 PROPOSED CHANNEL ALIGNMENT AND FLOW
DIRECTION
Trapezoidal Channel
• Heavy rains :
the channel doesn’t overflow as the water is
accommodated in the larger areas at the top of the
trapezoidal channel.

• Velocity of flow :
1 H =0.5m decrease in the effect of viscous forces on the flow
y = 0.24m velocity of water, thereby making it move faster.

B = 0.67
z
• Maximum discharge :
maximum discharge can be achieved with a very
easy construction process (more stability by
geometry itself).

• Seepage loss :
The length of seepage flow of the water is more in
case of trapezoidal section.

• Reducing the flood loss :

The quantity of water increases with depth example
(volume is proportional to depth)

 CONCLUSION

• Using a wider trapezoidal ditch may improve the

hydraulic efficiency of the current ditch and
lower the total cost of the engineering works,
but may present construct ability limitations on
account of right-of way considerations.

• As a civil engineer, one should know how to

compute the structures and decide which
structure is suitable for one chosen place.
