The following information in available regarding the relationship between trap efficiency and capacity inflow ratio.
Find the probable life of the reservoir with an initial reservoir with an initial reservoir capacity of 30 million cubic metres. If the average annual flood is 60 million cubic meters and the average annual sediment inflow is 2,00,000 tonnes. Assume a specific weight of the sediment equal to 1.2 gm per c.c. The usual life of the reservoir will terminate when 80% of initial capacity is filled with sediment.

Following data were obtained from the stability analysis of concrete gravity dam:
i) Total overturning moment about toe=1×106 kN-m
ii) Total resisting moment about toe= 2×106 kN-m
iii) Total vertical forces above base = 50000 kN
iv) Base width of the dam = 50m
v) Slope of the D/S face = 0.8(H): 1(V)
Calculate the maximum and minimum vertical stress to which the foundation will be subjected to what is the maximum principle stress at toe? Assume there is not tail water.

A sluice is an opening controlled by a gate for drawing supplies from a tank, reservoir or canal etc. The barrel of the sluice may be of masonry or cement concrete or R.C.C. pipe. Design a tank sluice for an earthen dam (tank bund) with the following particulars:
Maximum water level (LWL)= +126.0 m
Low water level (LWL) = +123.0
R.L of top of bund (TBL)= + 123.00m
Side slope of the bund= 2:1 on both sides
Top width of bund = 2.0 m
R.L. of sill of sluice = +122.0 m
Bed level of canal= +122.0 m
Side slopes of canal = 1 1/2: 1
Canal bed width = 1.2 m
Canal discharge = 0.2 m3/s
Good foundation or hard rock level = +121.5 m
General ground level= +122.5 m
Design the barrel, cistern etc. Draw the following views:
a) Longitudinal elevation along the centre of sluice barrel.
b) Half plan at top and half plan at foundation
c) End view.
