PROPOSAL OF WATER SUPPLY SCHEME AND NEW TANK FOR 1

DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

1. INTRODUCTION
The area surveyed for the water supply project is Dhummavad village, which is located at
a distance of 20Km in South-West direction from the centre of the Dharwad city on the
longitude 75’0’54”and latitude15’41’. There exist 250 houses with an average population of
7 persons per house. This village lags behind in supply of potable water. The available water
is inadequate due to rapid urbanization, increasing population etc. The bore wells and open
wells are the main source of drinking water in that area.

The available raw water must be treated and purified before they can be supplied to the
general public for their domestic use. In general the public water supplies are mainly
designed from the view point to the quality requirement of drinking water. The available
water must therefore be made safe and good for domestic use.

The proposed design includes construction of water tank and modeling the pipelines
running through the area. The scheme will be designed for a working period of 30 years. The
aim is to provide these houses safe and potable water and meet their demand efficiently.

1.1 NECESSITY OF THE PROJECT

 To provide safe and potable water to the village.

 Insufficient water supply. The existing system is supplying the water at a rate of 40 –
50 lpcd, which is insufficient for the people.

 Supply of treated water.

1.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

 Providing water supply standards to about 100 lpcd.

 Treating the water before supply to public use.

 To make design and maintenance costs more economical.

2.1 WATER DEMAND

Rate of water demand: 100 lpcd

The Department Of Rural Development And Panchayati Raj has laid down the
minimum per capita domestic consumption for rural communities with population up to
20,000 should not be less than 70 lpcd.

Peak factor = 1.5

Total quantity of water required

Q = lpcd x population x 1.5

= 100 x 6000 x 1.5

= 900000 lit/day

= 900 m3/day

2.2 GENERAL DETAILS OF THE VILLAGE

Name of the area surveyed : Dhumavad

Number of house existed : 641

Number of vacant plots : 132

Number of members per house : 7 (avg)

No of bore well : 2

Population as per 2001 census : 3411

3. DESIGN OF OVER HEAD TANK

Capacity of OHT = (100 X 6000x1.5) / 1000 = 900m3

OHT is to be designed for 40% of the capacity of the tank.

Hence volume of tank: 0.4x900= 360m3

Assume Depth of tank = 3m

Free board = 0.5m

Overall depth = 3.5m

Area of the tank = 360/3.5=102.857m2

Diameter of the tank = d = 11.44m say 12m

Therefore the dimensions of the over head tank are –

Height from ground level = 12m

Diameter = 12m

S.D.M. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, DHARWAD


PROPOSAL OF WATER SUPPLY SCHEME AND NEW TANK FOR 11
DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

Overall depth = 3.5m

3.1 DESIGN OF RISING MAIN

From Lake to Water Treatment Plant(WTP)

Difference in elevation Bottom of lake = 595m

WTP = 606m

Therefore total difference in elevation = 11m

Distance between lake and WTP = 100m

Quantity required/day = 900cum/day

Taking f= 0.075 and pump working for 8hrs.

Quantity of water to be carried by pipe = 900 / (8 X 60 X 60)

=0.03125cum/sec.

Assuming the velocity through the pipe = 1.25m/sec

S.D.M. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, DHARWAD


PROPOSAL OF WATER SUPPLY SCHEME AND NEW TANK FOR 12
DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

Cross – sectional area of pipe required A = Q / V

=0.03125 / 1.25

But, A = ∏ d2 / 4 = 0.025, therefore diameter of pipe 20cm.

Provide 25cm diameter CI pipe

Actual area provided = ∏ X (0.25)2 / 4 = 0.0490m2

Actual velocity V = Q / A = 0.03125 / 0.0490 = 0.64 m/sec.

Loss of Head by Hazen William’s Formula

V = 0.85 CH R0.63 S0.54

V = 0.64 , CH = 130 (for new CI pipe) , R = d/4 = 0.25/4 = 0.0625

0.64 = 0.85 X 130 X (0.0625)0.63 X S0.54

S0.54 = 0.64 / (0.85 X 130 X 0.174 )

S = 1.83 X 10-3

Head loss, HL / L = 1.83 X 10-3 = 0.185m

Therefore total head required = 11 + 0.185 = 11.185m.

