CROSS DRAINAGE WORKS

1. CROSS DRAINAGE WORKS UNIT –9 LECTURER IN CIVIL ENGG. GP MEHAM SANDEEP

2. Cross Drainage Works-Aqueducts 1. Aqueducts: Classified as: type-I, type-II and type- III depending up on the arrangement of canal passing over the Stream/drain, • Type-I:Structures come under this type where the canal continuous over the stream with its normal earthen section including the banks and earthen slopes. The HFL of the stream shall be lower than the bottom level of the canal trough. • Type-II: Structures where the canal continues over the stream but the outer banks are replaced by outer walls. • Type-III:The canal banks will be discontinues over the stream and the canal water is carried by a masonry or concrete, RC C Box, Pipe of suitable section. The Service and inspection Tracks may be continuous or discontinues.Generally the canal section is flumed and head loss is accounted for. 2. Viaducts: • Similar to type-III aqueduct except the length of the structure is very large compared to the stream or there is no stream/drain existing in the valleys joining the two sides of the structure. 3. Syphon Aqueduct: • The HFL of the stream/drain will be lower than the under side of (bottom level) the canal trough . If the HFL of the stream is above the canal bed it is called syphoned.

3. Cross Drainage Works-Aqueducts 4. Under tunnel (barrel/ pipe)/ Syphon Aqueduct: • Stream discharge carried in the barrel if required by depressing stream bed level to make the headway below the canal. Canal section carried over barrel as it is with head walls to replace the outer slopes of canal partially/ fully. The under tunnel flowing full under pressure is called syphon aqueduct. 5. Buttress type under tunnel: • Steam discharge carried in the barrel if required by depressing the stream bed level to make the head way below the canal and canal discharge carried in the flumed trough (Trapezoidal or rectangular). The abutments and piers raised to the bottom of trough in case of Trapezoidal shape. For continuity of inspection path, a bridge and for non inspection path foot bridge will be provided. 6. Super passage: • Stream discharge carried in the trough normally rectangular shape (1 or more bays) with vertical clearance over F.S.L. of canal. For continuity of inspection path bridge and for non inspection path foot bridge will be provided separately. 7. Canal siphon: • Canal discharge carried below the stream by depressing the canal bed to make the headway. For continuity of inspection path a bridge will be provided separately.

4. CD Works –Level Crossings 8.

33. Cross Drainage Works- Escapes • Escapes & Escape Regulators: See under controlled structures • Escapes are safety valves for the canal system, provided to escape surplus water or excess water from the canal. • Though the canals are regulated, excess rise in water level may take place at a point on the canal down stream as a result of entry of storm water, or sudden reduction in demand or closure of out lets down stream, or faulty water regulation may cause breaches, out flanking or dangerous leaks in the canals banks. • Similar situation may happen in the lift irrigation system, when the pumping mains on the down stream fail suddenly. • Hence surplus escapes are provided: • 1 To control the water levels in such situations and avoid damages to the system. • 2. To empty the canal system for repair and maintenance. • 3. As scouring sluices at the head reaches.
