Abstract: Sedimentation in reservoirs throughout the world are leading to loss of reservoir storage capacitythereby reduces the useful lifetime of dams. Storage reservoirs built across rivers or streams tend tolose their water storage capacity progressively with the passage of time due to sedimentation. After thedesigned sediment deposition capacity of the reservoir, further addition in sediment deposits affectsthe reservoir regulation operations. It’s therefore necessary to assess reservoir sediment depositioncapacity and plan for …

Performance Appraisal of Two-stage On-site Domestic Wastewater Treatment System under Ambient Environment
Abstract: AbstractThe rapid growth in population has rendered the centralized sewerage systems a non-realistic option in sparsely populated areas. Consequently, an on-site wastewater treatment system (OWTS) is a viable alternative and cost-effective solution of sewerage system. Septic tanks with soil absorption systems are a simple mean of onsite treatment of the domestic wastewater. However septic tanks have low treatment efficiency along with several technical and constructional drawbacks. In order to improve …

Simulation Study of Construction Work Zones – A Case Study
Abstract: Rapid infrastructure development paves way to widening and strengthening of highways. During this process, construction work zones are encountered. Speed in the construction work zones is a vital factor to be focused upon, especially on highways. If the speed is high, fatal accidents will occur in the work zone and if it is too low, it will contribute towards the delay, followed by increased queue lengths and thereby increased vehicle …

Effect of Compressibility on Undrained Bearing Pressure of Circular Footing Resting on Two-Layered Clay
Abstract: The present study aims to investigate the behavior of a circular foundation on layered clay of varying properties. There are several solutions for the bearing capacity of footings on two-layered clays, but none of them considered the compressibility of the strata. An underestimation of the soil bearing capacity is the main cause of failures. The typical difficulty in estimating the capacity of soil is its complicated behavior attributed to the …
