PROCEDURE: 2m Bed

1. The Sluice level at the Ground should be searched on the centre line of the bund such
that there should be provision for dead storage of approximately 10% of the total
volume of water stored in the reservoir. RL of the sluice on the centre line of the bund
2. After establishing the Sluice RL on the centre line, a canal bed slope of 1 in 1000 is
provided and the subsequent points on the alignment should be traced. Bearings for
each of the line traced on the canal alignment should be measured and noted. To trace
the next point, the RL of the next point should be established as follows:
3. RL of the previous point – Arc length/1000.
4. To mark this point, find the staff reading required for this RL as PC – RL and locate
this RL on an arc length of 10 m. Take cross sections at each of these points on either
sides for a length of 12 m at 3 m intervals.
5. Locate/mark the important features like roads, culverts, crops, boundaries, buildings
etc.. on either sides of the canal alignment. As far as possible the at least few points
on the alignment should be permanently fixed with reference to permanent objects
with three readings like distance or angles measured.
6. The length of the canal should be taken at least for about 600m.
7. Where ever Cross drainage work is proposed along the route of the canal, block
leveling should be done of size 50 m x 50m with grid size 10m x 10m.
1) CROP PERIOD AND BASE PERIOD:-

DD
Dept of Civil Engineering, AIT, Chikkamagaluru 7
VI Semester EXTENSIVE SURVEY PROJECT MANUAL-2020

Crop period is the time, in days, that a crop takes from the instant of its sowing to
that of its harvest .Base period for a crop refers to the period of cultivation from the time
when irrigation water is issued for preparation of the ground for planting the crop, to its first
watering before harvesting.

2) DUTY AND OUTLET FACTOR OF A CHANNEL:-


Duty represents the irrigation capacity of a unit water .It is defined as the area irrigated by a
discharge averaging one unit for a specified number of days called the base period or the
duty. It is measured in hectares per cumec (m3/s )
Duty is based on discharge passed through the channel, and thus excluding all losses in
the canal system, is called the “Outlet Discharge Factor” or “Outlet factor”.
3) DELTA:-
It is the total depth of water required by a crop during the entire period the crop is in
the field. It is equal to 8.64 base period/duty metres.
4) CROSS COMMANDED AREA, CULTURABLE COMMANDED AREA AND
INTENSITY OF IRRIGATION:-
Gross commanded area is the total area lying between drainage boundaries which can
be commanded and irrigated by a canal system.
The total area lying between drainage boundaries which are actually irrigated is called
the cultivable commanded area.
Intensity of irrigation is the area actually irrigated in any year to the cultivable
commanded area.
Run off of a catchment area in any specified period is the total quantity of water drainage into
stream or into a reservoir in that period. This can be expressed as (i) centimeters of water
over a catchment or (ii) The total water in cubic metre or hectare-metre for a given
catchment.
Run off calculated from mean annual rainfall (which is the average total rainfall of several
consecutive years usually 35 years) correspondence reading to a average bad years rainfall
(which is the average of total rainfall of several consecutive years usually 35 years)

HIGHWAY PROJECT
This involves the construction of new road. Prior to the construction of road, it is essential to
plan the new project to get maximum utility, minimum cost etc. Following surveys and
investigations are carried out.
a) Route survey
b) Soil survey
c) Material and location survey

ROUTE SURVEY:
The purpose of route survey is to fix the road alignment i.e., to locate the position of central
line of the road on the ground. Route surveys are carried out in three stages.
1. Reconnaissance survey
2. Preliminary survey
3. Detailed survey and location survey.

Reconnaissance survey:
It is carried out to examine the general characteristics of the area. It comprises study of
survey plans, contour maps, geological maps etc. The obstacles like lakes, valleys, ponds,
permanent structures etc should be traced out if not available in the map. Gradient, radius of
curves, proximity of materials and labor details are to be collected during reconnaissance. As
a result of reconnaissance a few alternate alignments may be selected for further study.

Preliminary survey:
The purpose of the preliminary survey is to fix the final alignment for the proposal.
Additional information in respect of routes recommended in the reconnaissance survey has to
be collected. For this, accurate traverse lines are run along the possible routes. After having
collected the details, plans are prepared and best alignment is selected for further study.

