Concepts:

Concrete being plastic material in fresh state, has to kept within an enclosure (moulds) till it gain reasonable strength, this temporary structure which has to be built for any concrete member is called Formwork.

Characteristics of Good formwork:

1. Formwork should be smooth get a smooth surface of the required member.
2. It should strictly follow dimensions of the structure.
3. It should be such that it can easily be removed without damaging the surface, so that, a suitable mould oil (release agent) is recommended for easy striking of forms.
4. Deflection is the most important consideration for design of formwork, the limit for deflection varies according to class of the work. For simply supported spans, this limit is not more than span/360.
5. Formwork must be water tight: so that there is not loss of fine material (cement paste etc.).
6. It is strong enough to support the weight of fresh concrete during placing and compacting, and any other loads it may be required to take.
7. It should be cheap, easily available and can be reused several times.

Concepts:

S1 False

The Fiber Saturation Point (FSP) in wood is the stage where the cell walls are fully saturated with water, but the cell lumens are empty. Below this point, typically around 25-30% moisture content, changes in moisture content can affect the wood's mechanical properties like strength, stiffness, and hardness. However, up to this point, the mechanical properties are not materially affected as the water is only being removed from the cell lumens and not the cell walls.

S2: True

Shrinkage in wood takes place due to a reduction in moisture content. This reduction takes place in directions perpendicular to the grain only, while a much smaller change takes place along the length. The experimental results show that wood shrinks and swells the greatest amount in the tangential direction, about half as much in the radial direction, and about 0.1% to 0.2% in the longitudinal direction.

Gross irrigated area = Net irrigated area in a year + Area irrigated more than once in the same year

Additional Information

Gross Crop Area:

• Gross Cropped Area (GCA) is the total area sown once as well as more than once in a given year ( particular year). When the crop is sown on a piece of land twice, the area is counted twice in the gross cropped area (GCA), or counting the area as many times as the number of crops sown (or grown) on the same land.

Gross Command Area:

• Gross command area is the total area enclosed within the project's irrigation boundary that can be economically irrigated regardless of the amount of water available.

Concept:

Velocity distribution across a section:

For flow between two stationary parallel plates:
y = 0, u = 0 and y = t, u = 0

At y = t/2, u = Umax

Average velocity:

where Umax = Maximum velocity, μ = dynamic viscosity, ∂p/∂x = axial pressure gradient , t = distance between two parallel plates.

Coefficient of consolidation: Coefficient of Consolidation is defined as the parameter used to measure the rate at which the saturated clay or soil undergoes compaction or consolidation when they subjected to an increase in the pressure.

There are two types of curve fitting method used to determine:

Logarithm of Time fitting method:
This method was formulated by Casagrande to compute the value of settlement at consolidation U of 100%. The semi-log plot is made from laboratory test results. The consolidation curve using the results is plotted between the value of the degree of consolidation U and logarithm of time taken.

Square Root of Time method:
In this method, the curve is plotted between dial gauge reading as ordinate and the square root of time taken from the consolidation test results. It was developed by Taylor. The value of time required for 90% consolidation and coefficient of consolidation is obtained from the graph.

Concept:

Consider a section of stratified soil as shown in the figure below of varying thickness of each stratum eg: H₁, H₂, H₃ & H₄, with their respective coefficient of permeability k₁, k₂, k₃ & k₄

1) Horizontal Flow (Parallel to bedding plane):

Flow is taking place through all the layers at the same time hence hydraulic gradient is the same in each layer.

(constant)

2) Vertical flow (Normal to bedding Plane):

Calculation:

Given:
k_v1 = 8.5 × 10^-4 cm/s, H₁ = 6.2 m
k_v2 = 38 × 10^-4 cm/s, H₁ = 3.5 m
k_v3 = 12 × 10^-4 cm/s, H₂ = 10 m

Equivalent vertical permeability (k_{eq v})

 
⟹ 11.9 × 10^-4 m/s = 1.19 × 10^-3 cm/sec

∴ The vertical (perpendicular) permeability is 1.19 × 10^-3 cm/sec

The laid pipes are usually tested to ascertain the water-tightness of the pipes and joints. There are three tests that are commonly performed to test leakage of the pipes and are as follows:

1. Air Test - Generally used to test underground and vertical pipes. The escape of air from the leaky joint forms bubbles that can be seen visually.
2. Water Test - Most commonly used for underground house sewer pipes. The drain is plugged at the lower end and the water is filled in the pipe through the upper manhole to maintain a pressure of 1 to 1.5 m depth of water. If there is no drop in the water level in 10 minutes, then there is no leakage from the pipe.
3. Smoke Test - Generally used to detect leakage of existing vertical sullage pipe or rainwater pipes. In this test, smoke is forced into the pipe with the help of a blower to test the leakage.

Leaching: In this process, the land is flooded with adequate depth of water in order to maintain the salinity of a given soil, and to avoid any further increase in its salinity.

Note: Flood irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, surface irrigation are the methods of irrigations.

(i) If a structure is determinate then equations of equilibrium(ΣFx = 0, ΣFy = 0, ΣM = 0) are enough to find reaction, shear force, bending moment, and axial thrust at supports and members.
(ii) The equilibrium conditions do not involve the use of properties of materials and cross-section.
(iii) If the structure is indeterminate then apart from equilibrium conditions extra compatibility conditions (Relation between deformation) are required which depend upon the properties of materials and cross-section.
(iv) If properties of materials are known then exact methods can be used to analyze the structure but if the properties of material are not known then approximate methods may be used.

Plane table surveying:

It is a graphical method of surveying in which the fieldwork and plotting are carried out simultaneously.

Principle:

The rays drawn from different points should pass through a single point i.e position of station point.

Methods:

1) Radiation method:

It is adopted when the points to be plotted are intervisible and accessible from a single instrument station. Orientation is not required because only one instrument station is required.

2) Intersection method:

It is adopted when the points to be plotted are intervisible but inaccessible. Orientation is required

3) Traversing method:

The traverse is directly plotted on the paper by drawing the traverse lines with the alidade. No angle measuring instrument is used.

4) Resection method:

Resection is a general term used or the process of determining the location of the instrument station. The principle of resection is opposite to that of the intersection method.

Concept:
Kinematic indeterminacy:
The number of unknown joint displacements are called the degree of freedom or degree of kinematics indeterminacy. Or in other words, If the number of known displacement components exceeds the number of compatibility equations, additional equations are needed to balance and determine all displacement components. These additional equations required are known as the degree of kinematic indeterminacy.

D_k = Total possible degree of freedom - No. of available support, reactions generate as a result of restrained joint displacement.

In the given figure -
Total possible degree of freedom = 3 (at joint A) + 3 (at joint B) +3 (at joint C)
Total possible degree of freedom = 9
Total number of available restraints = 3 (at support A) + 1 (at support B) + 1 (at support C)
Total number of available restraints = 5
D_k = 9 - 5 = 4
D_k = 4
Degree of freedom (D_k) of a given figure is 4.
