1. (c) The ratio of the water available for use to the water applied is defined as irrigation efficiency.
Various types of irrigation efficiencies are:
M
Note : The water conveyance efficiency accounts for the water losses which occurs in conveyance from
the point of diversion into the canal system to the fields.
Note: The water application efficiency therefore accounts for the water losses which occur during the
application of irrigation water to the field. the common sources of loss of water during its application
to the field are surface runoff from the field and deep percolation.

Thus, if Rf is the quantity of water lost as surface runoff from the field and Df is the quantity of water
lost due to deep percolation to a level far below the root zone, then
W f = W s + Rf + Df
Wf (R f D f )
and a 100
Wf
e.g., In the case of sprinkler irrigation method the water application efficiency may be as high as 80%
while in the case of a surface irrigation method it may not exceed 60%.
It is defined as the quantity of water used beneficially including the water required for leaching to the
quantity of water delivered.
R
Thus, if W u is the quantity of water used beneficially and W f is the quantity of water delivered to the
Wu
E
field then u = 100
Wf
Note : The presence of excess salts in the soil would require that water storage efficiency should be
high in order to keep the salts washed out of the soil.
d
where, ‘y’ is the average numerical deviation in depth of water stored from the average depth of water
‘d’ stored in the root zone during irrigation.
Water distribution efficiency evaluates the degree to which water is uniformly distributed throughout
the root zone during irrigation and hence it is also known as uniformity coefficient.
Higher is the value of d , more uniformly is the water distributed in the root zone which in turn
will result in a better crop response.
It is defined as the ratio of the normal consumptive use of water to the net amount of water depleted
from the root zone.
Thus, if W cu (or Cu or Etc ) is the normal consumptive use of water or evapotranspiration and W d is the
net amount of water depleted from the root zone then

good flow conditions and also the cost of the structure is usually a minimum.

2. The stream at the site should be stable and should have stable banks.
3. For economical design and construction of foundations, a firm and strong sub-stratum should exit
below the bed of the drainage at a reasonable depth.
4. The site should be such that long and high approaches of the canal are not required.

Typically, an increase in compactive effort reduces the optimum moisture content and produces an
increase in the maximum dry unit weight to which a soil can be compacted.
It is to be noted here that
The typical inverted V shape of a compaction curve applies only to soil possessing some amount of
plasticity
In case of pure sandy soils, the maximum dry unit weight is obtained either when the soil is completely
dry or at complete saturation condition.

7. (c) Methods of tunnelling in Rock
The method of attacking the faces of tunnel will depend upon size and shape of tunnel, available
M
Full face method means the whole section of the tunnel is attacked at the same time.
It is suitable for tunnels of small cross-section area say upto 3 m diameter
With the development of jumboo or drill carriage this method is frequently used for the larger
diameter tunnels.
Advantages
As full section has to be attacked , the work is expedited.
Mucking track could be laid progressively, along with the tunnelling.
Tunnelling is continuous.
Disadvantages
Full face attack requires heavy mechanical equipment.
Method may not be 7possible for the unstable rocks.
Limited for short spans.

2. Heading and Bench Method
This method involves the driving of the top portion in advance of the bottom portion, as shown
in the fig below-

or unstable (soft rock).

Heading and Benching Method
Advantages
Simultaneous drilling and mucking is possible.
T
Requires less explosive power than in full face method.
S
3. Drift Method
Rock tunnelling is sometime carried out first in smaller section of the proposed tunnel and then
it is widened.
A
Advantages
(i) Permits correction measures in case of presence of excessive waters.
(ii) Drift helps in providing ventilation of tunnels.
(iii) Quantity of explosive required is less
S
(i) Driving the main bore is delayed until the drift portion is completed.
(ii) Cost of drilling and mucking in small drift is higher.
(iii) Not suitable for large tunnels and difficult rocks.
Drift may be defined as
(a) Centre drift (b) Side drift
(c) Top drift (d) Bottom drift

T
These are the most common types of breakwaters. They are constructed with stone rubble.
S
1. The armour (or cover)
2. The first under-layer
A
3. The second under-layer (or core)
The stability of the section depends upon the weight and shape of the armour block, the interlock between
individual blocks and the slopes to which they are laid. Heavy blocks are the best. Weights of individual stones
M
is around 1 in 1.5.
Very good interlock can be obtained by tetrapods, quadripods, hexapods etc., which are placed “pell-mell”.
Tetrapods have been used for the protection of the sea wall at marine Drive in Bombay.
IE
It is preferred in places where durable rock is available in plenty at economical cost.
Note: Mound type break water results in less damage (due to gradual failure) than wall type breakwater.

8. (c) Raster data This is a series of cells or dots or pixels that represent an image (see figure) Refer data
is obtained when you scan a paper image, blueprint, or photograph. The raster data is a series of cells

to which values are assigned. This column-row format is used to represent geographic data and other
images. Quality of raster data depends upon the cell size. Small size cells increase the reliability
because there are more values to represent the image details. Raster models are simple to create and
use.
Vector data This consists of points, lines and polylines, and arcs. This is similar to traditional approach
of representing objects in a map. They form a group of mathematical equations that generate points,
lines, a series of lines or arcs. Points are represented by coordinates.
Lines are represented by a series of points having coordinates related by an equation. Polylines are
a series of interconnected lines which can be used to create an object. Arcs are smilar to lines and
can be created by a set of points with coordinate pairs. Each one of these basic entities can be given
a name or label.
