Hydraulics 2-CIVL 0018-SUMMER- 2017 Department of Civil Engineering HYDRAULICS - 2 Urban Drainage Design Exercise Date of submission - 31 August 2017 OBJECTIVE: Design the drainage system (cross-section of channels) for the particular rainfall and given catchment area. Design of cross section should be safe for the return period of 25 years or more. OUTCOMES: On successful completion of the problem students should be able to cover all the module outcomes that are mentioned in the module descriptor. TASKS: All students are required to submit individual report and make calculations for the collected data. The report should cover the following tasks: 1. Give the detailed introduction, necessity of urban drainage system and uses. 2. Calculate the peak run off rate (m3/s) for the given precipitation (rainfall) and given catchment area by Rational method or any other suitable method. 3. For the peak run off, design the section of the canal (trapezoidal, triangular, circular or rectangular). 4. Design of the cross-section should be most-economical. 5. Slope of the channel should be for appropriate velocity that does not create erosion. . Report Format  Number of pages: Maximum 10 pages including references list and the appendixes (if any). Hydraulics 2-CIVL 0018-SUMMER- 2017      Line spacing: Generally use 1.5 x line spacing. Start with the title page (including your name) or student number as requested. It is preferable to place figures within the text rather than group them at the end of the report. Give a sequential number to all figures (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3, etc.) Add a brief, informative caption to the figures. Report Sections The Report should contain the following sections:  Summary  Introduction  Methods of designing (steps)  Calculations  Results & Discussion  Conclusions and Recommendations  References  Appendices Successful Report Characteristics of Success Report Component and Specifications General Appearance of the report (Format, Title Page, etc.)  General Appearances such  Same font size & type as border line margins, font throughout the report. size & type etc.  Include all the mentioned  All the mentioned titles not headings (titles) in the more not less. report.  Standard cover page SUMMARY (Maximum Half Page)  Consists of not more than Summarizes the entire study 150- 250 words. within word limits.  State the objectives. Employs concise  Critically describes the statements. methods and materials Contains specific employed, especially if information. they are novel or unfamiliar.  Explain cocisely important results and conclusions.

DELIVERABLE: The report should not exceed 10 pages, starts from the Summary to the appendix (if any). GUIDELINES: Follow the guidelines mentioned below during writing your report:  The report should have a Title Page. Title Page should contain the following information.  College name and logo  Title  Module name and Code  Student name  Student ID  Use page numbers  Use your own words on writing, Times New Roman font size 12  Heading should be with Font Size 12, Bold  Copy and paste from the Internet sources is strictly not acceptable and will be treated as a plagiarism and will be dealt with as per polices given below. Rules & Regulations  If any content or diagram of the report body is found to be copied from the other students then marks will be deducted from both reports.  The purpose of the report is to do some research work so you can consult books in Library or use internet or computer magazines or any other source. Plagiarism Policy  Plagiarised documents, in parts or whole, submitted by the students will be rejected. For the first offence of plagiarism, a student enrolled in undergraduate programme is penalised with a deduction of 25% of the achievable marks on the assessment as per the plagiarism policy statement and is allowed to re-submit the work once, within one week. The student has the right to appeal against the decision made, to the respective Programme Coordinator. Further appeal on decision taken may be made to the Head of the concerned department. If the student is not satisfied by the decisions taken by the department, s/he can appeal to the Plagiarism Appeals Committee.  For the second offence of plagiarism against the student, (committed in any semester after the semester of the student‘s first offence of plagiarism in the tenure of the student in the undergraduate programme), the student is awarded zero in the assessment where plagiarised content was found. The student is not allowed to re-submit the assessment.

Repeated offences of plagiarism by the student (more than two times) are dealt with as per the college policy on Academic Dishonesty as mentioned in the Student Handbook (6.2). All decisions on plagiarism related offences will be communicated to the student by the respective module instructors, using routine channels of communication with students, currently used by the college, preferably on the same day the charges are confirmed or the very next working day. The student has the right to appeal against the decision informed by the module instructor to the respective Programme Coordinator. Further appeal on decision taken may be made to the Head of the concerned department. If the student is not satisfied by the decisions taken by the department, s/he can appeal to the Plagiarism Appeals Committee. In certain cases, the student may be required to appear for an interview with the module instructor, if deemed necessary. The maximum time limit given to a student to raise appeal against the charges of plagiarism is two working days including the day on which the matter is informed to the student. It is preferable that the appeals are made on the same day of the college on which the student is informed of the issue. All appeals must be made during regular working hours of the college.  Late Submission  Penalty for late submission - 5% of the maximum mark specified for the assessment will be deducted for each working day.  Assessment documents submitted beyond a period of f i v e days after the last date of submission will not be accepted and will be marked as zero for that assessment.
