unlined canal giving a seepage loss of 3.3 cumecs per million sqmetres of wetted area is proposed to be lined with 10 cm thick cement concrete lining, which costs Rs. 180 per 10 sq. metre. Given the following data, work out the economics of lining and benefit cost ratio. Annual revenue per cumec of water from all crops Discharge in the Channel Area of the channel Wetted perimeter of the channel Wetted perimeter of the lining Annual maintenance cost of unlined channel per 10 sq. m Assumed additional suitable data, if required. = 3.5 lacs = 83.5 cumecs = 40.8 sq. meter = 18.8 meter = 18.5 meter = 1 Rs.

Question
An unlined canal giving a seepage loss of 3.3 cumecs per million sqmetres of wetted area is proposed to be lined with 10 cm thick cement concrete lining, which costs Rs. 180 per 10 sq. metre. Given the following data, work out the economics of lining and benefit cost ratio.
Annual revenue per cumec of water from all crops Discharge in the Channel
Area of the channel
Wetted perimeter of the channel
Wetted perimeter of the lining
Annual maintenance cost of unlined channel per 10 sq. m Assumed additional suitable data, if required.
= 3.5 lacs
= 83.5 cumecs = 40.8 sq. meter = 18.8 meter
= 18.5 meter
= 1 Rs.
