The paper presents the problems faced by the wild Asian elephants due to the construction of Chilla Hydro-electric Project in Rajaji National Park in Uttaranchal, India, a world famous habitat of Wild Asian Elephants. The paper suggests the guidelines for the improvement in the structural/ecological design of various elements so that the migratory route of elephants can be restored, there by restoring the lost continuity between the fragmented habitats of elephants.

These simple breast walls are never seriously designed for the loads and therefore many problems are encountered in the field. The paper presents easy-to-use charts for the design of masonry breast walls up to 5m height, eliminating design calculations. The charts presented herein, will serve as a ready reckoner to the field engineers working in Highway and Water Resources sector and facilitate them in providing techno-economic sections of masonry breast walls quickly.
