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.

(d)
A bridge is to be built across a 7.5 m wide almost rectangular river with uniform
flow depth of 2.5 m, bed slope of 1/2000, and perimeter roughness n = 0.030. If a
1.5 m high broad-crested weir is built across the river section to measure the rate of
flow, determine the depth of flow upstream, above, and downstream of the weir.
