Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a canal section to carry 10 m³/s of water using Manning's equation. Assume a hydraulic radius of 3 m, a slope of 0.02, and a roughness coefficient of 0.015. What are the dimensions?

💡 Hint: Consider the relationships between area, velocity, and discharge.

Question 2

Analyze how altering the sediment load affects the design of an alluvial channel versus a rigid channel.

💡 Hint: What are the specific design elements that differ due to changing sediment conditions?
