Hydraulic Engineering (Class Notes)

It is the topic for Civil engineering students.

HYDRAULIC STRUCTURE

For proper growth and maturity of the crops, water is of vital importance throughout the crop period. The water requirement may vary from crop to crop, from soil to soil and from period to period. Again, the total water requirement for a crop is not supplied at a time, but at a fixed interval so that the root zone of the crop may remain saturated throughout the crop period. Generally, the additional requirement is fulfilled by the irrigation system.

DESIGN OF HYDRAULIC STRUCTURE

Genera/.-Dams may be classified into a number of different categories, depending upon the purpose of the classification. For the purposes of this manual, it is convenient to consider three broad classifications: Dams are classified according to their use, their hydraulic design, or the materials of which they are constructed. 4.2. Classification According to Use.-Dams may be classified according to the broad function they serve, such as storage, diversion, or detention. Refinements of these classifications can also be made by considering the specific functions involved. Storage dams are constructed to impound water during periods of surplus supply for use during periods of deficient supply. These periods may be seasonal, annual, or longer. Many small dams impound the spring runoff for use in the dry summer season.
