Gravity vs Earthquake Loading in a Reinforced Concrete Building
In the design and analysis of reinforced concrete buildings, two primary types of loading are considered: gravity loading and earthquake loading. Let's compare these two types of loading in the context of a reinforced concrete building:Design and Sizing of Primary Sedimentation Tanks
The design and sizing of primary sedimentation tanks involve several key factors to ensure efficient solids removal and proper wastewater treatment. Here are the key considerations and steps involved in the design process:Design of Coffer Dams
Designing a cofferdam involves several steps to ensure its stability, functionality, and safety during construction activities. Here is a general overview of the design process for a cofferdam: Site Investigation and Assessment: Conduct a thorough site investigationDesign of Dam Filters
Dam filters play a crucial role in the overall stability and functionality of embankment dams. These filters are designed to control and manage seepage through the dam structure, preventing erosion and maintaining the long-term integrity of the dam. In this article, we will explore the significance of dam filters and discuss Terzaghi's rules, a set ofSanitary Sewer Design Example 3
Design a sanitary sewer to serve a population of 5,000 people, if the average consumption is 400 liters per capita per day (lpcd). How many extra persons can be served if the slope is doubled? Using "n" value of 0.013 in the Manning's formula & the return flow as 70%. Check the minimum self-cleaning velocity. Neglect infiltration & inflow?Design of Sanitary Sewer - Solved Example # 2

Hydraulic Design of Inverted Siphon
Shamozai distributary clefts from Machai Branch Canal at RD: 51+000, Machai canal is a part of upper Swat canal system off-taking from Amandara Headworks on River Swat and operated under the control of Dargai subdivision Malakand. Shamozai Disty carries a design discharge of 77 Cusecs,
How to Design Sanitary Sewer using Manning's Equation
Calculate the anticipated future (ultimate) population of area served by the sewer using ultimate population density.< Multiply the ultimate population by per capita average daily sewage flow to obtain the average daily sewage flow e.g. Select or calculate peaking factor (P.F) & Peak hourly waste water flowDesign of Gravity Retaining Walls in Excel - Sloped and Stepped

Design Optimization of Hydraulic Penstock
Design optimization is the selection of most efficient and cost effective diameter of Penstock, taking in to account its cost and benefits. Optimization is the application of mathematical tools and techniques to an engineering sector that will enable the concerned people to select the most optimum option. In hydropower projects optimization
Design of Earthen Channels - Lacey's Regime Theory
The success and efficiency of the irrigation system depends how efficiently and carefully canal network has been designed, these canals may be constructed through different types of soil such as: Alluvial soil, Non-alluvial soil etc. Thus the design criteria for earthen channels depends on the type of soil in which canal is going to be constructed such as:
Design of Septic Tank with Design Example
Septic tanks are now a day’s extensively used in most parts of the world and people are trying to adopt this system of removing human excreted waste.The working principal of septic tank is quite simple the bigger particles that comes with the waste water settles down at the bottom of the tank forms sludge, the greasy
Hydraulic Design of Surge Shaft
Surge shaft is a structure provided at the end of headrace tunnel or pipe to account for water hammering effect in the pipe at its downstream. Surge shaft is considered to be an important component of Hydropower projects, especially for those involving headrace pressure tunnels.