Detailed survey and location survey:


It is necessary to fix the centerline of the proposed highway on the ground. Location surveys
are helpful in collecting information for road design, estimation and preparation of detailed
working drawings.

Special considerations:
a. Cutting and filling of earth in an alignment is balanced to achieve economy.
b. Adequate gradient is to be maintained to achieve minimum operating cost.
c. Super elevation is to be provided at curves.
d. Curves should be suitably designed; circular curves should be connected with
transition curves at the starting and end points.
e. Longitudinal profile and cross-sections should also be taken.
f. While aligning roads on hill special care should be taken to align the road along the
side of the hill to avoid landslides.
g. There should be minimum number of cross drainage works.
h. In case of hill roads, block leveling should be carried over a sufficient area.
i. A single datum should be used for level works. Permanent bench marks should be
established at intervals of 250m at or near all drainage structures.

WATER SUPPLY & SANITARY PROJECT


The design of rural water supply project involves the following
1. The examination of sources of water supply.
2. Quantity of water required.
3. Objective of water supply system & water quality standard.
4. Basic design considerations for water treatment plant.
5. Design of water distribution system.
Reservoir > Intake well > Storage tank (Treatment plant)>Over head tank > Distribution
Method of supply, pump design, diameter of pipe, pipe distribution

Source of water supply:


Design consideration for water demand:
Before designing the water supply scheme it is necessary to determine the total quantity of
water required for various purposes. For the available quantity of water, the forecasting of the
population is necessary.

The quantity of water required is fixed depending upon the population and their standard of
living.The existing population of Durga village is obtained. The project components may be
designed to meet the requirements of the future demand for number of years depending upon
their useful life.The design period should neither be too short nor too long. The design is
made for a period of 30 years.

Objectives of water supply system:


1. To supply safe and whole-some water to the consumers.
2. To supply water in adequate quantity and in most economical way, keeping the
overall requirements of the entire region in view.
3. To make water easily available to the consumers, so as to encourage personal and
house hold cleanliness.

Survey work: Survey work for rural water supply project is conducted to obtain
1. Key plan of complete water supply project.
2. Longitudinal section of alignment
3. Plan of water distribution system
4. Block levels at various location

Guidelines:
1. The alignment should be shortest and economical
2. The loss of head should be least.
3. Suitable arrangements for inspection and repairs etc. should be made.

Equipment’s:
Total Station, Dumpy/Auto Level with stand, Leveling staff, Prismatic compass, Chain,
Arrows, Ranging rods, Tape, Cross staff.

PROCEDURE:
DD
Dept of Civil Engineering, AIT, Chikkamagaluru 12
VI Semester EXTENSIVE SURVEY PROJECT MANUAL-2020

1. Fly levelling is carried out from the nearby temporary BM to the starting point of
survey project.
2. Carry out longitudinal and cross sectioning to locate the position of pipeline in the
drawings.
3. Water Treatment Plant (WTP), Over Head Tank (OHT) and Sewage Treatment Plant
(STP) are to be introduced to carry out block levelling.
4. Levelling is also carried out simultaneously, and reduced level of the ground at 5m
interval is noted on the plan. This helps to determine the profile of the ground and
adopt a suitable water supply system. Block levelling is carried out at the site proposed
for new residential layouts.
5. By studying the map carefully, the alignment of pipes and regulating valves are
decided. The over head tanks and subsidiary tanks are to be provided at higher
elevations.
6. During construction, the water pipeline always should be present above the sewage
pipeline.
7. Block leveling: 5×5 or 10×10 blocks are formed on the field and RL at each corner of
each block should be taken. Also the bearing at the starting point of the block should
be taken to decide the alignment of the block.
8. Bearings at points A, B, C and D should be taken i.e corner points of the block and RL
should be taken at each corners of sub blocks. Further survey work to be continued in a
similar manner. A B

9. Village Map is prepared using Total Station.

SANITARY PROJECT:
The end of water supply scheme is the starting point of sanitary project. .Sanitation is the
prevention of outbreak of diseases which are dangerous for the general health of the public in
economical and safe manner. This includes carriage or disposal of human excreta and other
wastes produced from communities, trades etc. Every community produces both liquid and
solid wastes.
Sanitary works are classified as follows:
1) Collection work
2) Treatment work
3) Disposal work

SEWAGE:
Sewage is defined as water or liquid waste of a community. It is highly purifiablein nature
and having high BOD and required to be conveyed in covered conduits.

