Concept explainers

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.

A contracted from the two ends sharp-crested weir is installed in a channel and has a crest heigh of 7.2 m and a crest effective length of 4 m. The discharge coefficient (Cd) is 1.81.
