The document discusses methods for computing volumes of earthwork and reservoir capacities using surveying data. It describes the trapezoidal and prismoidal formulas for calculating volumes. The trapezoidal formula uses the average end area to calculate volume, while the prismoidal formula precisely calculates volumes. Examples are provided to demonstrate applying the formulas to compute volumes of embankments and reservoir capacities based on cross-sectional areas measured at intervals. Corrections are also discussed.

In this ppt I present a method to estimate how much stormwater a catchment
area will produce, and how a drain can be sized to remove this water.
This method can be used to design a simple drainage system, or to determine
whether a proposed drainage system is realistic.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
3. Volume
• In many civil engineering projects, earthwork
involve the excavation, removal and dumping of
earth, therefore it is required to make good
estimate of volume of earthwork. Volume
computation are also required to determine the
capacity of reservoirs.
6. Volume
• Computing of areas and volumes is an important
part of the office work involved in surveying. For
computation of the volume of earthwork, the
sectional area of the cross-section which are taken
to the longitudinal section during profile leveling
are first calculated.
• After calculating the cross-sectional areas, the
volume of earth work is calculated by
• The Trapezoidal Rule
• The Prismoidal Rule.
7. Computation of Volume
Trapezoidal Rule (Average End Area Rule)
Volume (Cutting or Filling)
• V= d [ A1 + An + 2 (A2 + A3 + …….An-1)
2
i.e. Volume= Common Distance x
2
[ First section area + Last section area + 2 ( sum of
areas of other sections)
8. Computation of Volume
Prismoidal Formula
Volume,
• V= d x [ A1 + An + 4 (A2 + A4 + An-1) + 2 (A3 + A5+ ….. An-2)]
3
i.e. Volume= Common Distance x
3
[ Area of First Section + Area of Last Section + 4 (Sum of areas
of even Section) + 2 (Sum of Area of Odd Sections)]
9. Computation of Volume
• The Prismoidal formula is applicable when
there are odd number of sections. If the
number of sections are even, the end section is
treated separately and the area is calculated
according to the trapezoidal rule. The volume
of the remaining section is calculated in the
usual manner by the prismoidal formula. Then
both the result are added to obtain the total
volume.
10. Prismoidal Correction
• The prismoidal rule gives the correct volume
directly. The trapezoidal rule does not give the
correct volume. Prismoidal correction should be
applied for this purpose.
• This correction is always subtractive.
• Prismoidal Correction for the section
• Cp= L (h1 – h2) 2 x S

Side Slope= S:1
Considering traverse Slope = 1 in n
11. Example
• An embankment of width 10 m and side slope
1 ½ : 1 is required to be made on a ground
which is level in a direction traverse to centre
line. The central height at 20 m intervals are as
follows:
• 0.8, 1.2, 2.25, 2.6, 1.9,1.4 and 0.9
• Calculate the volume of earth work according to
• (1) The trapezoidal formula
• (2) The prismoidal formula
12. Example
• Level Section : Ground is level along the
traverse direction
• Here, b= 10 m, s= 1.5, interval = 20 m
• The cross-Sectional Area are calculated by
b
sh

equation
h
• Area= (b + sh) h
b
• Δ1 = (10 + 1.5 x 0.8) x 0.8 = 8.96 m2
• Δ2= (10 + 1.5 x 1.2) x 1.2= 14.16 m2
13. Example
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Δ1 = (10 + 1.5 x 0.8) x 0.8 = 8.96 m2
Δ2= (10 + 1.5 x 1.2) x 1.2= 14.16 m2
Δ3 = (10 + 1.5 x 2.25) x 2.25 = 30.09 m2
Δ4 = (10 + 1.5 x 2.6) x 2.6 = 36.14 m2
Δ5= (10 + 1.5 x 1.9) x 1.9 = 24 .42 m2
Δ6= (10 + 1.5 x 1.4 ) x 1.4 = 16.94 m2
Δ7 = (10 + 1.5 x 0.9 ) 0.9 = 10.22 m2
15. Volume according to Prismoidal
Formula
V = 20 [ 8.96 + 10.22 + 4 ( 14.16 + 36.14 + 16.94) + 2 ( 30.09 + 24.42)]

= 20 x ( 19.18 + 268.96 + 109.02)

= 2647.73 m3

embankment for which the Cross-Sectional

18. Capacity of Reservoir
• The plane containing any contour represents a
horizontal plane and the area bounded by a
contour is treated as the area of the crosssection. The contour interval is the vertical
distance between any two adjacent crosssectional bounded by the contours. The area
bounded by the contour is measured by a
planimeter.
19. Capacity of Reservoir
• Reservoir are made for water supply, irrigation,
hydropower etc. A contour map is very useful
to study the possible location of a reservoir and
the volume of water to be confined. All the
contours are closed lines within the reservoir
area.
20. Capacity of Reservoir
• The area A1, A2, A3,…… An between successive
contour lines can be determined by a planimeter
and if h is the contour interval, the capacity of the
reservoir can be estimated either by the prismoidal
formula or by the trapezoidal formula.
• In practice, the capacity of a reservoir is measured
in terms of volume of water stored up to full
reservoir level (FRL) which is the level of water at
its full capacity.
21. Example
• From a contour plan of a proposed reservoir area,
the following data were found
Contour (m)

Determine
• The capacity of the reservoir if the FRL is 125 m.
The volume below the contour of 100 may be
ignored.
22. Example
• Prismoidal formula can be used when odd number
of section are there So, the volume up to the
contour 120 m is
• V120 = d [ (A1 + A5 + 4 (A2 + A4) + 2 (A3)]
3
= 5 [ (3 + 23) + 4 (8 + 17) + 2 x 13)]
3
= 5 [ 26 + 100 + 26]
3
= 255.33 ha.m
23. Example
• And by trapezoidal formula, the volume, the
formula, the volume between 120 and 125 m is
• V 120-125 = h x A5 + A6
2
= 5 x 23 + 29
2
= 130 ha.m
25. Volume by the trapezoidal formula
• Volume by the trapezoidal formula
• V= h [ First Area + Last Area + 2 (Sum of area of other section)]
2
= 5 x [ 3 + 29 + 2 (8 + 13 + 17 + 23)]
2
=5 x (32 +122)
2
=385 ha-m
26. Example
• The area enclosed by the contour in a reservoir are as follows
Contour

Area (m2) 460

• The top water level is 195 m and the lowest point in the
reservoir is 175 m. Find the volume of water (reservoir
capacity) between 175 m and 195 m
By
• Trapezoidal formula
• Prismoidal formula
Ans: V T=44775 m3
V P= 44016.66 m3
27. Example
• Contour Interval= 5 m
• (i) Volume according to trapezoidal formula
• V= h [ A1 + A5 + 2 (A2 + A3+ A4)]
2
= 5 [ 460 + 3950 + 2(750 + 2500 + 3500)]