Assuming efficiency of pump set as 70%

The required HP for pump = w Q H / 75μ

= (1000 X 0.03125 X 11.185) / (75 X 0.70)

= 6.65HP ≈ 7 HP.

Rising Main from Clear Water Reservoir to Over Head Tank

Difference in elevation = 608 – 606 = 2m.

S.D.M. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, DHARWAD


PROPOSAL OF WATER SUPPLY SCHEME AND NEW TANK FOR 13
DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

Height of OH tank = 14m.

Distance = 400 + 500 + 100 =1000m.

Quantity of water required / day = 900cum/day.

Pump works for 8hrs.

Quantity of water to be pumped by pipe, = 900 / (8 X 60 X 60)

= 0.03125cum/sec

Assuming velocity through pipe as 1.25m/sec

C/S area of pipe required, A = Q/V

= 0.03125 / 1.25 = 0.025

But, A = ∏ d2 / 4 = 0.025 , and d = 0.178m = 0.2m = 20cm.

Therefore adopt a PVC pipe of 25cm diameter.

Actual or provided area = ∏ (0.25)2 / 4 = 0.0490m2

Actual velocity, V = Q /A = 0.64m/sec

Loss of Head by Hazen William’s Formula

V = 0.85 CH R0.63 S0.54

V = 0.64, CH = 130 (for new PVC pipe), R = d/4 = 0.25/4 = 0.0625

0.64 = 0.85 X 130 X (0.0625)0.63 X S0.54

S0.54 = 0.64 / (0.85 X 130 X 0.174)

S = 1.83 X 10-3

Head loss, HL / L = 1.83 X 10-3 X 1000= 1.83m

S.D.M. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, DHARWAD


PROPOSAL OF WATER SUPPLY SCHEME AND NEW TANK FOR 14
DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

Therefore total head required = 14 + 1.83 = 15.83m.

Assuming efficiency of pump set as 70%

The required HP for pump,= w Q H / 75μ

= (1000 X 0.03125 X 14.83) / (75 X 0.70)

= 8.827HP ≈ 10HP.

3.2 DESIGN OF GRAVITY MAIN

From OHT to Village

RL of OHT = 608m, RL of end of gravity main = 599.4m

Length of gravity main = 200m

Quantity of water = 0.0104cum/sec and f=0.075

Q=AXV

0.0104 = (∏ d2 / 4) X velocity

0.0104 = 0.785 d2 X velocity, therefore V = 0.0132 / d2

By Darcy – Weisbach Formula,

HL = f l V2 / 2gd

= (0.075 X 300 {0.0132 / d2 }2 ) / (2 X 9.81 X d)

= 1.15 X {0.0132 / d2 }2

Since all the available water head is lost in overcoming the friction

(608 – 599.4) = (0.764 / d) X {0.0132 / d2 }2

Solving for d, d = 0.118m = 11.8cm

DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

Provide 15cm diameter pipe line.

3.3 DESIGN OF INTAKE STRUCTURE

Detention time in the intake well = 20 min

Volume of intake well = Q X D.T.

= 0.0133 X (20 X 60)

= 15.96 m^3

Min height of water required = 1m

Height of F.R.L. = 3m

Diameter of the intake well (D) = sqrt (( 15.96 x 4)/ ((22 x 4 )/ 7)))

= 2m

Total height of the intake well = 3+1

= 4m

Provide 2 m diameter and height of 4 m to the intake structure

1. INTRODUCTION
The arid region of Dharwad district has majority of black cotton soil and farmers
adopt cropping pattern which suits this soil such as cotton, groundnut, wheat, onion, maize,
etc. All these crops require large quantities of water. The New Tank in the village
Dhummavad has been proposed with an emphasis on agriculture.

Bund is a hydraulic structure constructed across a river or stream to store water on its
upstream side. This water is utilized as and when it is needed. As the upstream side is
increased, a large area may be submerged depending upon the water spread of the reservoir
so formed.

