    Study Notes

    Stormwater and Sewage Management

    • Stormwater Quantity is estimated during rainfall events to determine peak flow.
    • Dry Weather Flow (DWF) represents the average flow in sewer systems during dry conditions.
    • Sewage Flow fluctuates based on factors like population and time of day.

    Flow Systems of Sewerage

    • Separate System keeps stormwater and sewage flows distinct.
    • Combined System collects both stormwater and sewage in the same system.
    • Partially Combined System uses a combination of separate and combined systems.

    Layouts of Sewerage System

    • Design Considerations for layout include topography, population density, and land use.

    Capacity of Sewers

    • Design of Sewers involves considering anticipated flow, material choice, and environmental factors.

    Laying Out of Circular Sewers

    • Boning Rod and Sight Rail Method is used for aligning and grading sewers.

    Testing and Maintenance of Sewers

    • Regular inspections and maintenance procedures are crucial to prevent blockages and ensure functionality.
