3. A river intake structure has two sets of intake ports with each port having a width that is 3x the height (or depth). The ports each have a vertical bar rack that consists of 50 steel bars (1.5 cm diameter) with 2.5 cm of clear space between bars. Find the dimensions of each intake port and draw a neat schematic showing each bar rack with appropriate dimensions clearly labeled. b. If the intake ports operate with a water velocity through the bar screen of 0.2 m/s, identify the design flow (in m³/d and mgd) with only one intake in operation. а.

Highway Drainage

Highway drainage is the process of extracting and regulating the excess surface water on the pavement by giving the desired slope. The construction of a highway drain helps to divert the water present on the surface, and sub-grade by the means of slope. Highway drainage systems are a necessary part of smooth functioning of traffic, since the highway drainage systems provide proper disposal of unwanted substances from the highways.
