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 flow

How to Estimate the Design Flow for a Sanitary Sewer

Design flow for sanitary sewer can be find as shown in steps below: 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. Select or calculate peaking factor (P.F)

Chain Survey Steps - Method for Performing Chain Surveying

Chain survey is the simplest method of surveying. In this survey only measurements are taken in the field, and the rest work, such as plotting calculation etc. are done in the office. This is most suitable adapted to small plane areas with very few details. If carefully done, it gives quite accurate results. The necessary requirements for field work are chain, tape, ranging rod, arrows and sometime cross staff.

Process of Environmental Impact Assessment - Stages in EIA

The first step of EIA process to decide whether or not EIA is required. It is a preliminarily study to investigate the negative and positive impacts of a proposed project. The project type and size is used to evaluate the extent of potential environmental impacts. Small projects some time have more adverse environmental effects than larger projects . Therefore, the

How to do Project Scheduling in Primavera - Adding Successors

There are several ways of nominating successors and predecessors for activities. The quickest is to use our mouse. In order to do this we need to turn the relationship lines option " on". Click your mouse over the Relationships Icon in Primavera Software button in the top toolbar. You can now link activities with your mouse. Place your mouse on the bottom right hand

How to Build a Stone Wall?

To assist in your stacking, sort the stone by size; setting aside the smallest pieces to use as shims (these will help level unsteady larger stones). Prepare for this activity by stretching well and always lift using your arms and legs, not your back Shims (shown far right), or smaller stones, help level unsteady larger pieces. Map out the design by digging a trench about 6" deep and as wide as

Lab Report of Los Angeles Abrasion Test on a Given Sample

The Los Angeles test is a measure of degradation of mineral aggregates of standard gradings resulting from a combination of actions including abrasion or attrition, impact, and grinding in a rotating steel drum containing a specified number of steel spheres. The Los Angeles (L.A.) abrasion test is a common test method used to indicate aggregate toughness and abrasion

To Determine the Softening Point of Bitumen

Bitumen is viscous elastic material without sharply defined melting points. They gradually become softer and less viscous as the temperature rises. This is the reason why the softening point of bitumen is determined. Softening point is not a melting point, bituminous material do not melt but instead gradually change from semi solids to liquids on application to heating. Softening point is indicative of the tendency of

To Perform Ductility Test on Bitumen

Ductility is the property of bitumen that permits it to undergo great deformation or elongation. Ductility is deļ¬ned as the distance in cm, to which a standard sample or briquette of the material will be elongated without breaking. Dimension of the briquette thus formed is exactly 1 cm square. The bitumen sample is heated and poured in the molds assembly placed on a plate.

Video on Method of Terrestrial Photogrammetry

The principal is exactly similar to plan table surveying, it may be stated as ā€œThe position of the object with ref to the base line is given by the intersection of the rays drawn to it form each end of the base lineā€ In plane tabling most of the work is executed in the field while in this method it is done in the office.

Steps in Designing a Transfer Floor

Design of reinforced concrete transfer floors, although routinely performed by structural design engineers, is a very challenging task. The transfer floors are commonly used in multi-storey buildings, and they are major structural elements carrying a number of floors. Normally the entire building, 10 to 15 levels, is carried by a transfer slabs. The major problem is the evaluation

Methods of Locating New Stations in Surveying - Ranging and Chaining

In surveying relative position of points are located by measurement from at least two points of reference, whose positions must be known already. Ranging is process of establishing Intermediate points on straight line between the terminal points or stations. Two methods can be employed depending on the intervisibility : Direct Ranging, Indirect Ranging: It Is used

How to Write a Soil Investigation Report | Geotechnical Investigation

Soils reports, also called ā€œgeotechnical soils reportsā€ are prepared by a licensed geotechnical engineer or a registered civil engineer experienced in soils engineering. A soils report may be required depending on the type of structure, loads and location of the structure. The report gives understanding of earth conditions affecting a building. They are required in areas