SEWER:
DD
Dept of Civil Engineering, AIT, Chikkamagaluru 13
VI Semester EXTENSIVE SURVEY PROJECT MANUAL-2020

Cover is an underground conduit or pipe line generally closed but normally not flowing full
used to carry away the sewage.

SEWERAGE:
The process of collection, removal, treatment and disposal of sewage through a physical
arrangement of pipes and plant is known as sewerage system. Sewage is ultimately disposed
of either on land or in water. But before that a certain amount of treatment should be
necessary in order to make it harmless. When disposed on land, methods adopted should be
such that sewage does not result in breeding mosquitoes or flies or spread disease producing
bacteria in to the air. When disposed in to running waters (streams), sewage should not result
in any contamination of water.

UNDER GROUND DRAINAGE SYSTEM FOR LAYING SEWERS:


The underground drainage system may also be proposed with dead end pattern where the
sewage from each house is collected in a sewer laid under the road. The cross drains are
finally connected to the main drain which will be carried to a lowest point or a suitable point
from where the disposal of sewage is to be done. Both water supply and sewerage system are
designed and laid down that the flow is by gravity only.

Survey work: Survey work is similar to the water distribution system.

CALCULATIONS:
Designing the diameter of the sewer for the quantity of sewage produced.

TOWN/HOUSING / LAYOUT PLANNING


The arrangement of various components or unit of a town to attain the significance of
a living organism is known as “town planning”. It demands active imagination and sharp
commerce of the understanding of various needs of society. It has to prepare the layout plans.

A well town carries out its active a creation of civilization.

It is a science as well as art. The science consists of collecting and analysing fact of
town. The art lies in arranging the all components of town. Finally it becomes to well –
planned town with a need of society and form a beauty, convenient, economical and efficient
unit.

Objects of town planning

Following are the objects of town planning

1. Beauty
2. Convenient
3. Environment
4. Health

Principles of town planning

Following are the principles of town planning

1. Green belt
2. Housing
3. Public building and utility
4. Recreation centres
5. Road systems
6. Transport facilities
7. Zoning

1. Green belt:

The provision of green belt on the periphery of the town results in the limitation of
size of the town. And hence, the final size of the town can well be anticipated.

2. Housing:

The arrangement of the housing in a town for the various categories of the peoples at
different location of the zoning with their economy.

It should be observed that there is no development of slums and further, if slums exist
they are cleared by the provision of the arrangement.

DD
Dept of Civil Engineering, AIT, Chikkamagaluru 17
VI Semester EXTENSIVE SURVEY PROJECT MANUAL-2020

3. Public housing

There should be a well-balanced grouping and distribution of various public building


throughout the town. Unnecessary concentration of public building at certain spots of town
should be avoided.

Necessity of town planning:

When the planning of town, the small houses are arranged in better way and appear in
good way than disorder of big place. And also provide the better convenience and
comfortable to the public. Suppose in absence of the town planning, the following evil
situations are developed in a town.

1. Defective road system resulting in the formation of narrow street and lanes
2. Development of slums.
3. Haphazard location of industries.
4. Heavy traffic congestion during the working hour of the day.
5. In adequate open spaces like parks and playground.
6. Lack of essential amenities like electricity, water supply and drainage.
7. Noisy atmosphere.
8. Uncontrolled development of town.
9. Unhealthy condition, etc..,

Site for an ideal town:

The physical characteristics of site play an important role in determining the position
of the proposed town and important features to be considered with respect to the site of the
town are as follows.

1. Availability of natural advantages.


2. Availability of electric power.
3. Availability of communication.
4. Climate condition.
5. Topography of area (contour map).
6. Development of surrounding area.
7. Drainage system of area.
8. Fertility soil.
9. Frequency of flood.

Forms of planning:

To maintain the continuity in the planning process the form of the planning are to be
considered as five forms,

1. Local planning.
2. Country planning.
3. Regional planning.
4. National planning.
5. International planning.

1. Local planning:
The development of plan of the city or town is prepared by keeping the view
