Design of sewer line means finding out the cross section of sewer and the slope at which it is to be laid to transport the estimated quantity of sewage. Unlike pressurized flow in water supply pipelines, top surface of sewage is in contact with atmosphere and the flow type is open channel flow. Important considerations … Read more
Water is the basis of life. All plants and animals require water throughout their lives. In Irrigation Engineering, we are concerned with requirement of water to the plants. Different plants required different quantity of water for their growth and development. Water is naturally available to the plants through rainfall or natural flood. During the times … Read more

Its studies methodical collection, conveyance, treatment & disposal of waste water to land or water bodies meeting the criteria of pollution load as prescribed by the national … Read more
1.1 Clay Minerals: The geometrical arrangement of soil particle in a soil mass is known as soil structure. The ingredient necessary to give soil deposit cohesion is called clay material. Over 50% of soil deposits whose particle diameter is 0.002 mm or less is called clay. Clay mineral are composed of tiny crystalline substance of … Read more
1.1 Purpose of soil classification: Soil classification is the arrangement of soils into different groups such that the soil in a particular group have similar behavior. Requirement for soil classification It should have a limited number of groups. It should be based on engineering properties. It should be simple. 1.2 Field identification of soil 1. … Read more
1.1 Phase Diagram, basic definition & functional relationship Soil mass consists of solid soil particles containing void space between them. Space between the soil particles is known as void and these void is filled with either air or water or both. The diagrammatic representation of the different phases in a soil mass is called phase … Read more
1.1 Definition of soil and rock Soil are the uncemented aggregate of mineral and decayed organic matter containing liquid and gas in the empty space of solid particles. Types of soil : Residual soil: A soil is said to be residual if it is formed by disintegration of rocks without transportation. Transported soil: A soil … Read more

Nepal’s first state owned cement manufacturing plant, Himal Cement Company Limited was established in 1967 A.D. After the massive earthquake that took place on 12th May … Read more
1)Difference between Electronegativity(EN),Ionization energy(IE) and Electron affinity(EA). Ionization energy Electronegativity Electron affinit IE is defined as the amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from an isolated gaseous atom to produce a cation.Eg: M(g)+IE1 M+ (g)+e – where,M(g) and M+ (g) represent gaseous atom and resultant gaseous cation respectively.2nd ionization energy: … Read more
Total Station and Its Application A total station (TS) or total station theodolite (TST) is an electronic/optical instrument used for surveying and building construction. It is an electronic transit theodolite integrated with electronic distance measurement (EDM) to measure both vertical and horizontal angles and the slope distance from the instrument to a particular point and … Read more
