Rationale:

Diploma holders in Civil Engineering have to supervise the construction, repair and maintenance of canals, head works, river training works, cross drainage works, regulatory and other works . Some of diploma holders are also engaged for preventing water logging and irrigation by tubewells. This subject imparts knowledge regarding hydrology, flow irrigation – storage and distribution system, constructional features of head works, river training works, cross drainage works, causes and prevention of water logging and construction of tube wells.

Learning Outcomes:

After undergoing the subject, students will be able to:

• explain concept of necessity of irrigation in India
• recognize different crops and their water requirements
• define rainfall and runoff
• measure rainfall and read rain gauges and hydrographs
• monitor construction and maintenance work of canal and canal linings
• monitor installation of tubewells and water harvesting techniques
• supervise maintenance and construction work of canal head works and cross regulators
• supervise construction of various river training works
• carry out desilting operation of canals
