Determining the Optimal Thickness of Canal Lining for Enhanced Durability and Efficiency
Abstract: The thickness of canal lining plays a crucial role in preventing soil erosion caused by the thrust of water exerted in the canal due to standing water and the velocity of water flow. An optimally designed lining must be robust enough to withstand these forces while ensuring minimal seepage and maintaining the structural integrity of the canal. Various materials are used for canal lining, each with its own advantages and …
