Preamble: The general objective of this course is to expose the students to the fundamental
concepts of hydraulic design of different hydraulic structures and to develop the drawings of
minor irrigation structures. This course equip the students to perform the hydraulic design of
minor irrigation structures such as cross drainage works, canal falls and regulators and prepare
drawings of the same. To impart the knowledge on causes of failure and design criteria of
hydraulic structures like dams and canal structures.
Pre-requisite: Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics, Hydrology & Water Resources Engineering
Course outcome : After the course, the student will able to:
Elucidate the causes of failure, principles of design of different components of hydraulic
