Concept explainers

Highway Drainage

Highway drainage is the process of extracting and regulating the excess surface water on the pavement by giving the desired slope. The construction of a highway drain helps to divert the water present on the surface, and sub-grade by the means of slope. Highway drainage systems are a necessary part of smooth functioning of traffic, since the highway drainage systems provide proper disposal of unwanted substances from the highways.

Road top level: 106 m
Road bottom level: 101.5 m
Road width: 7.5 m with 1 m wide shoulders
Density of the soil at site: 18 kN/m3
Loading: IRC Class A
C. = 1.8

Since there is a need to supply more water from reservoir A to reservoir B, it is necessary to lay an additional pipe parallel to it. The existing pipe is 0.6m in diameter with a discharge of 0.5m³/sec between the two reservoirs and 6000m long. Assume f = 0.02 %3| for the old pipe and f = 0.25 for the additional pipe. Determine the following: %3D a. If the additional pipe will have a discharge of 0.65m³/sec of the same length and the head difference between the two reservoirs is constant, find the pipe diameter. ANSWER: h= 25m Existing Pipe Q=0.50m³/sec D = 0.697 m в Additional Pipe b. If the additional pipe of 0.6m in diameter is laid out from the original pipe at its midpoint towards reservoir B, find its capacity. Assume f = 0.02. Also solve for the change in the %3D flow or discharge from A to B. ANSWER: Existing Pipe h=25m QA = 0.7232m/s, QB = 0.3923m³/s, %3D AQ = QA – Q = 0.5271m³/s %3D | в `Additional Pipe
