An open rectangular channel laid at a constant slope is required to carry a maximum discharge of 5 m3 /s and a minimum discharge of 1 m3 /s at a constant velocity of 1 m/s at all depths of flow. Compute graphically or otherwise the top width at the free surface and the depths of flow corresponding to minimum and maximum discharges. For minimum discharge a rectangular channel section of the most economical type may be designed.
Unit weight of materials used in Construction The unit weight of materials is an important factor to consider in engineering and construction projects. It refers to the weight of a material per unit volume, typically
