EXPOSED INTAKE STRUCTURE

 EXPOSED INTAKE

Well constructed near the bank of reservoir or sometimes intake well constructed away from the source of water. Exposed intake structures are easy to handle and more common to use because rare of it's parts are inside the water.

Civil Engineering Information Systems.

Civil engineering information systems refer to the use of technology to collect, manage, analyze, and present information related to civil engineering projects. This includes a wide range of software and hardware tools that support various aspects of civil engineering, such as planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation. Some examples of civil engineering information systems include: Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software: Used to create digital models and designs of structures, buildings, and infrastructure. Geographic Information Systems (GIS): Used to collect, store, analyze, and visualize geographic data, such as land use, terrain, and infrastructure networks. Building Information Modeling (BIM) software: Used to create detailed 3D models of buildings and infrastructure projects, which can be used for design, construction, and maintenance purposes. Project management software: Used to manage project schedules, budgets, resources, and communications. Structural analysis...

INTAKE STRUCTURE

  INTAKE STRUCTURE Introduction The structure or device constructed in or near the source of water for the purpose of collecting or taking water from the source of water is called INTAKE STRUCTURE. Hence, main use of intake is to draw clear (free from pollution, sand and other floating material) water from surface source of water like river, canal, dam etc. Generally intake structures are constructed from the masonry or concrete. Water entering in the intakes is discharged to the withdrawal conduits from which water is transmitted(conveyed) to the treatment plant. This discharge is safely done either by natural(gravity) flow or by pump to the withdrawal conduits. SITE SELECTION OR LOCATION CRITERIA FOR INTAKE STRUCTURE Quality of water, cost of conveyance or economy, quantity of water, availability of good foundation and land near the water source are some criteria for the section of intake structure site location. Intake must be well located on the upstream side of any city or ind...

LAKE INTAKE STRUCTURE

  LAKE INTAKE Lake intake generally  formed by submerged intake pipe with bell mouth entry placed at the bed of lake where sufficient depth is available. This intake pipe conveys water to the jack well or sump well and from that water is transmitted to treatment plant using pump mechanism. Water conveyed in  intake pipe is under gravity force and mesh provided with entry port to clean water. Sump well constructed near the shore of lake.

RIVER INTAKE STRUCTURE

  RIVER INTAKE As we know intake should be located at the upstream side of the city so pollution is minimum and this river intake should be sufficiently inside the river water so need of water can be supplied at every seasons of the year. Some river intakes are constructed near the bank of river when sufficient depth is available, some are created away from the bank of river when river bed is soft or unstable near bank, sometimes water level raised by constructing weir on the river and sometimes channel created and water led to the intake tower. This all situations divides river intake into two major types: (1) Single well type intake and (2) Twin well type intake. Parts of river intake are Intake well, Intake pipe and Jack well. River intake well has two parts, lower part is Jack well and upper part is surves pump house. SINGLE WELL TYPE RIVER INTAKE In single well type intakes water is directly enter into jack well through the penstockes (openings) created at different level. As ...

CANAL INTAKE STRUCTURE

Image
  CANAL INTAKE Canal intake structure An irrigation canal used as the source of water when other source are far from the city. Intake structure constructed near the bank of canal. An intake chamber created inside the canal using concrete or masonry having one bell mouth entry pipe inside it. Intake chamber has opening guarded with coarse screen and bell mouth entry protected with fine screen or mesh. Bell mouth entry located at expected low water level of the canal. Water enters from this bell mouth entry and conveyed through withdrawal conduits to sump well or city.

WET INTAKE STRUCTURE

  WET INTAKE Wet intake generally in circular shell type. Tower of intake contains water in side it. This water intake structure tower has water level inside the tower that is practically same as the water level of the source of water.

Statue of unity

STATUE OF UNITY (began in 2013 and completed in 2018) It is the world's tallest statue(twice the statue of Liberty) with a height of 182 (597ft) metres above ground level. The statue can be seen within a 7 km (4.3 mi) radius. The total height of the structure is 240 m (790 ft), with a base of 58 m (190 ft) above FFL hence total height is (240 - 58=) 182 m. It rises 54 metres (177 ft or 40%) higher than the previous record holder, the Spring Temple Buddha in China's Henan province. The height of 182 was specifically chosen to match the number of seats in the Gujarat Legislative Assembly. Statue of Unity has been dedicated to the Nation on the 143rd Birth Anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The previous tallest statue in India was the 41m (135 ft) statue of Hanuman at the Paritala Anjaneya Temple near Vijayawada in the state of Andhra Pradesh. The statue depicts Vallabhbhai Patel responsible for the integration of princely states(562) into the modern Republic o...
