pressure and dynamic decrement in passive earth pressure in designing the
underground structures and foundation shall be considered as given in the IS code.
Load Combination
Structures shall be designed with the following load combinations :
Combination I : Dead Load (DL) + Live Load (LL)
Combination II : Combination I + Wind Load (WL)
Combination III : Combination I + Seismic Force on DL + 50% LL
2 PROPOSED SYSTEM
2.1 Water Supply Zoning
The entire service area within xxx Block has been divided into a number of zones, each
having an overhead reservoir with independent water supply system. An indication of the
proposed water supply zones (total xx nos.) has been given in the RFP as was originally
conceived. Under the present study, a re-thought regarding the zoning of the proposed
water supply system has been given taking into consideration the ground topography,
existing road network, location of the settlements, administrative boundaries of Gram
Panchayats/ Mouzas and physical barriers viz. railway lines and rivers/ streams/ major
drainage courses. Based on these considerations the number of zones proposed is xx,
each having an overhead reservoir with independent water supply system.
Proposed water supply zone delineations with position of the overhead reservoirs is
given in Drg. No. xxxx.
The locations of the overhead reservoirs for each of the water supply zones have been
judiciously selected at an elevated position to ensure even distribution of water supply
over the entire command area, keeping into consideration the land availability for
construction of the same. Locations of the different overhead reservoirs are summarized
in Table 4.
