ABSTRACT
The technical aspect of this project is rainwater harvesting which is

consideredtobecatchmentareasofRamachandraCollegeofEngineering
Campus, Eluru. The campus is situated at the distance of 13 km from
Eluru city in a large area of about 11.5 acres with strength of about 2300
students and more than 250 staff. Water is the natural resource which is
being always in high demands by students and staff If this demand is not
met, then it will lead to water scarcity. Therefore, Rain water harvesting
system can be considered as a best solution for fighting against scarcity
of water Moreover, owing to its simple techniques ease of construction
andinstallationandlowcostofinvestment,thistechniqueagainsuitesfor
implementation inside The campus can meet potable and non-potable
water demands The simple technique tends to increase the greenery in
land and around the campus, increasing aesthetic factor for a proper
residential institute to live in Required data such as catchment areas,
rainfall data, runoff etc. are collected and calculated, Then a recharge pit
of suitable capacity is designed Optimum location of recharge pit was
done using the hydrological analysis from the available data The cost of
the project is also calculated order to conserve the groundwater, this
project was found cost effective and very useful for recharging the
groundwater. It is observed that this project will also be a useful and
valuable resource to other organizations which are planning to promote
rainwater harvesting to supplement existing water systems This project
will also raise awareness of the importance of rainwater harvesting for
recharging ground water. The rain water harvesting in Ramachandra
CollegeofEngineeringcampuscomprisesnumerouswatercollectionand
percolatingpitsatdifferentlocations.Therefore,keepinginmindallthese
positive aspects, Rain water Harvesting is highly recommended for this
campus.
