WATER DISTRIBUTION IN CITIES

SYSTEM

• THERE ARE FOUR TYPES OF SYSTEMS

1. DEAD END SYSTEM
2. CIRCLE OR RING SYSTEM
3. GRID IRON SYSTEM
4. RADIAL SYSTEM

1. DEAD END SYSTEM

SYSTEM

• THIS SYSTEM IS
SUITABLE FOR OLD
TOWNS AND CITIES
HAVING NO DEFINATE
PATTERN
• ALSO KNOWN AS
BRANCHED SYSTEM

AVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
• RELATIVELY CHEAP. • DUE TO MANY DEAD
ENDS , STAGNATION OF
• DETERMINATION OF WATER OCCURS IN
DISCHARGES AND PIPES.
PRESSURE EASIER DUE
TO LESS NUMBER OF • VARIATION IN AIR
VALVES. PRESSURE.

2. RADIAL SYSTEM
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

• THE AREA IS DIVIDED

INTO DIFFERENT ZONES.
• THE WATER IS PUMPED
INTO THE
DISTRIBUTION
RESERVOIR KEPT IN THE
MIDDLE OF EACH ZONE.
• THE SUPPLY PIPES ARE
LAID RADIALLY ENDING
TOWARDS PERIPHERY.
ADVANTAGES
•IT GIVES QUICK SERVICES
•CALCULATION OF PIPE SIZE IS
EASY.

3. GRID IRON SYSTEM

SUPPLY
SYSTEM

• IT IS SUITIABLE FOR CITIES WITH RECTANGULAR

LAYOUT, WHERE THE MAINS AND BRANCHES ARE
LAID IN RECTANGLES.

3. GRID IRON SYSTEM SYSTEM

• ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

•WATER IS KEPT IN •EXACT CALCULATION OF

GOOD CIRCULATION SIZES OF PIPES IS NOT
DUE TO THE ABSENCE POSSIBLE DUE TO VALVES
ON ALL BRANCHES.
OF DEAD ENDS.

•IN THE CASE OF A • PROVSION OF WATER

OTHER DIRECTION.

3. RING SYSTEM SYSTEM

• THE SUPPY MAIN IS

LAID ALL ALONG THE
PERIPHERAL ROAD.
• THIS SYSTEM ALSO
FOLLOWS THE GRID
IRON SYSTEM WITH
THE FLOW PATTERN
SIMILAR IN
CHARACTER TO THAT
OF DEAD END SYSTEM. ADVANTAGES
•WATER CAN BE SUPPLIED TO ANY
POINT FROM AT LEAST TWO

HYDRO – PNEUMATIC
SYSTEM

• Hydro – pneumatic system

is a variation of direct
pumping system.
• An air-tight pressure
vessel is installed on the
line to regulate the
operation of the pump
• This system shall have
regulate power supply

INDIRECT SYSTTEM
SUPPLY
SYSTEM

• Indirect system is also known

as over head tank system.
• This is the most common of
the distribution system
• It comprises of pumping
water to one or more
overhead tank
• Water collected to overhead
tank is distributed to the
various parts of the building
by a set of pipes located
generally at terrace
