2. Design a Sarda fall which is to be constructed on a canal carrying a full supply discharge
√𝐹.𝑁𝑜.
‘Q’ of = + 12 cumec. The other relevant data obtained from the site of the fall
2.8
are as given under;
1
3. Design a suitable cross drainage work with the help of the following data;
Drain data
√𝐹.𝑁𝑜.
i. Full supply discharge ‘Q’ = + 20 cumec
2
ii. Bed width = 18 m
iii. Full supply depth = 1.5 m
iv. Full supply level (FSL) = 210 m

ii. Bed width = 20 m
iii. Full supply depth = 1.5 m

5. Design the first 3 km of a distributory canal which takes off from a branch canal. The bed
of which is at RL 224.0 m and the water depth is 1.70 m. The outlet discharge factor is
1650 hectare/cumec. The gross commanded areas (GCA) are given as:
Out of this command, 70% is the culturable commanded area (CCA). The canal has to be
designed for rabi irrigation at 30% of the CCA (i.e. Intensity of Irrigation). Assume
channel losses at 2 cumec/million sq. m of wetted perimeter and the total losses below 3
km are 0.4 cumec.
i. Plot the longitudinal section of the distributory canal showing the proposed bed line
and the water surface line.
ii. Draw cross-section at every km, the ground level at every 200m along the centre line
of the distributory canal are given as below;
Km R.L. (m)
0.00 225.0
0.20 225.15
0.40 225.10
0.60 225.05
0.80 224.95
1.00 224.25
1.20 224.10
1.40 224.05
1.60 224.00
1.80 223.95
2.00 223.35

2.40 223.20
2.60 223.05
2.80 222.95
3.00 222.80
Design various sections of the channel using Lacey’s method. Taking Lacey’s silt factor as
unity. The other data may be assumed suitably if not given.
