Section BAttempt any three o f t h e f o l l o w i n g :
  • a
    How aggrading type of river a nd degrading type of river differ with each other? 10
  • b
    How are the components of a m eander river system formed? 10
  • c
    Explain the various methods of form-based restoration technique. 10
  • d
    Draw the flow chart for natu ral channel design phases. 10
  • e

  • a
    Explain about the mechanics of alluvial rivers. Also discuss on the socio-cultural influence on stream restoration
  • b
    “Stream restoration work influence the social and cultural e nvironment” of the society. Discuss the merits and demerits of this statement
  • a
    “Channel geometry at any particular location reflects the in fluence of upstream controls, notably climate, geol ogy, basin physiography and land u s e , w h i c h determine the hydrologic regime, quantity and type of sediment yield”. Discuss the above statement
  • b

  • a
    How we plan levee and give s alient features of design considerations of levees? 10
  • b
    The following hydraulic data pe rtains to a bridge site of a river. Maximum discharge = 6,000 cumecs. Highest flood level = 104.00 m. River bed level = 100.00 m. Average diameter of river bed material= 0.10 mm. Design and sketch Bell's Bunds including the launching apron to train the river. Assume plentiful availabilit y of boulders near the site
