Table 2-5 shows the water requirements for such buildings It may be noted that the requirements mentioned in table 2-5 are for average type of constructions and further they do not include water required for civic or public purposes. , TABLE 2-5 WATER REQUIREMENTS FOR BUILDINGS OTHER THAN RESIDENCES Type of buildings Water requirement in litres per day Cinema and concert halls 15__per seat Factories 50__per worker Hospitals with less than 100 beds 340 per bed Hospitals with more than 100 beds 450 per bed Hostels 135 per head Hotels 180 per bed Medical quarters 135 per head Offices 45 per head Restaurants 70 per seat Schools 45 __per student DESIGN PERIOD LE 2-6 A TABLE 16 NTS OF WATER SUPPLY PROJEC; DESIGN PERIOD FOR IMPORTANT COMPONEN’ No i Components Design period in years | 1 | Clear water service reservoirs at the head 15 works, balancing tanks and service reservoirs 2 | Conveying pipes for raw water and clear water 30 3 | Distribution system, pump house and pipe 30 connections to several treatment units 4. | Electric motors and pumps 15 | 5 | Infiltration works 30 | 6 | Storage reservoirs/dams 30 7 _| Water treatment units 15 | Following are the factors influencing the selection of design period: @ (i) (iii) (iv) (vy) (vi) Sources of water supply like perennial rivers, seasonal rivers, streams brooks or deep wells, etc. influence design period greatly. Any desiga period is suitable for perennial rivers, 50 to 60 years is desirable for seasonal rivers or streams. Deep wells offer maximum flexibility is adopting design period as their numbers can be increased in future Design period is longer for higher availability of finance and it is smaller for lesser availability of finance. If rate of interest of borrowings are lower, then longer design period can be selected, For higher rate of population growth longer design period can be selected For easily expandable units, design period will be smaller. E.g. pipelines fiuings, pumps, wells, etc, offer maximum flexibility for expansion and so we can consider smaller design period for them. Design period should not be more than useful life of the different units and their chances of becoming old and obsolete 2-90 SUMMARY Sources of Water Supply \CE SOURCES FOR WATER SUPPLY schemes — Tn this type of source, the surface runoff is available for wat ‘The usual forms of surface sources are as follows fer supply scheme (1) Lakes and streams (2) Ponds 8) Rivers (A) Storage reservoirs. Each of the above form of surface sources will now be briefly discussed. (1) Lakes and streams: A natural lake represents a large body of water within Jand with impervious bed. Hence, it may be used as a source of water supply See Hocalties, The quantity of runoff that goes to the lake should be accurately determined and it should be seen that it is at least equal to the | expected demand of locality. Similar is the case with streams which are formed by the surface runoff. An elevated lakes ‘mountains. They contain purest form of water as impervious mou clouds and collect rain water directly. Suspended solids settle as vir ino flow of water and hence, we get almost pure form of water. It is found that the flow of water in streams is quite ample in rainy season. 4 it becomes less and less in hot season and sometimes the stream may even ‘become absolutely dry. ‘The catchment area of lakes and streams is very small and hence, the quantity ‘of water available from them is also very low. Hence, the lakes and streams are not ‘Considered as principal sources of water supply schemes for large cities. But they bbe adopted as sources of water supply schemes for hilly areas and small ovens re formed at the top of high mountains or on the slope of tains interrupt ally there is “Phe water which is available from lakes and streams is generally free from Grable impurities and can therefore be safely used for drinking purposes. "@) Ponds: A pond is a man-made body of standing water smaller than lake the ponds are formed duc to excessive digging of ground forthe construction toads, houses, ec. and they are filled up with water in rainy season. The quantity in pond is very small and it contains many impurities Dopond cannot be adopted as a source of water supply and its water can only ised for washing of clothes or for animals only @) Rivers: Many brooks, springs and streams conv dd that rivers are studied more thoroughly than Bre daara of civilization, the ancient man settled on the banks of river, drank vers to find out Water, ate fish caught from river water and sailed down Boon en ae carrance of fanda dimou caapraneine manent De fo study the vegularities of floods and rake ute of flood waters for iriga\e) Reeds Ar a ce usee of fachimanyeariseue auuluannos scien tno BATE Were inseparably bound up with rivers The large rivers constitute the principal source Y cities.

(4) Storage reservoirs: An artificial lake formed by the construc across a valley is termed as a storage reservoir. Whatever may be the size @ reservoir, the main object or function of a reservoir is to store w it stabilises the flow of water. The most important physical characteristic of a reservoir is therefore Gapacity. The topographic survey of the dam site is carried out and Imap is prepared. The capacity of reservoir is then worked out with the contour map. However, currents are not absent in th new areas which are never under water » construction and reservoir creation.
