasonable to provide one public fountain.Peak distribution factor for rural area
may be taken as 250-300% of average demand or on intermittent basis. The minimum Terminal
pressure in a rural distribution system may be 3-5 m, where the house service connections are given
at 7m.
The distribution of water may be carried out through distribution of reservoir and than fed
into the distribution pipe.
It consists of one supply main from which sub main are taken.
The sub mains are divided into several branch lines from which service connections are given to
the consumer. This method is adopted in localities, which are expending irregularly.
Town planning is a technical and political process concerned with the development
and design of land use in an urban environment, including air, water, and
the infrastructure passing into and out of urban areas, such as transportation, communications,
and distribution networks.[1] Urban planning deals with physical layout of human
settlements.[2] The primary concern is the public welfare,[1][2] which includes considerations of
efficiency, sanitation, protection and use of the environment,[1]as well as effects on social and
economic activieties.[3] Urban planning is considered an interdisciplinary field that includes
social, engineering and design sciences. It is closely related to the field of urban design and some
urban planners provide designs for streets, parks, buildings and other urban areas.[4] Urban
planning is also referred to as urban and regional planning, regional planning, town planning, city
planning, rural planning, urban development or some combination in various areas worldwide.
Urban planning guides orderly development in urban, suburban and rural
areas. Although predominantly concerned with the planning of settlements and communities,
urban planning is also responsible for the planning and development of water use and resources,
rural and agricultural land, parks and conserving areas of natural environmental
significance. Practitioners of urban planning are concerned with research and analysis, strategic
thinking, architecture, urban design, public consultation, policy recommendations,
implementation and management.[2] Enforcement methodologies include
governmental zoning, planning permissions, and building codes,[1] as well as
private easements and restrictive covenants.[5]
Urban planners work with the cognate fields of architecture, landscape
architecture, civil engineering, and public administration to achieve strategic, policy and
sustainability goals. Early urban planners were often members of these cognate fields. Today
urban planning is a separate, independent professional discipline. The discipline is the broader
category that includes different sub-fields such as land-use planning, zoning, economic
development, environmental planning, and transportation planning.[6]
The necessity of town planning can very well be appreciated by mentioning the evil situations which
a town has to face in the absence of town planning.
1. Defective road system resulting in the formation of narrow streets and lanes;
Defective road system is a problem in most countries. It is due to the fact that towns and cities were
never planned. They gradually grew with the help of the developers which resulted in bad road
network giving rise to bad transportation network.
5. Inadequate open spaces for parks and playgrounds resulting in unhealthy living conditions;
This is one big problem in cities. It is very hard to find open spaces in cities. If there are open spaces,
they are later on used up for designing more houses and constructing more buildings. This is more
common in metropolitan cities and mega cities across the world.