3.2 NATURE OF CATCHMENT

The examination of the nature of the catchment is done for computing the run-off
parameters. Generally, catchments with vegetation give good yield and those with porous soil
give more yield. The nature of the catchment is Average since there is no vegetation found
and the soil is loamy clay.

Further the catchment of the proposed tank is examined for the possibility of existing
tanks with ayacuts, their storage capacity, and the ayacuts irrigated by the tank.

3.3 RAINFALL DATA

Rainfall data from the nearest Meteorological Station, i.e. The University of
Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad has been collected for the past 23 years. From the rainfall
data so obtained, the Dependable Rainfall and the Yield of the Catchment has been computed
by using Dependable Percentage value to be 50% of the annual mean rainfall.

The procedure to compute the dependable rainfall is as below

i. The available rainfall for past 23 years is arranged in Descending order by magnitude.

ii. The order M is given by the equation, M=23*(p/100). The rainfall value
corresponding to this order in the tabulated data represents the required dependable
value.

3.8 AREA ELEVATION CURVE


The areas enclosed by the successive contours were calculated using Auto Cad. A
close observation shows that as the value of elevation increases the area also increases a
curve is plotted between area and elevation as shown above.

3.9 STORAGE AREA CURVE


The bund capacity or the volume of storage corresponding to a given area in reservoir
may be calculated either by trapezoidal or prismoidal formula. If ‘V’ is the volume of storage
and ‘h’ is the contour interval, then by trapezoidal formula.

V = h[(A1+An)/2+A2+A3+A4+……..An-1]

A curve is plotted between area and volume as shown below.

4.0 FEATURES OF THE BUND

An earthen bund must be safe and stable during phases of construction and operation.
The following recommendations are generally used for selecting the suitable values of top
width, free board, upstream and downstream slopes, drainage arrangement etc.

4.1 TOP WIDTH

The top width of the earthen bund depends upon the following criteria

• Width of the road on top of the bund

• Practicability of the construction

S.D.M. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY, DHARWAD


PROPOSAL OF WATER SUPPLY SCHEME AND NEW TANK FOR 38
DHUMMAVAD VILLAGE

• Protection against earthquake forces

Following are some of the empirical expressions for top width ‘b’ of the earthen bund in
terms of the height ‘H’ of the bund.

• b=H/5+3 (this is applicable when the height of the bund is low)

• b=1.65(H+1.5) ^1/3 (this is given by USBR)

Top width is assumed to be 2.0m (according to TABLE NO. 2)

4.2 FREE BOARD

Free board is the vertical distance between the horizontal crest of the embankment
and the water level. Sufficient free board must be provided so that there is no possibility what
so ever of the embankment being over topped.

USBR suggests the following free boards:


Nature of spillway Height of dam Free board

Min 2m and max of 3m over


Free Any
the flood level

Controlled Less than 60m 2.5m above top of the gates

Therefore free board of 2.5m is provided

4.3 PITCHING

The upstream slope of the bund is protected from the wave wash by a
layer of stones called as stone pitching. A thin layer of spauls is laid on the
upstream slope and on this a layer of big size, hand packed and roughly
hammered dressed stones is laid. The voids between these big size stones are
filled with small stones which are hammered in.

4.4 UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM SLOPES

5 Sand or gravel with RCC core wall 2.5:1 2:1

4.5 DRAINAGE OF EARTHEN BUND


The water percolates through every earthen bund however it stagnates in the
downstream portion of the bund and over-saturates it. This may result in slip of material and
also results in the failure of the embankment. The draining of the water from the downstream
portion so as to avoid slip is called Artificial Drainage of the earthen bund. This is necessary
when the material in the downstream portion of the bund does not have proper natural
drainage.

In case of drains, a few longitudinal stone drains are provided parallel to the bund
length and its bottom. The cross drains takes the water percolating in longitudinal drain to a
downstream longitudinal drain at some distance away from the toe of the bund. Water from
the downstream drain is collected by clear drains and is taken away from the bund.

The materials provided in the drains for drainage purpose being more permeable than
the material of the dam. As long as the drainage system works properly and efficiently, the
ground on the vicinity of the toe of the dam should be in dry condition.
